You can keep the elm lol. Not a bad deal for the ash though.
 
I wish you weren't 800 miles away, I would come on over with my truck.

Elm seasoned burns hot and beautiful,however it needs three years seasoning.

Maybe we have a different elm here. The stuff we have is just ok firewood but is an absolute nightmare to split.

I get lots of Elm off my tree lines (American Elm) one of the worst woods to split
That's probably the reason I bought a Hydo Splitter makes short work of it
and It don't burn to bad (Hot)
If I were closer I'd come and get it !!:cool:
 
I just find it doesn't burn near as hot as oak hickory locust or hedge. It leaves tons of ash ash when good and dry. And even with hyrdaulics is a pain to split. Just not worth my effort. One of the few woods I will not process anymore
 
oak hickory locust or hedge
I get lots of Hickory Oak and Sugar Maple but my fence lines have to be cleaned so they do not fall
in the Hay or crops . Waste not want not good for Fall and Spring besides my Furnace will burn just about anything
But I do not use soft woods burn to fast .
 
I'm good with the Elm. Ones I deal with usually standing dead for several years with the bark off and then split for a year and it good to go. Burns just as good as Oak from my experience. Not much left of it around here though, the Elm Bark Beetle got to them about 12 years ago or so. May be a few live ones around still here and there but rare now days.
