Did they ask for proof that your under the threshold? And before they called have you contacted them or not made any contact at all?

Hi guys we purchased out first ever load of cube a couple of weeks back and just wondering how much it costs you hlguys to produce logs per cube? Price includes cost of timber, labour, fuel, so effectively to turn the lengths into split logs!. From some guesstimate mathematics it's looking like it is costing me around £60 to £70 per cube crate to produce. What do you guys think on that, I'm not sure what to expect and i have only got a processor, no log table so was loading corn onto forks of telehandler and manually loading the machine, same machine was then having to move and stack crates so it did eat up time, and there was myself and a lavourer who was helping with the heavy lifting as I've cracked my ribs!! Feedback as always is really appreciated

Hi everyone I've been all over the show and admittedly havnt taken much notice of the woodsure scheme. I believe it comes into force in england at the start of may? Is it compulsory? Has anyone applied to it? If your like me producing seasoned logs in cages mostly outside and covered how can you reliably keep below 20% in winter even though you know and I know logs are dry in the centre If you import kiln dried logs or buy in from another woodsure supplier to sell on do you need to be woodsure accredited? It just seems like a money making scheme, I'm going through a tough period with losing barn space etc Also it's not a main business more sideline for money over the winter. Does anyone who sells logs need to be woodsure compliant? I.e farmers son types and tree surgeons aswell? Any help is most appreciated, just been reading the woodsure website and all it foes is waffle on about how you should burn dry wood as were wood gives out particles, Clearly there to scare customers/the public than actually help people like myself, the supplier.

Havnt been on arb talk much lately and havnt been doing much firewood lately but been back on it today! Processing arb waste with our dalen 2054

Has anyone imported since brexit and are you a non v.a.t registered company/sole trader like myself? I've looked into getting a container load as ran out of wood but they're apprehensive about supplying me and that I may need an EORI Number. I will call hmrc in the morning. Any help or advice would be really appreciated

I meant logs not drugs! Cats out of the bag now isnt it!

Hi everyone I have found myself in need of split seasoned/ dry/kiln dried firewood as ran out of stock. Need a.s.a.p and can take large amounts! Anyone around Hertfordshire supply firewood wholesale or can deliver to Hertfordshire? Failing that interested in seasoned/dry ish cord wood that I can process into crates and stack in barn and hope it will be dry enough to sell in a few weeks Any help would be most appreciated Best wishes William

I have emailed you:)

Do you or would you be willing to supply firewood in bulk wholesale? I'm also in Hertfordshire

Hi everyone I remember following few posts on this topic back when I first joined this chat. I'm hoping to speak to people who actively plant up new Woodlands on their land. I'd be wanting it for a future crop for our firewood business. So can someone help me shed light on the practicality if doing this. I.e, what tree crop to plant? Thinking of birch? Cost of saplings? Recommended nurseries to look at fir getting the saplings? Realistic time of growth for your chosen trees, time how long till harvest? How much land do you think would need to be planted (minimum)to make it viable? Finally I truly believe we should all be actively pushing for replanting of trees. Any help would be most appreciated

We are based in broxbourne area and have a processor if you still need this? I can also do days chainsawing logs into rings ready for splitting. 07759-245-611 Cheers

Hows everyone's year started off?

Ah good, for a moment I was imagining a couple of blokes at each end lifting them on by hand!

Ah ok, what's that, 7 bags an hour, seems very good going, how was ya loading them onto the processor

175 bags for that pile, in 4 short ish days seems good going! How many hours in total do you reckon you did? And was it for another firewood merchant or for someone for private use?

I'm Interested in ibc or any suitable cage for storing logs in, we are in Hertfordshire and would be lookingto get a large number of them. Cheers

I've pm you

Just got back from apf today, saw some good machines there, was contemplating getting a new splitter and processor but just a thought ATM, any of you guys go?

Hows everyone been getting on, I haven't been doing much lately but Did abit of work/logs with me gf the other day! Starting to get back into it. Had issues with my processor aswell

We've had a bit of snow where we are near London, sales have been consistently very high all season so far and we had alot of customers come in over the weekend panic buying logs most of them new as everywhere else sold out, quite a few of them came some distance to get to us!

Ah right Ok, do you not dry all year round and store the dry stock undercover???
