Wholesale Timber?

£40-45t is for standard length straight logs. If yours is arb residues of non uniform size and form then at £20t I'd say you're about right. Stick £10 on for delivery in both instances(minimum). Or process and season yourself and sell for roughly £100 a cube for a quality product. If Nick is buying arb waste at £40t I'd get a wagons worth and give him a call. Like wise if Huck is selling his arb residues at £40t I'm increasing my roadside prices!

I was thinking of starting to store and sell it myself but it is an investment and not a quick turn around and with little businesses I've found cash flow to be the lifeblood of the company.

I've gone down the road of "what can I do to maximise business with the tools and facilities I've got" with the intention to re-invest to then grow or add another feature. Christmas tree illuminations for village or parish councils is popular yet seasonal and pet rescue is also a feature as well as registering with the local 4x4 emergency rescue team as arborists seems to have all the winching wires and 4x4s. My best idea was putting 4x4 tyres on a transit. Raises them by 2" and with the twin wheels at the rear you never get stuck I can climb half way up a wood chip mound lol. £500 for all 6 made by Kuhmo in their Mud-Terrain pattern. The reason for this was getting a transit stuck on a verge in a town miles away and getting that 4.30 phone call from your team leader saying he's stuck can I go help them... Oh and then it's rush hour... Got to bulletproof everything that can go wrong.
