Hi guys had a log burner fitted recently. Just wondering if anyone can recommend any good hardwood log suppliers localish to Burnley with reasonable pricing.Getting a pallet size bag is out of the question due to storage space. I used Birch and Ash over the weekend. Any other hardwood with a good heat output and longish burntime.
Cheers.

Greta Thunberg’s gonna get ya.

I've had a log burner for 7 years. Brilliant item. Never paid a cent for wood though.... I burn any old crap that's lying around the island... Never had a prob.. So many pallets lying around, and small pine woodland nearby.

You see a lot of nonsense written about logburners...much of it aimed at unnecessarily parting you from your brass.

A lot use this place at Hapton

Started off using CB Coal at Waterfoot, they'll deliver for you and also you can choose just what type of logs you prefer, along with how much you can easily store. They also do everything you'll ever need for your logburner.

We got bought from family some bags of logs from Home Bargins, they are without doubt the best logs I've ever had, they are so dry and give out so much heat and they take with the slightest flame/heat, you can get a pallet delivered from them online, which contains 56 bags for about £220 but I know you said you had an issue with storage. Think a bag is about £4 indivdually. We only have the log burner on occasionally so a pallet tends to see us out the winter months

Play about with it as well to get as much heat/burn time from your logs. Use the air vents to control the draw of the fire. Always give it a good clean out after each burn to keep it burning well, build up of ash will affect the burn.
I bought myself some cheap paintbrushes to get in and get all the ash out and a cheap hand held vac with easy to clean filters, I find it actually quite soothing cleaning it all out, I don't mind doing it at all

Another one for Home Bargains. I have had logs form a number of different stores and theirs are by far the best. £4 a bag, the only issue generally is that when they have stock they sell out quickly.

I use C and B in Waterfoot or Milligan’s on Plumbe Street.

20 of these around the pitch and the spurs game would never of been called off

We wouldn't have been able to see Rowls' clear blue sky for the smoke, though.

Sunshine over Burnley ? In November ?
You're having a laugh...More like snow you mean.

No, I have it on good authority from our French news desk and his buddies in Burnley that the sun was blazing down later that afternoon and the match was, in fact, called off to prevent players and fans suffering from heatstroke.
Or something.

I've used Pendle Log Company based in Foulridge loads of times. Good quality stuff and good to deal with too

Buy a chainsaw I use a stihl & drive to a forest/wood & just have a do.

Perhaps you could pick me up a Xmas tree whilst your there? About a six footer.

There's an abundance of semi seasoned wood in most woodland (funnily enough). It's better for the environment that (poor) people are now less likely to have a fire place, but it's also cruel that winter fuel is literally lying on the floor when they can't afford gas.

Reported.

You will be charged with theft of wood, owning an illegal chainsaw without a license and crimes against global warming.

True it’s down to life choices though you’ve got the iPhone 13 or Samsung fold vs husqvarna or stihl the handset will win all day long.

I have about 35 telegraph poles, I have cut some into 3 foot lengths.
Log burner heaven if someone wants any.

Crikey, careful with that of its soaked in creosote. You’ll have your chimney/flue on fire.

They are very very old and weathered.

I wouldn’t burn that outside my house never mind inside it.

Pretty much the same, though I do chuck the stuff in a shed for a week or two to dry out a bit.

If you can get ahead of the game, wood that has been seasoned for a year will burn much better.

Only joking, I’m sure you know what your doing but anyone in the Burnley area who’s electricity is off, you now know why. Lowbankclaret has all the poles.

I don’t have a log burner.
My step dad built a log cabin about 20 years ago, he died 9 years ago. I just knocked it down and need rid of the wood.

You’re advising people to go into woodland with a chainsaw and steal somebody else’s wood. I didn’t think anyone would be daft enough to admit that on here so I apologise for calling you a bullshitter.

If you take without permission anything that belongs to somebody else it is theft if you can quote where I’ve said I take wood without permission fair enough.

For the avoidance of further doubt, nobody was taking you all that seriously but it's fun to play along.

And though you didn't say it directly, that is what you were implying and we all know that.

Jesus, UTC goes mad again.
There are hundreds of fallen trees around Burnley.
No one needs to cut good live trees down.

Oh dear Jakub.

What punishment do you think the British public would vote for?

Given his lack of remorse, contribution to pollution, global climate warming and CO2 emissions only a custodial sentence is appropriate.

I volunteer to look after his log burner when he is in the pokey.

Nobody’s really bothered about helping yourself the same applies to lots of things which are left around you are actually doing people favours by saving them the trouble of skipping stuff, you should always ask & never assume & when you ask they look at you as if you are mad for wanting the sh1t they want shut of.

Wow.

That escalated.

Never argue with a man with a chainsaw.

Can anyone recommend any decent hiking boots that may also be useful for cutting down trees?

No but you can borrow my Stihl chain saw

Sooner or later there's going to be a big clampdown on burning wood in Smokeless Zones. I think Cliviger and Worsthorne are the only districts in the borough were it's legal.

You can have a log burner in urban areas as log as it has a particular efficiency rating.

That's what the stove salesmen will tell you - there's a lot more to it than that. It's about pollution.
