You’ll have to give some more detail on what you are selling. Reading your description you use a range of words.

 

Are you selling standing live trees?

 

How much volume - would it fill a lorry - about 20 tonnes.

 

How straight is the wood - for the mill or firewood.

 

how good is the access from a road that the lorry can get to?

 

To give you an idea, i sold about 2 acres of mixed species, mixed quality with rubbish access and terrain recently. We barely got any profit after the extraction costs. We were forced to fell as the trees were getting dangerous and falling on a main road.
