Right ok well I have still got the option to sell in volume so what measurements do I need to get that sort off volume? What length would I need to cut the sections?

Tonnage 22 divide by 0.55 will give you m3 work the rest out

Simple sums, seriously, even if one left school early.

Just get him to run over a weigh bridge. Follow him there if you've got trust issues. Costs about a tenner...

Well no, but I bet there's one along the way or within 10 miles on a farm/quary/steel works/timber merchant/ waste site/scrap yard/haulage firm....

Not sure if this is right but found it in one of my books "A cord of wood, traditionally fire wood , is 2.4m (8ft) lomg, 1.2m (4ft) high and 1.2 m (4ft) deep, making 3.6 cubic metres (128cu.ft) Roughly half that is air space and the wood will weigh c.2 tons when green or c.1.25 tons after two years seasoning, as a rule of thumb hardwoods weigh 19.8kg per 0.028 cu m (1 cu ft)" if that helps
