to think the thousands of tons i have tipped over a banking for years, do the power stations take arb waste then??the stuff through our chippers, conny etc?

 

Yes they do Stevie but it aint really worth the hassle, min of 28t, Artic access, load it your self so your gonna need a telehandler and it has to be clean, no bits of branches,soil, logs etc etc ! all for 6 quid a ton if ya lucky.

i suppose if you have a big yard and run a few squads in the city it could work well, i remember buzz telling me about it, but i dont have the space, the hard standing, the telehandler or the chips lol. things are diferent now, but a few years ago it would of been a good thing, but you probably wouldnt of got it for free then

I know firewood is at a premium these days but no one down this way seems to want conifer, willow etc. when we sell fire wood. The all ask for 'seasoned hardwood' fussy so and so's. I sometimes mix a bit of poplar in but have way too much and willow is large, hard to cut/split which takes time and costs money. Got a big stack of it that i want out the yard so it goes where ever i can get shot of it as long as it doesn't cost me. I dont bother storing/selling the chip either, too much time/hassle for the money, that goes to farms, customers or whoever wants it!

 

If anyone wants my rubbish wood, PM or call me!

Why don't you mix the willow in with the rest of your seasoned logs? It's still a hardwood.:confused1:
