Green logs

[log supplier]

firewoodman that would of been a laugh to see lol

I sell logs but only when they are dry and seasoned. Otherwise you will lose the customer.

 

I take all my fresh willow/poplar/conifer etc to a guy with a massive straw burner and he gives me £20 a load. I really can do no wrong.

they got caught on the hinges of the dropsides as the gates swung in the wind as the owners let go of them. pulled them right off the wall

I think as long as you tell the customer what they are getting, and the pros and cons of it there is no issue.

Ive got a sheadfull of 4mth old ash and it burns great, I give my neighbour anything else I get in exchange for bass gutiar lessons, hes happy enough sticking it in his woodburner! win win all round.

It's not "win-win all round" for those poor souls who have to listen to your base guitar playing.

i dont think theres anything wrong with selling those logs, but only if the customer knows exactly what it is they are getting. selling such logs as seasoned must surely be against the trade descriptions act and therefore illegal.

 

i just sold a load of green wood tonight as it happens.....but told the customer exactly what it was and gave them the option of going elsewhere...they chose to take what i had. nothing wrong with that IMO

 

I have just sold out of last years logs, just sold a couple of tons of green, but i always tell the customers and let them make there mind up.

Its one of the joys of living in old fishermans cottages, the walls are about a foot thick solid granite and pretty much sound proof

[Justme]

Do those of you that sell it green charge less for it?

 

Justme

[firewoodman]

yes i do.

its only fair as not had to pay the rent on storing the wood in the barn.

 

but on reflection weather the wood is fresh or seasoned, hard or softwood, it is still the same amount of work that goes in to it
