Maybe it's cheaper somewhere else, but man, I'm glad I live in Michigan (sometimes).
C/S/D Oak is $165-180 around here.
It's not (this is for DixieView attachment 117437 ), um, dry, but I take care of that.


LMAO, ya figured it out :)

My main firewood guy charges $190 for a cord of "pretty" splits. He charges $100 for a load of uglies (I'll load unglies when ever needed for that price !!). Still waiting on him to get me the pine he's been promising me.

I'm just amazed at the price difference.
 
I'm sure someone is getting $400 per cord, but that's definitely not the regular local pricing here, Pauly. Everyone I know around here is paying somewhere aorund $200/cord, and those are full cords. I'm just up the road from you, near Limerick.
Yep. Call any firewood dealer in chester county, 275.00 per cord delivered. Premium for All Oak. 400.00. I just checked two to be sure.

Wow... it's not a surprise, as I always said I could never process wood for as little as $200/cord myself, but it's amazing there's such a discrepancy in pricing for just a 30 mile difference in location. That, and we don't have to smell the stink of your mushroom farms. :p ;lol
 
Could it be transport laws and regulations ? I just learned the Tahoe firewood market is very expensive for hardwoods, $400 plus per cord, I'm 100 miles away. Hardwoods just don't grow in the mountains at higher elevation. I dont even know what the transport laws are here. Still wouldn't be worth the extra time.

Oh but it's all natural. No farms real close though. These guys out here try and capitalize on the uninformed younger
people. Not all but the majority. My neighbor did get two cords. 500.00 because he got 2. After being stacked it was not
what I would call full cords. If I sold my firewood it would be 1000.00 a cord for as hard as I work to get it.
