Wow thanks for all of the replies, they are really appreciated. I am looking at selling mostly ash as I will have access to large quantities of it, and I think I am right in believing that it is quite light ( Which means I get more volume per tonne) The problem is I have done the maths and need to get 2 m3 sacks out of one tonne of green timber for it to be viable... Maybe I should look at selling y3 sacks instead.

Hello everyone, I am looking at the possibility of selling firewood as a business. I have hit a bit of a problem with the maths involved and wonder if anyone here can help: When I buy 1 tonne of green firewood from the road side, after processing how many m3 bags would it fill. I understand that there is different weight to volume ratios depending on species, but if you assume 1 tonne for 1 m3 green timber, what are you lot getting after it has been processed? Thanks in advance!
