My clients 'Xmas tree' weighed 2.2t
Our local tip has a new weighbridge and I thought I'd make use of it out of curiousity.
I tipped first thing then returned for the rest of the wood later this morning.
Only the second time I've ever weighed an entire tree, chip, wood and rakings.
I was so thrilled that I posted this to 'The Dull Club' on FB

Crikey, I would never have thought that was as much as 2.2 tons.

The only other tree I weighed was a Euc which was over 7t

Took the Missus and I 2 days with stump.

  It could become a new hobby for me, 'tree weighing'.

I could run a sweepstake before removal.

Might pay for a new chipper...

Yeah, we love it. Put a big long branch in, then throw some wood on the top of it and the branch acts like a conveyor.
