Labouring for firewood…

[MarkyAB]

Is that a thing? 
 

It’s not something I’d thought about until now, but do arborists do anything like this… having a lifter, shifter, carrier, tea maker for the day in return for firewood?

Probably not, sorry. It'd be more trouble than it's worth from the arborists point of view. Considering team dynamics, established working methods, insurance etc.

 

It'd be a better bet to get yourself on the Tipsite on here I reckon.

and talk to your local traders.  If you have good access some may welcome a local place to drop logs for a  small donation (others may have a use for the logs but if you do not ask you will never know, just do not ask for free stuff, but I think you have that covered already).  The tipsite is more for traders working out of their area so deliveries may not be regular.  You can do a search on here as there are various threads about finding waste for firewood.
