Frequently asked questions

I've had a tree fall on my property - what should I do?

• First of all, make sure that you and your family are safe

• If the log is in good condition you'll be able to use it for furniture or outside in the garden

• For advice on what you can use the logs for call us on 0488 032 862 or email julia@rescuelogs.org

What can I do with the logs I have?

• Mill them on your block

  • Purple Hat Woodworking do an amazing job cutting logs into slabs, or pieces for furniture. Tell Nick and Isaac we've referred you!

• Use them in the garden

  • Rounds can be used as steps

  • Logs can be cut in half length ways to be used as garden edging

  • Smaller logs can be used around gardens or stacked when you crate a flat side to create raised veggie patches

  • Large stumps can be cut into with chainsaws (by an expert) to create seats or pot holders

  • Hollow logs are great for attracting animals that like to burrow and hide

• Donate them to a local artist or Rescue Logs

  • Email us on julia@rescuelogs.org and we'll come and take a look for you.
