The Wood Will Be Delivered Next Week

Ive been thinking of getting a load once Im caught up, its about $500 and they say 5-6 cords. Probably a healthy 5 cords so you end up paying just a tad under $100 a cord. Lately though Ive been seeing a lot of guys selling green cords for $135-150 a cord delivered. One guy says all oak and some ash, I ordered 2 cords of ash so Ill see if he comes through. For that price I might as well buy it split.

Right now the wood in the yard is cut, stacked and dry for next year and a good portion of 2014. Like in 2010, this load should be 8 cords until 2016. Same price as 2010 too, $800. What is everyone else paying for a truckload of logs? I am in Southern NH.

I posted this picture before, I paid $700 for 10 cords. Have most of it C/S/S maybe 3 cords left to do. It is all red and white oak.

Dang; I'd give my eye teeth for a load like that! It'd give me something to do after work other than train my Labs and drink beer! I guess I need to put more "feelers" out! I'm hugely jealous

In this area of NY they are charging 250 a cord and IT AINT EVEN THAT GOOD. So i resorted to getting my own wood. Went out and got me a truck about 6 weeks ago and in that time i have close to 5 cords, most of which will be ready for this coming winter. A few more cords and I will break even with the truck price. (she is an old one but a darn hard worker)

Wow, and they even stacked/piled it on skids for you! Didn't see that in my prior post. You wouldn't happen to be related to them would you?? Wow.

I'm also in southern nh and would like to get contact info for this supplier if possible Thank you.

If you PM member Remkel, he can give you info on a supplier - I'm almost certain he paid $1000 for a 9 cord load - I believe the supplier was Damon's Lumber. Cheers!

Nope, no relation, I live in an area where there are a lot of loggers. $70 a cord is pretty much the "going" price, although oak may go for up to $90. I only live about 4 miles from the logger so he cuts me some what of a break.

I have a load coming today (hopefully), for 5-6 cord. It was supposed to be here Thursday. But he had problems at the Mill and wasn't gonna be to my house until 9 p.m... Having kids, thats not acceptable.

Its about as weatherguy stated above. 5-6 cord for $500. But it will consist of 90% Dead Ash, all straight and between 14"-18" in diameter. It can be had cheaper.. If you want twisted, mangled, and softer woods (Silver Maple, Pine, Cottonwood). It gets close to $50-$75 cord.

If I get over to his house anytime soon.. I will take some pics of his Firewood processor. Its the "Cats Meow"! !!

Last load was 20 cord @ $75/cord.
All oak, and it took me a while to get it all done.
