to Members
Fuel supply has an important and integrated role to play in woodland management.
It is an outlet for low grade material which must be removed from woodland
so that the remaining quality stems can develop to their full potential.
We offer the following services to clients - some of which are chargeable
- however there is substantial discount available for South West Wood
Fuels members or for people interested in joining.

Wood Fuel audits, planning a heating system and worried about your sustainable wood fuel supply? or would you like to get started as a supplier and need help planning sustainable cutting yields and rotations? We can help.
Prior to arranging a contract
we always recommend we undertake an advisory visit to meet, look at
the woodland or planting project and discuss practical opportunities and
owners objective. 30% discounts available for members.
Using your own Resources
If the wood is managed sustainably and if fuel is processed effectively this will reduce running costs and improve the financial viability of the project. You may need to apply for felling permission from the Forestry Commission see www.forestry.gov.uk/forestry/infd-6dfkxf for more information or call them on 01223 314546.
In some cases a woodland grant scheme may be available, click on www.forestry.gov.uk/forestry/infd-6dccen or call on the same number.
