View Full Version : Firewood???
Slingah 10-29-2008, 05:58 PM Like every year Im late getting firewood...Does anybody know where I can get a cord or 2 of dry seasoned hardwood on the South Shore?? I found a guy who has kiln dried for 340. a cord...a bit steep...plus I tried some last year and it still wasnt dry...
T.I.A.
Raven 10-29-2008, 06:10 PM you have to rotate your wood....Slingah - stack enough for the next fire when you get a good fire burning...
near by and dry it as you go...
don't know how your covering your pile outside but
a plastic tarp over it humidifies the wood and makes it wetter... better to have a plywood roofed water shed.
the guy up the road was charging $300 and i thought that was too high...with heating oil prices dropping to $269.00 per gallon around here...
if you have a truck, you can get a better deal if you load the cord yourself rather than have it delivered.
Slingah 10-29-2008, 06:17 PM thanks Raven...I do usually get it in my pick up...8' bed $80...one guy is outta biz...other is too far away now... looks like those deals are all over..I gotta go scouting..
I keep my wood dry...it just me being lazy and not getting it ahead of time...
Raven 10-29-2008, 06:22 PM i'm right there along with ya... i have none thus far...
too many friggan car repairs-> lately
$ 90 bucks to fix a rheostat in the wife's car... yesterday...
$220 to have a EGR valve installed in the van
and now the freakin water pump bearing just decided to crap out ,

BigBo 10-29-2008, 07:53 PM Matt. The house next door to me has a sign up advertising $280/cord, cut and split. I can get the phone number tomorrow. I think he's family of my neighbor and he's in Hanson.
