I think if you dig a little deeper into that story you will find it was more the large acreage (like a few hundred acres) that he had under plastic & the large number of caravans for workers (about 250 workers so thats about 60 statics). The law type sites say that for most people this is not a president & councils should not be using it as such.

Looking for WRC saw logs.
-
It could be from anywhere to here (Pwllheli). Phoning round looking for some WRC. So was hoping to get a rough idea so I can see if the road side price will be worth it with the delivery costs. Sort of set a max area to check out based on haulage costs.
-
I thought they used to be planning free but now needed planning? I think domestic ones are ok but Agri / Arb ones need PP. Down load this pdf for details http://www.firsttunnels.co.uk/docs/Planning%20-%20A%20guide%20for%20farmers.pdf A quick google comes up with it needing it & not needing it. Even thought is a single policy each council seems to be winging it alone.
-
I think it only works on larger stoves.
-
Does anyone have a rough idea what haulage costs per tonne/mile? Looking at a full lorry load (18 or 27 tonner) need moving 260 ish miles (one way).
-
I think I would charge more for getting it up those 8 steps than for the wood lol. Ideal job for barrow bags...............
-
Thanks for that. Might be a bit far away & the transport cost be more than the wood would be worth once its here. What does shipping cost per mile per load / tonne?
-
They also need full planning permission. Even for trailer mounted ones
-
Bump? Still looking for a load.
-
Does that price include delivery costs, UK VAT & Import duties? -
I think without tickets you will find it hard. Lots are coming out of all the training centres with reams of paper work in their folders & sadly paper work will win out over experience in this litigations society. Can you get on a training course & get the fees paid for via the job centre?
-
So about £10 of that is for delivery. Making it closer to the £30 the other person paid.
-
Did that include delivery?
-
Wont you get more heat & more control by burning it? Muck heap heaters do work well but do need to be maintained.
-
They are the right way round?
-
Midden = old name for toilet
-
As they say in IT. That sounds like an Id 10 T error Should learn to use their stove better. It has controls to slow the burn & you can put less logs on at once.
-
Also explains the counting with 6 fingers & toes.....
-
He works his socks off & should charge more. Er but not me OK?

I have just had Kindlett's saw blade palax here for two days. Doing a lorry load resulted in .75m3 of saw dust (thats LOOSE filled in a bag not compressed solid wood). The saw blade has about a 3mm or less cut width. How wide is a chain on a processor? If its:- 4mm thats 1m3 5mm thats 1.25m3 6mm thats 1.5m3 Of lost wood & extra wear & tear on the machine & more fuel used to remove it. It is also more waste for you to get rid of if you dont have a market for "dirty" (bark, chips, sticks & chain oil) sawdust.
-
Even taking my time into account its been well worth doing.
-
That 6 x m3 bags is far more than we can do (with a two man team) using a chainsaw & tractor mounted hydraulic splitter. Me & my son roughly recon it would have taken us at least TWO weeks to do that much our normal way.
-
In the end there was three of us. My lad feeding the logs in, Wyn working the machine & me sorting any jams, helping on the big logs, fueling the processor & chainsaw, taking the bags away, moving & bagging the saw dust & general dogs body. We could have done slightly more if we were not bagging the logs but not by much. The bags were moved by the 4 tonne digger on a 4 wire sling. Well within the capacity of its lift. We could have used the tractor & front loader but the turning area would have made it hard work to do so.

Well two long days in the end
