Customers Knowledge

If lime is a problem for log merchants, have you guys not considered flogging it to mills/ turners/ carvers etc. You could sell cheap, but surely that would be better than splitting it and just having to sit on it?

 

And as for you burning yew huck.....well really!

Can't understand this. I wouldn't buy Willow for firewood and I don't bother collecting it myself as I can afford to be picky but if you leave it out for collection for free people turn their noses up. Surely ANY firewood is good wood if it's free?

 

And therein lies the truth, last week I gave away, nay correct that, delivered for free 5 tons'ish of soggy wet Manchester poplar in big horrid scabby lumps, the lad I took it to was pleased to get it I was more than happy to see it go, happy days.

 

Its all fire wood

I have been burning mainly Lime in my showroom stove this winter, about 12% it is a first class fuel.

 

I have also been burning wind blown willow at home, that is also about 12% and burns very well if a bit fast.

 

I find most customers would not know and ash log from a larch one.
