The bags you want for firewood are vented log bags, these have a capacity of .5 cube, .8 cube or 1 cube depending on supplier and size speced.

 

1 tonne bags are usually what are known as builders bags, these have a usual capacity of .5 cube, they are designed to hold a tonne of sand or aggregate. The sides of these bags are pretty dense, that does not allow good air flow through the bag so the logs tend to go mouldy.

 

I have had a couple of batches of bags from Bag Supplies, they are decent quality.

We use the big 1.5 cu metre stripped vented bag. Robust and normally very good but this year its been so wet we have had a few mould problems. Our bags come from lc packaging

How do you handle them at point of delivery?. I use pallets and roll the bag and pallet into the customers garage, they might be a bit to tall and fall over on the tail gate of the trailer. A 1 cu m pallet of hard can be a bit of a handful.

 

But they could allow me to get more product into a drop which on soft would be a bonus.

Not up to date, last lot I got was > 6 months ago.

Good to deal with on the phone and the bags I got aren't too stretchy either.

MCA Kingstone on eBay is quite a bit cheaper than Bag Supplies, even if you only buy 10 at a time he's still cheaper per bag than buying in bulk elsewhere.
