Now thats a good idea, I guess you just chuck the logs in rather than stacking them neatly inside??

 

Could save me a lot of space as I only stack my split logs about 1m high at most. Going higher makes sense.

I have found that a single pallet wrapped with stock fence and topped with a bit of tarp works very well. I made one with 3 pallets as the base and double fence high, this one was not good in the middle.

I've looked at this but thought about standard stock fencing. Deer fence would be better as you could get much more in and not have to worry so much about stacking. The only question I have is how do you get them out of the bottom when you need them? Do you leave an access hole or something?

I start by breaking open the top tier of fencing with a barrow parked below it.

But then I empty them in one go and move it to a sheltered decking by the back door for burning.

I'm doing something simular, I'm using old Gabion casing (square mesh boxes civil engineers use to fill with rocks to hold slopes back), they sit on a pallet lovely and as a bonus they are exactly a cubic meter in capacity. not suggesting its worth buying them new, but they come up at auctions quite often. also the cages off old chemical pallets work well.

I have tonnes of odd ends of stocknetting lying around. This will save folding it up and trying to cram it into the scrap metal![/quote

 

Perfect way to recycle it. There's 100's of miles of the stuff around here, rusting with nettles and brambles growing through.

 

A fair portion of the Highlands remains "Frontier country" even in this day and age. You can still stub your ribs on a dumped tractors steering column diving into a Loch.
