Can you arrange transport John? If so any idea what haulage costs would be to Nantwich?

So how much drier will this year old cord be compared to freshly cut stuff?

My haulier said it would be by the hour @£65 per hour

 

Hope this helps John

You haven't said who you are using as haulier. We are in Shropshire also and we have used Benbow Brothers in the past. Often not the cheapest as they seem to price on how much they need the work rather than by the job. They do have HiaB trailers so are well set up for offloading at delivery points that don't have their own log grabs.

 

If you get more hardwood available next year please give me a shout - I'm all sorted for cord this year.

If you reckon that drying figure is accurate then £45/T for hardwood is a bargain. Lots of wood is being sold this year at £60/T delivered for freshly felled. Pity I haven't the space to store any more at the moment.

Hi Baz,

 

We had a 12 acre wood thinned last year and have gone into the log business! We just thought we would offer some for sale, as we have a bit to get through. I agree, it is difficult to value seasoned wood and £45.00 per ton is perhaps a bargain, it may be best to sell it by the cube. If anyone is interested, best come and have a look.

I’m interested. I’m in south Cheshire about 45 mins away & could collect in an Ifor Williams cattle trailer. I would be after say 10 tonnes of the hardwood but collected in 3 loads. Would that be OK?
