16 cord delivery!

Wow - is it me or is that a better sound then listing to waves crashing at night when trying to fall asleep

looks amazing...I need a delivery like that. let me guess though: seasoned and hand split!!

Now the garden center needs to stack it, cover it and season it for two yrs.

Never bought firewood from a garden center. They don't have it at any of the ones near us. What is pricing on it typically?

I’m curious of cost also. That’s a lot of man hours in that load I f they processed by hand

Fantastic! I drive an 18 wheeler and am sitting in my truck right now in El Paso, looking across the river at Juarez.
But I have never seen a big truck like that with a ram to push out 16 cords of firewood.

The solid knock that the wood made knocking together makes it sound like the wood is solid with no rot.
What kind of wood is it?

Cool video. No ram pushing though. A live floor, or more precisely a conveyor floor on this truck. You can see it once the truck is fully emptied.

Belt trailer. I use them for feed products that do not flow well out of a hopper.

Definitely a belt trailer, you can see it under the trailer but that’s irrelevant to me that’s a big ol’ load of btu’s. Probably loaded up a by a big firewood processor. I would be curious to know if it is seasoned & what they are charging for it. I told someone I wanted $200 a cord for a mix of red elm, American elm, ( all was dead standing dead), Mulberry, Honey Locust & old hedge post that was cut split last fall. You would of thought I asked for their first born child.

if youre ever in nj stop by...I'll glady take your wood and I'll even throw in a frosty or two as a thank you for making the trek!!

There is a landscape supply / garden center by me that charges $90 for a small pickup full. No clue how much wood there is but I'd guess between a 1/4 and 1/3 of a cord. I only bought it once. I'm stockpiling free wood now.

our local garden center is about 130/cord for pine and 250/cord for mixed hardwoods. They just leave it all in a pile, don't bother stacking it.

Looks to be about a rick or half face

Expensive at the one near me but its kiln dried. I think it was 275 for 1/2 cord, too pricey for me, NIEL's are a better deal by the pallet.

Pretty neat. Where was the driver from? What was the place selling the wood for, if their cost was $240/cord?
