All,
I have a residential property with around 6 acres of woodland that has generally has been untouched for over 40+ years.
I have a felling licence in place for five years and I am looking for possibly a site measurement service, company or person to work out exactly the amount of timber on site.
I have also had 2 companies around to view and look at the wood standing. They have suggested to me that and taking in to consideration their costs, for felling, removal, site clearance are offering me between £8- £12 per ton. Would anyone on this site consider this fair and reasonable.
As it seems to me that the price of hardwood especially seems much higher from my initial research the price seems low. I do appreciate our site has some complications for the extraction of of the wood that is difficult. The location is in North West Cumbria.
Regards

Thanks fir the information. Mixed hardwood and softwood. Ash, beach, lime and a few good oaks. Access is only difficult for larger machines. Road storage is on my land and easy to collect.
