fieldsportsman 107 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 who buys logs and what price do you pay Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Waz 4,249 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Not bought any for a while as ive had a fair bit owed and worked for etc. & bought some low quality (stacked and uncovered for a bit to long 18 euros a m3) BUT..... Around my way, the normal price for a 1m3 is between E 45 upto E 55. This will be chesnut or oak or mixture maybe bit of other stuff mixed in. 2 year old seasoned split etc and the upper price it would be cut to the length you want, ie: 33cm or 50cm Id use between 12 & 15 m3.

patterdalejoel 669 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 £58 for a dumpy bag full of 2 year seasoned logs. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Paid 935 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 Had a log burner 2 years now and not had to buy any yet, but been lookin local, and its £50 or £75 a load, a load seems to be a large dumpy bag. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Nik_B 3,790 Posted January 24, 2013 Report Share Posted January 24, 2013 If you buy off the internet you can pay anywhere from 90-140 quid for seasoned hardwood. Defo not cost effective I imagine if you live in rural areas you can get them for a fraction of the price. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
