This must vary based on location (we’re in Aberdeenshire) as I just paid £120 for a potato box of seasoned, split and cut beech!

Your comparing apples and oranges.  £65/ton roadside for fresh felled, processor length and diameter (8' *6-12") straight hardwood ready to buck and split and season. Vs your price for the end product.  The ton of the former does.. Not sure...3m³?

Thanks for all the helpful advice. As a result I am getting some green, softwood delivered for £15 a cube.

On a similar note, if anyone has any green wood (or arb waste) that I can process at home then please let me know. I had a great supply when I lived in Hertfordshire but have now moved to Surrey.

You can try registering on the tip site linked from the top of this forum.  I got a local supply by e-mailing local tree surgeons direct and now have a supply set-up before I was aware of the tip site link...

4 years on from OP, just seeing what people are currently paying/selling for freshly felled, cut into rounds, not split, hard and soft?

Sod messing around with more general public than we already do. Firewood and or logs pita. All goes to biomass 🙂

Prices in general for firewood have gone up a fair bit, reckon over 50% since this thread started. Also people are more willing to pay for green wood rather than having to give it away.
