Charge accordingly.....if you are up to your eye balls in finance and a good outlet then hey ho £80 plus but if you have low overheads ie one man band and want to keep hold and look after a few regular customers then £40 .

Just remember the more you charge the more the customer will moan about the log size etc and will go else where .

 

Moral of the story with every job ....DONT BE GREEDY ..keeping busy 5 days week is better then 2 greedy days a week and spending time looking for work when work just flows in being Fare .

£40 a cube is the cost of the cord before any processing bagging or delivery. last 2 or 3 quotes for wood we had were all £60 + vat so £72 a ton and you get 1.5 cube bags to the ton if your selling at this price your paying the customer to buy your logs. even if you get the timber for free and don't pay tax you would make more selling it to the professionals as cord.

Isnt it simple to work out charges anyway? Work out what everything is costing you to get the product to the customers door and then add how much profit youd like to make etc?!
