How many cube on artic

[ksl]

we get 44 to 45 m3 on a self loading artic

[R5log]

Work on 1 ton of green wood = 2m3 of 8-10 inch cut and split

 

A lorry load will cost about £1400 at £55 a ton delivered

 

Which turns into about £5000 delivered

[Chopperbob]

Why not buy one and see and let us know that's how we found all found out

 

I don't mind buying and trying !

Was just asking a question

Hi

As a guide how many cubic metres of wood still in the round 3m lengths would you expect to get on an artic. Saying it fills up with wood before it fills up with weight.

Thanks

 

Why do you want to know that figure Bob?

 

Perhaps you want to know what a load will cost you.

 

You will pay tonnage for Hard and meterage for Soft (generally).

 

25 Tonne of Hard will give you 45 Tonnes average if split to 10" (250mm).

 

Does this help?

You mean once you saw hardwood up it gains nearly double the weight????

That's amazing

In this weather he is probably right but I think he means 45 cu metres

Not sure why you are all measuring cord wood in tonnes! Down hear it's measured in solid cubic meters 40% air. I get an artic self loader and it can carry 29 cubic meters of solid wood. So (bit complicated) if you add 40% for air that's the volume of stacked timber laid up in forest. Which is roughly 40m3 sat on the floor all in 2.3 m lengths. The lorry is pretty packed

 

Hope this helps

I've just been offered an artic self loader of wood, but it doesn't have scales

They load it up to 28 cube .........

Most experienced drivers would know whats on there weight wise within a mile of leaving site. I dont understand the volume purchases, far to many variables. Everything I sell has a weight ticket unless its rough old logwood and then the values are discussed over a brew, some head shaking and the sound of sucking through teeth.
