The Poplar is 12"+ rounds 4 metres long lengths about 12 ton altogether also 12 ton of Birch and 3-4 ton of oak and ash. So its about a lorry load! I dont know how you would value a mixed lorry load like that really.

 

Yeah Poplar is a hard wood, dont know why i thought it wasnt probably because nobody thinks to much to it lol.

Do you have to put him a bid in or has he offered it to you at a price?

I got £15 per m3, which was the best offer by about £9 per m3. Transport is the killer so try and find someone local.
