Is it worth all the hastle and cost of setting up bays, concrete base, loading and so on?

I really want to start selling the stuf as it will make our lives allot easyer but I just cant justify the expence for the return! Or am I missing something? How do you go about the process?

 

Cheers Rich

mine is tipped on a hardcore/burn off base and i get £6 a ton as it has to be screened... if chip is on a concrete base and the site is inspected i thought it was around £20 a ton. local brick works near me has just gone over to woodchip for supplin heat for their brick drying rooms.. so it'l be worth me puttin bit concrete down as a base with a sleeper wall at rear... they pay £26 a ton delivered in and there only 5 miles from my yard..

all mine is on gravel, it gets lifted and tunred and sometimes bits get in it, the gravel in it is the fine stuff used when Colas (road maintainance guys) covered loads of our roads in that mixed with tar. i doubt id get much for it?

Just leave a foot or so on the ground when loading, don't run your bucket along the floor and you will be ok. But if you have turned it a few times chances are you will have contaminated it.
