In the timber market what is the cost of standing oak per cube 2011?

Between 3.50 and 5 pounds is about the going rate I think

[David oakman]

So how much for a cubic metre?

[NI Tree]

there are about 35 cubic feet in a cube meter therefore the maths is about £126 to £176 a cubic meter

hi david, our local saw mill offered £4 per hoppus ft for our oak butts. that's if we delivered them to his yard. we didn't take the offer. all the best.

Are you talking about saw logs or firewood ?

good question. i assumed david's refering to timber market, sawlogs. we were offered £4 per hoppus ft for 20 hoppus ft sawlogs delivered. good grade firewood oak in cords, 25t load = ~£50-60/m3 or so delivered, alledgedly. apologies, don't know any current standing prices for oak saw logs.

I'm sorry for my earlier post the 3.50 to 5 pounds per cubic foot was at roadside UPM tillHill wanted £10 a tonne standing for oak firewood and they were talking about double that if I got any decent butts
