We did this when I was growing up. Dad ordered a tractor trailer load of wood. He’d cut it and I’d hand split it with a maul and wedge. Then keep the porch stocked with wood for the wood stove. A load would last us about 3 winters in central NC.
I dont know how much you paid but i would definitely say you got your moneys worth considering you didn’t have to fell, load, transport and unload then drive your truck back to where ever, which all of that has it added cost involved and wear and tear on the equipment
From a 20 ft dump truck I say you get about 4-4.25 cords once split.
I knew a fellow in Columbus, Ohio who bought truckloads each year.
To me, what you pay for split seasoned wood is cheap considering the amount of time and effort.
A typical New England tri-axle log truck holds about 8 cords of firewood. This can vary. A cord is 128 cubic feet of tightly stacked wood, bark and air, since it is not possible to stack wood so tight as to eliminate air. Diameter of the logs is irrelevant. Chunks below 5 inches in diameter probably do not need to be split.
I had a friend in high school that started a firewood business he actually got paid to take log truck loads for $100
Wow
A cord is a cord. A face cord is a face cord. They are just a volume of wood. It doesn't matter the size of any log. It's a Volume! In fact, you may actually get more with smaller diameter logs as the may stack better by filling in spaces.
Please don’t sell firewood then
Standard load from a logging truck in NY is 7 cords +/- ....for $700
..I get one every other year to help buffer that hunting and gathering ...do both
8 face 2 1/2 cord...
Great info!
Iam a new subscriber and really enjoy watching your videos. My guess would be 9.375. Iam a logger in central Wisconsin. We typically haul about 12.5-13 cord at a time. Keep up the good work.
Yes it is i need a.project and i have two stihl saws and a 25 ton splitter
A 20 foot load would likely add a couple of cords. Typical New England load would be 16 feet. So, you should have about 10 cords from your load.
should be approximately 8 cords of firewood no matter how you dice it. I cut and split same size truckload every year from the age of 12 to 20ish for my parents and it always figured out to 8 cords or a bit more....I was paid 10 bucks per cord to cut and then 10 per cord to split by hand-if I beat the deadline I was paid 100 for cutting and 100 for splitting as a bonus.Pretty big money to a youngster back in the 70"s.
Once you have it cut and stacked in cords, then figure out how much per cord you paid. I won't buy "Logs" that are smaller than 15". Now if it were cut in 24 or 32 inch lengths, then it can stack fairly tight on the delivery truck.
I agree that a firewood seller's cost should be based on a cut, split, stacked cord. After 2-3 deliveries, you should be able to work out a correlation between what the log truck says it is delivering and what that means to you in cut, split, stacked cords.
New here my class cuts log truck every year 22 face cord is what we get.
I reckon if you spent as much time cutting, splitting, stacking you would have more time to find a trucker that will bring you the kind of wood your looking for and the amount your seeking....just a thought.
You still need kindling to start your fires. The small logs are good for that purpose.
In in a different part of the country you should get 10 to 12 cords per truck load on and off all my life in Oregon worked in the woods when I was younger. I'M GETTING READY TO ORDER A FULL LOG TRUCK MAYBE TWO I'LL CUT IT UP MYSELF AND ONLY ORDER FROM SMALL LOCAL SMALL LOCAL PEOPLE. BEST FROM GREG IN OREGON.
I would say you got about 3 coords,but I hope you got more
Thanks Joey! Me too!
The guy I currently deal with on logs, I average 5.5 cords a load upto 22' logs. He is mostly a mechanicized operation. The limbs are not cut off real close so that hurts me a little on what I get. His log are smaller in diameter 8-16" usually. The guy I used to deal with I usually got 6 cords, 18' logs. His logs were usually larger. His son had a little processor that would do upto 16" wood. That is about the smallest i got from him. Sometimes I got logs 28." One time I got a load from a guy and some logs were 24' long. When he picked up his rear axle to come up the driveway, he could barely steer the truck. The truck was way over loaded. I got 7 cords from that load of good wood. I ran into some rotten stuff. I'll post some pics in the splitter wars group of this load sometime. I'm going to guess that you got 6.25 cords, I know this video is old. I see guys advertising on market place 8-11 cords and a tri axle and that is not possible. The trucks are usually 8' high and 8' wide, then what ever the length of the logs are. One thing I learned is, they all put some short logs on the truck, and they all will put a hollow log or two on the load.
If I could have gotten 5.5 to 6.5 I would have been satisfied but ended up only getting 3.14, and it cost 775 I can buy it already split for that kind of price, but I’m still on the search to try to find someone that can bring logs, I would be happy if I could get it a 100 a cord.
@@WilliamsonRidge That was a lot of money even if it was a good load. I had something similar happen. The last load I got, I only got 3 trailer loads for a total of 3.9 cords. I have about a wheel barrow load left over. I called the guy and I took his breath. He is supposed to bring me a good load next time, which I am waiting on. This load was full of small crooked stuff so that is why I came up a cord and half short.
