Logs, Woodchips, & Timber Products
We recycle all our arisings, either on site or at our processing site in Clyst St Mary. We are happy to convert your arisings into suitable sizes for firewood for you and our narrow access tracked chippers can get into almost any site, enabling us to chip all smaller material on site for your later use. Alternatively all the arisings can be removed off site.
Logs
We are once again selling seasoned wood suitable for burning, stocks are limited and will be supplied on a first come, first served basis only.
We recycle or re-purpose all of the timber arising from our tree surgery operations. In many cases timber can be left on site, either for use by the client or as a habitat area. Smaller materials are normally chipped or, where appropriate, can be stacked on site to form brushwood habitat piles. Where timber is removed off site, the wood is recycled in one of three ways:
Any timber unsuitable for burning, such as Horse Chestnut, Willow, Poplar, Pine and most other conifers, as well as timber that for any reason is unsuitable for processing into firewood, will be taken to a specialist processing site where it is converted into wood pellets for biomass boilers.
Clean, easily splitable rings of good burning wood such as Ash, Beech and Oak are stacked under cover at our yard and can be collected in person or can be delivered. This timber may not be fully seasoned and is most suitable for people who can process the firewood in their own time and have sufficient storage space. If this is convenient for you, then this will be one of the most cost effective methods of filling your log store.
We currently have a limited supply of good quality seasoned hardwood logs suitable for burning, mixed with a small quantity of softwoods suitable for kindling. Our stock of logs is not kept onsite so we do need some notice to ensure we have stock in the yard for collection or delivery. We regularly have a stock of fresh, unseasoned hardwood in our yard, this is not cut into logs but can be collected to be split and seasoned at home.
All of our timber for firewood is locally sourced. We do not buy in imported timber for conversion into firewood. We sell all timber by the approximate cubic metre, please contact us for our up to date prices. Your order will comprise good quality timber, mainly hardwood but may include some softwoods such as Cedar, which can be useful for kindling. As all the timber comes from our tree surgery operations the species mix tends to be wide and varied.

Woodchip
We keep a large stock of woodchip in our yard. This ranges from fresh chip to well-mulched stock. The benefits of woodchip are great – suppressing weeds, tidying the appearance of garden beds and borders, maintaining soil moisture levels (and thus reducing the need for watering), and slowly releasing nutrients into the ground. It is particularly valuable for old or veteran trees where a circle of woodchip extending out to the canopy line can significantly slow a tree’s gradual decline.
We can deliver any volume of woodchip, from a small pick-up load to an articulated lorry full (discounts are available for large orders), or you can come to our yard in Woodbury and pick up as much as you need yourself. If you contact us in advance, we can always arrange a time when one of our staff are available to help load a trailer or small truck using our tractor. Telephone us on 01395 232854 for further details.
