Unfortunately, I do not have an area that I can have a large woodpile. Consequently, I have a bunch of smaller piles spread around the perimeter of my property. This has posed a challenge for covering them as many are single row deep and a tarp is way too big. The wife came up with an interesting solution. I picked up a bunch of Clear Shower curtains from the Dollar Store. then are almost 6ft X 6ft. I can cover a pallet by opening it fully or I can cover a single row by having it as 2ft by 6 ft. At a little over a buck, I have nothing to lose if they get ripped etc.
 
just a dollar lost each each stack 😀. Wonder how long they will last with sun beating on them in the summer. Even then its only another dollar.
 
Well we'll see how long they last. I may end up getting tarps or some other sort of cover, but it is worth a shot for the price
 
So far they are holding up. Some of the heavy duty tarps I have on bigger piles are starting to show signs of wear. So for a $1.25 these seem like a good solution. The only setback is you can only really cover small piles. The pick on the right is using two.
