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.

If you ask an 'owner driver' they will tell you it's a fairer system of measurement, as Soft that has been roadside for several months will give them far less tonnage on a full load than say Hard felled in June.

 

If they sold Soft by Tonnage they would get significantly less per drop.

 

They need to earn a living and this helps them to do that.

Soft is generally nice straight lengths that sit well together, so air gaps are pretty uniform.

 

Hard on the other hand is generally more uneven and sits quite badly, so the air gaps would be difficult to estimate.
