Ipc help...

[fastestfirewood]

Any one know roughly how many cubic meters is in an Ipc steel cage?

I'm guessing you mean IBC which can be a container of 1000litres therefore this will be 1 cubic metre.

I think an IBC holds 1.2m3.......But stand to be corrected!

[Rpennycook]

My IBC's are 1x1x1.2m so 1.2m3

Thanks folks... Do you guys use them to store and season timber in and if so how do you load them into trailers or what ever delivery method you use for delivery to your customers?

[landrover 101]

I would guess a forklift or telehandler would be the best method or tractor with front loader depends what you have available

I have just started to use them for seasoning fire wood for next year. In terms of loading them onto the truck I'm hoping I can tip them in somehow. Many other people use them?

If you want to tip them you ideally need a box rotator on a front end loader but they are quite expensive.

 

Also if you want more storage area than an IPC it's worth looking at potato boxes.

a farmer friend of mine does similar with pallets which he staples a length of ryloc(sheep fencing) round. He can fill them with logs and stack them 4 high in his shed. Cost is minimal.
