Hey guys, do you think a load like this could really split and stack out to 7 cords ?

The way I see it , your calculations may be a little off. 700 sq ft /128 (sqft in a full cord)= 5.468 cord.Absolutely!! Probably more...Here's why...........Picture shows 6 logs facing you. 20' in length and lets say 5' high........That's 100 sq ft. Lets say there are a total of 6 rows just like that.. Notice the top is a little higher and then factor in smaller 20' logs. 600 sq ft plus the stuff on top and the smaller ones that are hiding(roughly another 100 sq ft) That would give you 700 sq ft. 700/32=21.875 face cords/3=7.29 cords of wood. If I lived there I would order 2 log loads ASAP...
May not be much timber business down in your area, but up here it is booming.Not everywhere, Kenny. I've been asking around different tree services for some time here, and none want to deliver log loads. There is no real timber business in PA / NJ, aside from small land clearing operations where they tend to just shred 99% of what they clear, so tree service companies are the primary source of wood for those not cutting their own.
Never pay more than what the pulp mill is paying. Just my opinion. If I buy from a logger I will always call the local mill and check price.
This is very true. However, if you live closer to the timber than the mill, most of the time you can score. Also, donot hesitate to stop by the site and ask about the laps that just get piled upWell the average person really doesn't rate like a mill with a contract to fulfill. There is no screwing around and wondering if they will take it or pay when you deliver as many loads as you can generate.
