Processor hire north east

[Michael h]

Hi all

Anyone know of a mobile firewood processor for hire in the north east (Newcastle) , our usual guy has packed it in.

Cheers

Mike

(our usual guy was Willow woodland products, to save you the effort of suggesting them)

What sort of tonnage and size are you after doing, bloke local to us might be interested if we have a few details I can ask him.

[Justme]

How much you got that needs doing?

 

Max diameter?

 

How soon?

[Michael h]

Thanks both

probably got a couple of days work in the yard at the minute. it's arb waste but mostly nice straight ash. we're used to having a 14" machine with larger stuff put aside for milling. we don't have any machinery on site but can rustle up a helper or two.

looking to get it done in next few weeks before we have another half dozen trees coming in (possibly couple more days processing work)

cheers

Mike

Without machinery you are going to slow things down massively.

 

This week we on one job did 74m3 over 3 long days of all arb waste.

Def not straight or nice. All short bits (see picture)

But we had a tractor to lift the 2m3 boxes away.

 

The other job this week was about 9t of softwood.

73m3 Two people, day one & two 10 hours on site but lost about an hour each day for various reasons. Day 3, 8 hours onsite inc packing away.

Day one 24m3

Day two 30m3 (better wood / pre stacked & less stoppages)

Day three 20m3

30 cube in a day is a pretty good day.

Was that with the Dunn?
