Bulk Timber Prices

[davetaz]

Was just wondering what everyone is paying for hardwood delivered to your yard. Obviously going to vary up and down the country and according to species/quantities/transport etc.

I am looking at £50/t for mixed hardwoods at the moment delivered by artic. Interested to see if there is a general increase in the cost of firewood grade timber. Not after any suppliers or specific details just a general idea.

I paid £40 plus VAT per ton delivered in July for firewood grade,mixed hardwoods. A friend of mine has recently paid not much less for softwood.

seems to vary greatly but the general trend seems high end.I have a friend who is head forester on a large estate,been in the job a month,currently selling hardwood at £35 ton roadside and reckons he can improve that to £45 as its flying off the shelves.Another guy i know is commanding £45 ton at roadside for green ash and getting it,its relative because some of these guys are paying £30 ton standing!! I've just bought some green oak for £15 ton,but its roughly tipped on a grass riding by dumper,cut random 3ft-ish,no access for lorries so about the right price IMO
