Up to 200 tonnes large poplar required Northamptonshire

[Big J]

Hi there,

 

Trying to find a decent quantity of poplar for cutting for stickers for a mill I use intermittently in Northamptonshire.

 

Up to 200 tonnes can be taken at the moment, and larger and cleaner the better really. Minimum top end diameter 35cm, cut to multiples of 2.3m.

 

If you can help, please either message me or call Steve at Helmdon sawmills (

01295 760305). It's unlikely he will pick up, but if you leave him a message he will get back to you.

 

He needs around 35-40 tonnes a month ongoing, so could be a useful contact for someone.

 

Many thanks!

Have a look at some past threads Jon as I'm sure I've seen a couple recently with poplar being offered...

The sticks to stick between sawn planks when milling so air can get to it.

I've left a message posing the question.

 

Thanks for the speedy reply folks. Helmdon is an excellent mill and well worth a visit for an awe inspiring morning. Towers of timber, more logs in the yard than I'll ever likely mill in my life and front loaders with grabs that will lift 10 tonnes. It's like a theme park for me!
