I'm jealous. Ash burns so nicely and it's getting hard to come by in my area. I just replied to a CL ad offering some nice dead ash trees, but it turned out to be one of those laugh-of-the-day situations with a homeowner looking for free removal in a problematic situation.
 
Doesn't get much better; Easy loading, drive the load up to the stack, buck, split, stack. No way I can drive the big trailer anywhere near most of my stacks.
How will you handle them from here? Buck 'em off the end of the trailer as you slide them out, or what?
 
what kind of tires do you have on the trailer?

Those are 265 75 15? passenger tires. Probably not even the same size on each side. I had a problem with the rims, trying to find a spare. They are mid 1960's GM rims. Not easy to find now. I found a nice red corvette rim that fit but the owner didn't want to sell it.

Buck them right on the trailer and park the splitter right next to it and work from the trailer into another trailer to bring to another stacking location. If I need the trailer I will have to off load it.
