    Splitting

    Probably get no more than 10 enquiries a year for splitting logs and end up doing most of them at those prices. Just adds a bit more income to the business. Last job was chainsawing and splitting about 10T mixed hard and soft wood from 6" to 24" diameter

  14. Ask around and see where other people get their logs from, and whether they are happy with what they get. Personal recommendation is best
