Normally do hardwood within 25 miles for £60 per ton
Where abouts are you.Hi have to buy some timber to make firewood and was wondering what type is best and what price I should pay for it? Seems you can arrange an artic load, 24-25 ton, price per ton ? Is this correct.
I hope to branch into selling firewood but initially this wud only be for own use
Thanks

I've seen her, sometimes when I see all the taraffic at the bottom of the lane u think there's been a smash until I see the mb trac making its wayYes my farm is just outside Bolton so quite often holding the traffic up in the area with my forward control MB Trac.
a lot less when they are driedSo you pay £60/ton for core wood delivered to farm. Then process it into logs , how much can you sell that ton for? Also what does a cubic metre of logs weight?
One ton of cord produces around 1.6 cubic metres of firewood.So you pay £60/ton for core wood delivered to farm. Then process it into logs , how much can you sell that ton for? Also what does a cubic metre of logs weight?
One ton of cord produces around 1.6 cubic metres of firewood.
E.g. a builders 'ton' bag is 0.65 cubic metres, thus £65/bag
A cubic metre of seasoned wood should retail around £100, so £60 of produces £160 of retailed seasoned logs.
After processing, storage and delivery there is very little if anything in it. The price of seasoned wood to the retail customer has barely changed in ten years.
