very busy aug -oct . dead in November I think people shop round. Just about run out but have some dry ash in cord :sneaky2:. Difficult to know how much to do for next winter if there is lots about and get a mild winter will be harder to shift at the right money. I plan to use 1.4 cu metre vent bags with tipping loop on the bottom. Had a quote for 200 at £4.40 ea inc del a bit dear but could get a few seasons out of them. If anyone is interested in getting an order up for a 1000 see if we can get the price down.

Me too!!!! I've never sold so much wood, Made the decision to go the whole hog and stop doing loose loads in favour of the bulk bags this year. It has been received by the customers very well, the feedback is the same every time there is so many different "loose load" sizes they all seem to know what a bulk bag is (of coarse we all know there are many different sizes in bags) Sold over 500 already! Only got enough for another 200 without dipping into next seasons supply, however i've managed to lay my hands on 100 ton of 2 year old ash and as we all know at this time of year "rocking horse poo " springs to mind!!! Hope this cold spell doesn't end!!! :wink:
