Looking for an experienced felling contractor to fell oak trees. G63

To explain the basis of the price sought: Green larch is about 660kg to the cubic m. 1 tonne = 1.5 cubic m 1 cubic m of roundwood equates to 2 cubic m of loose bagged logs. Softwood is selling on average at about £60 per builders bag (0.76 cubic m) So there are approximately 2 to 2.5 builders bags per tonne; so 1 tonne of firewood should make between £120 to £150. Forestry Commission data for softwood sales in Scotland reveals average prices of about £40 per cubic m for red logs. This includes sitka spruce, etc whereas larch is a much better firewood. This is a job for a man and chainsaw rather than a harvester so it is likely the timber will be stacked for some time as we cut enough for a load. This should mean that the timber will get lighter as it dries and the customer will get more volume to the tonne. At the end of the day I am always willing to discuss a reasonable offer. Dave

£50 plus VAT (5%) per tonne roadside. The timber can be left tree length, 2 or 3m lengths.

We are based in central Scotland and will have artic loads of larch (20 - 30cm diameter) for sale from about July. Please contact me if you are interested in purchasing some. David

who made the vented bags for you and if you don't mind me asking how much were they? looking to get some but can't find a supplier anywhere. Cheers Dave

Does anyone know from where I can hire a firewood processor for work in Stirlingshire Scotland? May also consider selling cordwood or firewood wholesale if anyone is interested. Thanks
