This is Long Island.... $210 for 3 month split half cord!! Here is the ad:


HALF cord Firewood, wood ready to burn--COME AND GET IT, STACK UP FOR WINTER!

privately cut/split--mostly are oak but few are maple, birch, etc. I get many question regarding if Seasoned wood or not ?: expert says one year, some other says 6 months, professional says 3 months, etc. however I can tell you this, these wood(tree were mostly all) cut down around June 2010 and split Late August 2010. according to my time splitting wood, I have discarded smaller pieces into my nearby campfire stove and they burn well! I did this because Sanitation do NOT take garbage larger than 50 pounds,, go figure where do I get rid of these wood chips / small wood pieces? my last resort is burn them!

Length of wood: average length is 12"-16" but no longer than 18"

$175 for 1/2 cord

$325 for 1 cord

delivery is available for a FEE (not spelled 'fRee') up to 25 miles $45 (Fee Varies depending on location and tolls) immediate or next day delivery may be available!
NYC delivery is available for a fee up to 50 miles $65 (Fee Varies depending on location and tolls) immediate or next day delivery may be available! (Maximum sale is 1/2 cord per trip, cannot use trailer to NYC-Manhattan)
any other location, please call for delivery quote, I can make arrangement to deliver as far you like as long I'm decently paid for my time, tolls and gas.

this stack is TIGHTLY measured 6 feet high(please see rake on right side or height of fence for clarity) and 8 feet wide (measured 48 square feet)-- 1 row! estimate: little more than a FAIR 1/2 cord! the length of each wood is average 15" long

a cord measures UN-TIGHT(loose)/QUICKLY STACKED 4 feet high, 8 feet wide and 4 feet deep (or in most cases: 2 rows, some argrumental case declared as 3 rows if wood is exactly 16" length or less) 96 square feet(single row measurement) In cubic feet is 128 cu.ft.

Another reason why people are leaving LI. Believe it or not there is quality life else where.

That doesn't seem like a bad deal, even if it is mostly softwood. I wouldn't want to process and deliver a cord of anything for $60.

It doesn't seem like a bad deal until one realizes that in MI almost everyone thinks a rick is a cord of wood. It is not!
