If the cords been sat in the woods a while you will ge 60 cube if it's been felled onto the lorry by some of the cord cowboys out there you might get 50. Also depends on species as well.

Had a load if beech in last week 18 inch down been sat 18 months top of the bolsters and the weight ticket was 19.5 happy days shame that the next load was a complete load of tosh.WTF puts holly in a loads at a rate of 50%

 

Why does selling wood freshly felled make you a cowboy?

 

Quite; you either buy green roundwood or seasoned. FTR, no-one down here holds roundwood for longer than possible so there's no such thing as seasoned roundwood on a lorry. If there was, you'd except to pay atleast 50% more for it; for very obvious reasons.

First of all I was having a playfully dig at somebody as I pointed out to sky

 

I beg to differ I know of two forestry contractors selling seasoned beech at not much more than normal.

 

The reason been it's starting to go over and they want rid plus there is a stockpile of cord in the south due to the amount been cut and two years of mild weather.

Maybe where you're to, but not down here. :001_smile: I did say "down here"
