Sawdust disposal - options?

[gensetsteve]

Cheapest briquettes I have bought have been £4 for a 10 kilo bag, most are about £5-£6 a bag.

10 tonne would make 1000 bags.

Could you try drying it in your kiln?

Might take a few year before payback after buying briquette machine, but you can get them cheap second hand on the bay.

 

Hotmax are just up the road we used to buy 20 kg for £2.50 really slow seller people want nice dry beach logs. Hot ax is now £3.75 + vat. If you can buy it cheap why make it yourself the machines come from china cost about 20k and last a week before they are scrap.

We're lucky the sawmill is also a farm, all our sawdust goes straight to cattle bedding and the rest in the muck heap and out when it's all spread. Never had a problem with it going out on the fields or as bedding

Sorted - the farm are going to take it for cattle bedding. Already have four builders bags just from last week.

another good use is mulch round new rows of hedge plants etc about 4 inches deep
