Access Recycling have recently developed a completely unique mobile sleeper saw milling plant to produce quality firewood.
After winning several large contracts with Australian Rail Track Corporation (ARTC) for the disposal of timber sleepers we began the process of developing a mobile sawmill to cut the sleepers for firewood.
While many of the sleepers will be recycled for use in gardens, furniture and other landscape purposes, a large proportion remains unsuitable. With more than one million timber sleepers secured, bulk firewood processing became a priority. The multi saw docking system and feed deck was designed and built by sawmilling specialists Acora Reneco of Eden. It consists of 8 skip tooth blades that simultaneously drop through a cutting chamber, docking each sleeper into nine pieces, each 300mm in length.
A rigorous program of sampling and testing was undertaken to ensure that the firewood produced is suitable for domestic use. Timber samples were tested in a NATA approved laboratory for the presence of any residual hydrocarbons, pesticides and herbicides.
The sleepers have proven to be very clean and safe. The timber is extremely clean and well seasoned. The result is that we now have large volumes of low cost redgum and ironbark firewood of uniform size available for sale.
Access Recycling have fire wood available at various depots in Albury and Seymour in Victoria and in Barmedman and Griffith in NSW.
