It might be best to winkle out UK suppliers, just in case we return to the sunlit happiness of independence and self governance

Will,

 

I'm sure he meant us too, as for the next few weeks we can bask in the dying embers of our EU membership.

 

Cheers,

James.

Time for a bit of panic buying J?

If I can find it cheaper in the UK I would be more than happy to. Do anyone have any good contacts they are willing to share.

You have to be very carefull here.

 

A, The crates quoted at 1 cm, 2 cm etc are just that, ie that is the overall size of the crate including the pallet its on. So whats advertised as a 1cm pallet will in effect only contain about .75 cu m of stacked timber which in turn will equate to about 1.3 cu m loose.

 

B, Crates are limited in size as they have to be stacked inside a container.

 

C, Crates have to hold together in transport, getting a damaged crate really holds up the unload.

 

D, Unless you are going to repack or tip it into a tipper trailer prior to delivery avoid the 2cm size as they are just to large to handle safely and are VERY unstable on a loader.

 

E, Log length, no more than 250mm, moisture level the lower the better, certainly no more than 20%.

 

 

You will need 2 people to unload a container, one in the container with a pump truck and the other on a teleporter or similar.

 

Most of the better suppliers have sales staff who speak good english so you can always ring them up.
