How does that work out price wise on your end? Right now, the best I can get is $10/ton for pulpwood and decent saw logs (oak, walnut, etc) aren't much better, around 0.15/bd.ft. Almost doesn't pay the cold beverage tab.
I told them I didn't want anything for them . The rubbish dump were going to charge me $50 a tonne/ton to dump them . So nearly 60 tonnes so far , only costing me transport has saved me a bunch .
It's all political fuzzy logic anyway , if you take into account the fuel used to fall,skid,and load the trees , then the vast amounts of fuel poured into a huge grinder to chip them and then the fuel burned to truck it to the mill which then burns it and sends the Carbon straight up the chimney into the atmosphere . It makes our pollies feel like they have justified their existence tho . I hate to tell them that the Earth has been warming since the last ice age 10,000 years ago and that Carbon is the building block of the universe .

What a mission , 11 , 70 cubic metre/yard bins of timber and trash from a one acre block of land . Snakes , Rats , Ticks and Spiders where a daily encounter . My Fox Terrier took care of the rats and the excavator bucket took care of the Snakes , Ive still got a lump on my neck from a Tick and I wont mention where a Spider bit me but I had to drop the strides to eradicate it .

Wow! Thoes are big ones. Is that Queensland or New South Wales?
It is in Northern New South Wales , but only 100 kilometres from the Queensland border at Tweed Heads .
This is Jamie and Becky the new owners of the land and my Foxy "Chewy" looking on . I asked them to stand in front of one of the stumps for a photo while I held it with the excavator . (She will kill me if she finds out I posted this photo while she was in her house cleaning cloths .) The job took 8 days because I had to wait on the bins to be emptied and also the fact that the stumps had to be dug out and disposed of before I could form the new carriage way .
I made good money from the job and now I can't get away as all the neighbours have me doing jobs for them while the machines are there .
