120ltr bags for logs

[kerryp]

Evening all do any members on here actually sell logs from the green 120ltr bags there are a couple of places selling them near to me and on face book seems to be good sellers 

[GarethM]

Do you mean barrow bag ?.

[kerryp]

No.they are green 120ltr like rubble bags 

[daveatdave]

they are not that big only about .12 cubic meters capacity. what is your idea for their use ? 

[GarethM]

I'd probably feel guilty selling such a small volume, and how much are they selling for on Facebook ?.

I have sold barrow bags. 50cm x 50cm x 90cm .22m3  220litres - twice the size

Useful for a couple of regular customers with limited access.

 

Also 45 x 70 nets for similar reasons. Easy to transport and stack.

 

Those smaller bags, I don't see the point. If you tip them out it'll be messy ( use cheaper nets). If you leave them it'll be costly. Barrow bags are about £4 but I get them back eventually and refill multiple times.

So at £35, that's £26 profit after buying the bag and delivery as collection means business rates.

Our coalman reckons his 50kg sacks cost less than £1 for him, but can reuse them a few times - think only about 65 to 70 litres capacity, there must be cheaper single use quality bags out there?

You have a coal man who delivers it in sacks?

Where do you live, 1955?
