Yea,I just noticed that today. Was in a hurry last night and just saw "diesel".
Sorry Wannadiesel but credit goes to blackdiesel!

 

i have a double bottom semi trailer bring in 21 cord everyfall (1600 dollars). It comes in 8' seasoned logs averaging 10" in diameter.
We have an outside woodburner that will take a 4' piece but 4' pieces get pretty heavy so what we do is cut the 8' logs into 3 pieces and split the few logs that get to the 12"diameters.

 

How much you getting for wood down there. Paying 140-160 for a cord of spruce here...

 

heating my 2,500 sf house completely with wood in Tulsa.
converted middle of last winter. hoping to get through entire winter with 4 cords usage.

winter started pretty mild here, but our first winter storm sure chilled things down.

 

dang, 160 bucks for a cord of soft wood?! how much would a cord of seasoned red oak go for up there???

i charge 135 for a cord of hardwood....

 

You could cut it in bigger pieces it you burn it in a van!!

 

It would probably be very expensive because of the distance to an oak tree. You burn what's around.

 

I don't wanna hijack this thread, but how do you guys find customers for your firewood? I see that some have a contract with a business or etc. I will have a long Christmas vaction this year, and I need something to do. I guess that I have never checked the classifieds. Do people, who are looking for firewood, ever put wanted ads in there?

 

humm... ive never seen any want ads here. Just all i can tell ya is to put up some flyers at like wall mart or for sale ads in the newspaper.

i have racks on my truck that has "Blevins Firewood Sales" with my phone number on it. So this doubles as a billboard and racks that hold the wood.

I dont cut much for individuals, theres not as much money in it

 

Also check out this link, very interesting on how prices vary on location.

If I had red oak I sure as heck wouldn't be burning it

 

Here it is Dec. 3rd and I'm burning "trash wood" to heat the house! I've got pine from some trees that had nematods in them, I've got maple, elm and sycamore that I cleaned out of the creek to clear the water gaps this summer. When it gets cold I'll burn osage orange (hedge). Only takes probably 4 cords all winter and my furnace never comes on. I have an insert custom built for the fireplace that extends 15" inside on the hearth, is double lined with an adjustable blower.

Burning pine today. It's 12 deg. out right now and it's 76 in here!

To burn ten cords in Oklahoma you'd have to be heating the state capital building and keeping it 80 degrees!!!

I've seen guys around here stack wood out by the street against a tree, about 3 1/2 feet up and out about 3' and sell it for 35.00. It'll be gone in a day or so if the weather is cooling off. Stop by some of the 7-11 stores. They may be interested in purchasing some, Or the Caseys Store. Put a cheap add on your local cable TV.

I don't use the spliter much. If I can pick it up, it goes in.

Oak is about $150 - $175 a cord around here delivered.
