Would be very wary with this as the old spud boxes could be tanalised and when burnt gives off cyanide gas.
Wood chip Cost

To go for power station burning, been offered £35 ton ,it just covers what they want to shred them

Did a lot with the bhsl style poultry muck boilers and generally if you get a decent burner running hot enough it will burn anything, the bhsl boilers were on a fluidised sand bed which allowed the burning of a denser material but these were savagely hot and the capacity for risk is massive. When commissioned they’re running on wood chip and can and will burn anything you want to feed them if the dozer blade in the self feed shed can move it effectively.

When I’ve seen it done you set to with the loader smash them down flat, then get the shredder in and feed it, those machines will eat 60-90t an hour very easy in dry wood. They’re not horrific for half a day rate.
No just drop them in the tub , 1000 he tub grinder

Shouldn’t cost that a ton unless there’s not enough there

Generally if it’s brash/ thin section timber they don’t bother as g50 is from the trunk portion mostly. Bark degrades chip quality which effects burn efficiency. I’d be inclined to say hire one of those self feed mobile chippers and lug it to it they can soon eat material but they’re not too cheap to hire in. Failing that a 360 and a fire.

might be a little far for a drive out im north yorkshire sorry
Im, looking at shredding broken pallets and crates in the New Year and removing all metals would this be of interest to the biofuel market please?
And, if so what would be a reasonable price to charge as I am obviously new to this and also what regulations would I need to abide by?
Any, help would be much appreciated please?
Thank you.

What sort of volume do you have?
It’s worth £30 pt + processed but plenty of rules and regs to comply with
Any, idea what the rules & regulations are please?
Or, where I can find them?
I’m, based near Shrewsbury and hoping to have large volumes.
I think the trouble you would have is that it would be classed as a waste wood even after processing. Boilers would have to be signed off to burn that waste. The waste boilers i know of have loads delivered for free albeit unprocessed but that doesnt bother them as it goes into the boilers with nails and all.

Wouldn’t chirk be a better outlet if you have a grade wood any chicken farmer around you what are you going to process it with
My, yard has exemptions for processing and I’m going to shred it in a single shaft shredder and bag it.
I, have lots of chicken farms around me but didn’t know they used this kind of stuff.
Also, as someone said Kronospan at Chirk is about 20 odd miles away but again I don’t know much about them tbh.
I, just wanted an outlet or outlets for it after I’ve shredded it that’s all.
I’ll, listen to all suggestions gladly.
Thank you.

The EA and local council will all want pleasing.
I’d take 200 ton a year gladly but sadly too far away.
If it’s clean pallets You could look at registering under the BSLto supply boilers
