Loving my wood burner. Where to get wood in bulk from?

[vetran]

Befriend a tree surgeon/amateur.
Find someone with an orchard/wood.
Help cleaning canals & churchyards - you will have to take home, its an excuse to buy an old landrover!
Try Freely wheely.
Pop round my house - I have a ton of eucalyptus logs going. You would be third in line.

You are obviously not my neighbour who has an 20m eucalyptus within 5m of my house and does nothing to maintain it

Try your local paper or free sheet.

You can buy various manufactured blocks (wood pulp?) delivered by the pallet load. They have a much lower moisture content than even well seasoned logs, so burn better/more efficiently and leave less residue in the chimney/flue.

nope I'm the one with a soon to be dead eucalyptus, with bits all over his garden that has had a hair cut Kings Charles / Madame Guillotine would be impressed with.

[woohoo]

We found a local farmer that does it, its £70 for a massive bag, you need a log store to keep it dry. So might be worth asking about.

Just one tip, make sure you have a carbon monoxide detector within a few feet of the log fire. We have a nest in the hall and our main room is quite big. We suffered headaches (dog was vomiting) for a couple of days until the detector in the hall picked up the carbon monoxide leak.

Lovely wood, best in an open fire - the oils can be a bit of a pain in a wood burner.

I'll be round later. I'm sure I'll recognise the house - have you still got the England flags up from the Euros (1996)?

There are national companies who supply in dumpy (builders) bags, about a cubic meter per bag. Going rate 80-100 quid.

Similarly local suppliers which to be fair aren't always that easy to find, but if you search on Google Maps you can find them.

Finding your local arborist/tree-surgeon firm can be a good option. You used to be able to buy fresh-cut logs from them for very little and season them yourself for a year but I think that's illegal now (not 100% certain who can sell 'green' logs now).

I've bought logs by the lorry load before but now we are self-supplied from our own trees that I keep chopping down.

No our butler got us new ones for the jubilee with bunting , look for the burning EU flag out front.

How big a chainsaw do I need to bring to get the tree down?
