Got some logs and tree trunks from trees in garden that i have chopped down - no idea what type of trees they are - one was a huge christmas tree shape

2 logs at about 14 feet long
The rest of logs are about 8 & 6 feet long

Interest from two seperate people who want to buy all of it

From the pictures and description - how much would you charge ?

ask them both to make you an offer
then take the best

I would be grateful if someone took them away for nothing.

Bazile you need to take into account that they will need to be seasoned for a couple of years before they can be burnt. Stumps can be turned into something arty and fetch good money.

Thanks, Tony. Glad someone mentioned aging the wood.
I once dated a city gal who nicked some fresh logs for her apartment gas-powered fireplace. Not a clue.

That's like a friend of mine used to make furniture for sale , advertised as "tree wood construction" to differentiate from particle board.

[AZardoz]

That's honest. Sad that the distinction has to be made.
At one time all furniture was made of wood, not junk.

My daughter has put them on a web site somewhere

Yes I do realise that they would need to be dried out before being used for fuel ,for example


However ,the question is being asked as
to how much i want for them

So , how much would you ask ?

Are these the original captains logs?

I'll be boldly going now. :-)

Don't emoticons work on here then ?

[TonyV]

Last tonne sack of seasoned hard wood was around £50. Google logs for sale in your area to get an idea of prices and sell yours for 1/2 to 2/3 of that price.

emoticons do not work.

You can get more money if you chop the logs up into bags of kindling.

You can then get £3-£5 a bag.

Good luck trying to start a fire with fresh wood sticks!
Normally you would have to pay to get them taken away. I would just put them up for auction and take anything over 0,99p as a winner.

Baz, Looks to me like you have some conifer wood (softwood) among the hardwoods. I wouldn't recommend anyone to burn conifer logs, due to the high resin content.
The hardwood logs look good though, once dried n' seasoned.

I would second not burning unseasoned wood. Last time I had chimney swept for our log burner, sweep couldn't done a good job, had chimney fire from soot the next day, but Jen enjoyed being woken up by fireman in full uniform.
