Stop giving your logs away...

Not the same material but in the last 6 months we have done more than 10,000 bags of kindling. From 3 different manufacturers all monofilament 40x50 we bounce our bags of kindling and top them off so they stay neat. The cheapest bag took nearly 5kg of kindling the best quality took only 3.5kg. the volume of wood between the bags was more than 30% due to fabric stretching it would not surprise me if bulk bags did a similar thing.

I may be wrong but doesn't the builders merchants 'tonne' bag actually contain 800kg.

Sounds crazy I know

 

 

mabey so with some builders merchants i always by loose so am not sure as to the weight of a bulk bag of building sand as i heard it called in the merchants today!!!!

 

they kept away from using the ton word! thats for sure!!!!!!

I like the revelation that there is roughly 300 logs per M3, I can imagine standing at the splitter counting the logs coming of.....30p...30p...30p, great moral booster!

Is that an alternative to sheep.

I like the revelation that an empty bag measuring 1 x 1 x 1m actually holds more than 1 cubic meter of logs......

Builders' merchants in our area have bags stating minimum contents 800kg

Sold here as 'bulk bag'. No mention of weight

Same here but cube meters, no weight mentioned as I can't weight them and if I was selling by weight I would sell fresh wet stuff as it's heavier! A builders bag of seasoned logs is going to weigh 300k tops.
