Selling methods

[Ryan - Ground Control Ltd]

I have recently given up net bags as there is just too much work in bagging them up/handling, etc. I now only do ton bags or loose with the majority of people preferring the ton bags. My preferred method is selling full truckloads (4 cubic metres), ive found this to be the most profitable and has the least amount of handling. I am considering barrow bags however if I can find some at a decent price.

 

How many logs do you pack into a ton bag? I suppose because it's loose packed you don't get to much in there?

You can't go wrong if you do everything right?

Yeah, all split and seasoned for minimum of a year. All wood is from my own tree work and going out at a steady pace now ;-)

I've been sad enough or bored enough to count the logs into the bulk bags a few times and it averages 170-180 logs or 5 to 6 well stacked wheel barrows:thumbup:

We have packed in the trailer load we now just do the builders bag a lot easier to handle and a lot more profitable we find anyway .

Have a look at certainlywood.co.uk - they sell bulk bags and deliver them on pallets. They seem to raise strong opinions on here but I don't know of another nationwide firewood supply company, and they appear to be doing well.

I ship logs from guernsey to shetland and banding up bags on pallets is almost as bad as filling net sacks
