Looks ideal for seasoning mate -
Hi mate, I've not received any details yet. Also, your inbox is full [emoji106]

I'm going to be building some kind of open hay barn style thing to season my logs under so I was hoping you could all post pictures of your methods for inspiration!

I know this is firewood but does anyone deal much in coal? I use logs and coal at home as its our only source of heating, and the coal seems to give the heat a bit of a boost I prefer the house coal to the home fire ovals which is a bonus as its cheaper. Wondering if someone could recommend a south west wholesale coal dealer or the cheapest place to go? Thank you

I'll always want the timber for myself it all goes tits up! Yes I think there could be a market for it round here so why not give it a go
-
Thanks mate that's exactly what I'm hoping to do. Kleen kut aren't far away so I think I'll give them a go. Cheers mate
-
That would be great, cheers mate
-
That's pretty much it mate. Just thought I would run it as a business to avoid upsetting the tax man, and to have my name to something. It's just finding the wood!
-
I've not actually sold or delivered any yet. I like my own company so a day spent chopping and splitting timber is my ideal day. Just me and the dog

I am EX14 so quite a way lol thank you for that, the details would be nice. I have access to a fork lift truck if that will be enough? The three acres is just a bit of clearing, I'm hoping enough to stock up and dry for a year before I actually have a go at this without it really costing a lot.

I already have a full time job, the logs is something I enjoy doing already as I rely on logs for heating myself. I'm not expecting to earn a living out of it, just to sort bump up my wage. Where would I go to import logs? Surely if it was as simple as that, more people would be doing it?

Hi all, long story short I have basically been given approx 3 acres of woodland to "help myself to", I also have space for storage (or rather to build a shelter for storing/drying logs) for free, mixed with a keen interest, I would like to enter into the firewood business. Once this three acres has run out, where would I source a constant supply of cordwood? As for kindling, is it better to buy bulk bags of processed kindling, or source the timber and process it all myself? Any help/tips/info would be greatly appreciated.
-
Good points there
-
Blimey an extra 75k a year would be nice lol thank you very much for that. Don't really want the extra cost of insurance to be honest. Weight wise I have full HGV so not an issue. I will do some research on felling licences and rhi grants [emoji106]
-
Would it not be easier for suppliers and consumers if logs were sold by the amount of logs? I.E one load is 140 logs, half a load 70 logs ect. Logs range between 8 and 10 inch in length for example?
-
I'd like to do it all legit and not risk a visit from the tax man. What would I need to insure against? I just want to make sure no ones going to come and tell me I can't sell logs or something silly. So if I tick all the boxes I can't go wrong. In theory.
-
Hello loggers! Is there any legalities I need to be aware of if I'm selling firewood? Any regulations to follow? Certification ect Any help would be greatly appreciated!
-
Thank you for the replies. I will have a look at getting in touch with some hauliers. There's a local farm who has a massive amount, looks like for biomass I think though. Might see where he got his

Hi all, first post here. Would anyone be able to shed any light on the stacks of logs by forests, and if it's possible to purchase a load? Long story short we rely on logs for heating at home. I can chop them up and split them no problem, just thinking it may be cheaper to buy them un-chopped. Also, I've been asked a few times where I get my logs from, so I think there may be a few quid to be made. Devon, near Honiton
