softwood cord for sale

[treedave]

Hi all,

I've a load of softwood coming to roadside. Its mainly Larch, with some Scots, and occasional Sitka & Douglas in. Its all straight with majority being sub 12" and occasional sub 15". Its all coming from a 5 yr old windblow site that's steep as, so most of the timber has been off the ground, or just touching in occasional places. As a result the dryness is variable but all drier than fresh felled. The larger log and fresh felled is going for fencing etc.

 

Its coming to roadside in the South lake district. Haulage can/will be arranged, as I need weigh tickets for the land agent.

Questions?

hope your getting paid day rate or by cubic metre, as surely by weight youll be short on the dry log from the windblow etc, and buyers will make a killing as the weights will be light against you

The price of the dry blow reflects this, and there's all sorts of grant top up coming into it, even landfill tax top up (!?!). If there wasn't id be paying them to do it! Also the wet hemlock coming out for woodfuel chip is nice and heavy, so swings and roundabouts as usual. It'll be what it is and I'll move on to the next piece, which is gun barrel alder with 3 twigs a top, with some Oak to match. Less of a problem moving that lot I presume:001_cool:

 

AJR68 - got the mail, will be in touch.

How much do you want to pay? Ok, add £10 per ton on and we'll agree at that:sneaky2:.

Seriously, I can get you a rough haulage price, but a postcode gives me (and the Haulier) a better chance of giving you an accurate quote. PM me or use the email link on the 1st post and I'll get back to you when I know.

Sorry about the delays, have had a contractor loose his brakes and damage a rim on the trailer whilst extracting. Fortunately there was a tree for the mighty mog to rest against before jumping the wall into the farmers field. So between searching for a replacement / stop gap and finishing the extraction to ride side I've neglected the quoting, a situation to be remedied as I'm working n the wood in the weather we are forecast tomorrow, today was bad enough!

Hi all,

More of the same coming to roadside now. If you're interested in prices etc, let me know via email or pm here (usually out of phone contact most of day). I have a haulier that's local at this end if it helps.
