This is just theory at the moment, but............

Would you be interested in a timber drying service, for the princely sum of £100.

We would supply a 26m3 hook loader for you to take away and fill up with split logs or billets, and bring back. We will dry said logs to 20% in 2-4 days depending on loads of variables. You pick up the dry logs and empty the hook loader.

What do you reckon, given the shortage of dry sellable timber, and a number of very wet winters.

this service will be based in Lawrenny.

P.M. me or give me a ring 07966 792798

Just to clarify, I assume this is a hook loader trailer pulled by a farm tractor, 26 cube should be under max weight dry but probably overweight wet, from memory max loaded weight for a rig like that is 24 tonnes., cargo weight about 13-14 tonnes depending on the trailer. So the buyer turns up with suitable tractor, takes trailer away, empties and brings back.

 

Dry at £4 a cube is a good deal.

what is the going rate i had a farmer approach me asking if i wanted to dry wood in a kiln he was getting

 

No idea i'm afraid, i don't know anyone doing this. Which makes me think that there must be a market for this service.
