    whats your local competetion? dont forget with a mill you need obviously,1/timber to mill, 2/a loader?forklift or tractor,3/ storage,,(you`ll be suprised how quick you fill the yard,) if you`ve got all that covered, and good contacts to sell the end product, then hey,,,sure beats office work, just not as consistant wages,,,,,speak to other tree surgeons,countryside services,ranagers etc, see if there interested , or go halfs on a mill?

    its a good question,,,, we manage about 1m3 with a riko 11Ar spliter every 45 mins, if its nice rings under 18inch,,,,,,, from arb waste. I question buying in artic loads of straight firewood at £40 per ton,+ £10 per ton delivery, so a ton on average producing 1.5 cubic meters (presuming the timber was green when delivered)= I charge £80 per m3, so 1.5 m3 from the ton would return me £120,,,,after costs of,,,,,,,£50 wood,then add labour,storage(ie yard rent)fuel for delivery, cubic net bags, ,,I cant see it makes commercial sense unless you have a fancy bit of £15k kit,(processor) plus £10k worth of loader,,,,(which you need a return on) then i see why your m3 price must be £100 plus! I think people selling arb waste firewood can afford to charge less for the end product as we`ve usally been paid to remove it, but it takes longer than processor timber!