@@WilliamsonRidge That's alot of work and a lot of back pain Mano. 😫. I have been looking at what they are charging in new jersey. It's 8 cords for a thousand bucks. I was talking to a logger In north jersey. That's what he said. I can't even find one in south jersey. I've been trying. I have 4 acres of oaks. I've been cutting since 2013. I wouldn't mind getting a trailer full of logs. It's easier that way. Little by little for me. I hope you wind up with want you want. Keep planting tree's. Black locusts are fast growing. Get a mussers tree 🌳 catalog. They have good tree's. Have fun.
Cool thanks for the info.
now thats a pretty impressive stack rounds
Turned out to be some nice firewood
A dozen years or so ago, 2 friends and I shared a log truck load . the logger assured us it was 15 cord. Having cut firewood most of my life, even hauling 13 ft logs in my trailer and 8 ft in my truck for 120 miles unloading at home into a pile of logs, then cutting it up. I had a good feel as to what was on the log truck. I estimated 10 cords. Two of us cut and stacked the cords we paid for, leaving the balance to the 3rd party, his suggestion , when all cut up, it came to about 11 cord. When the logger discovered I worked for the WA State Department of Agriculture, he became quite nervous, an later delivered 4 cord to the shorted party. My first clue of bogus information from the logger was that according to WA DOT, the weight of 15 cord would be illegal. Elsewise there was no way that load would measure out 15 cord. Take-home, watch what volume your getting and don't accept unscrupulous firewood sellers who assume rightfully that the general public has no clue as to how many cords is on a log truck.
I’m afraid that’s what they may have done in my case but I’m definitely going to contact them and let them know I feel they shorted me
Thank you so much Everyone for Subscribing, Sharing and Commenting And helping us get to 500 Subs! I will do the drawing and winning video on Sunday 12-22-19 as that is the first chance I’ll have to make the video due to the busy time of year for a mail man, so there’s still time to get in! Thanks again for all the support!
5.5 full cords
I'm guessing 6-7 cords and that's if it was loaded tightly
For what it's worth. I was a logger for 12 years and Im pretty certain your math is off. On a 53' trailer truck load is 10-11 cord. And that's stacking straight pines like Legos. Very little gaps.
On a 20' truck it might be 5-6 maybe and that's being kind.
I’m just basing it on the measurement of the truck and what others had told me but a cord is 128 cubic feet and a truck that is 20x 8x8 is 1280 cubic feet which is 10 cords I don’t see how my math could be any other way
@@WilliamsonRidge I think your measurements would be better if you used board feet instead of cubic ft. There are 1503 board ft in a cord. So if you get logs measure the board ft instead of cubic ft. That would be a lot more accurate considering cubic ft is a volume measurement not an actual measurement of what's in front of ya. You know what I mean?
I got ya
Great video. Time to break out the eastonmade. 6.3 cord is my guess
There are actually more BTU's in the smaller limbs, because of tighter grain.
7.5 cords
8. My new friend that was a lot of work. I'm Max. iJust got into firewood. Great workout n therapy. Thx for sharing n stay warm 👍🏽
I really enjoy it and just being out side! Good to meet you Max. Thanks so much!
@@WilliamsonRidge just got back in from a lil splitter. C ya on the next one. Have a good day 👍🏽
That’s a lot of woooooood
That's what she s...
😳 nevermind I'll hold that thought. 😏
Great video Paul , 7
Thanks brother I appreciate you
Thats a lot of firewood there my friend. That will definitely keep you warm next winter.
Hi why don’t you wear chaps 👍
It depends on the weather. I know it would be better to all the time but when it’s 90 degrees out it’s hard to make myself wear them, I try to be extra careful but I know it’s still taking a big risk.
I buy 8 cord truck loads of hardwood for 880.per load. After blocking the wood i have in the 7 cord range. My supplier offers large diameter or small firewood loads. You get more firewood out of the large firewood loads but much more time consuming splitting it all. I'd be happy with some 3 inch diameter wood. I like a mixture of sizes. Keep up the good work and buy your self a Husky. LOL Kent from PEI.
Lol
Where I come from in northern Ontario Canada , we get 18 singles from a log truck load . Mine you these are triaxle trucks and have 14 foot trip stakes . The cost of a load like this is roughly 900 dollars
Very interesting project. #1, how much did you pay for what you got? #2, is not a cord generally measured when cut and spit?
Split wood I am thinking would take up a larger volume?
I buy my wood like you do, by the truck load. Too old to wrangle it out in the wild anymore so there is that. Factor in the cost of propane or electricity vs wood for heat.
How much have you invested in equipment such as saws, chains, sharpeners and a splitter. For example I bought two new saws this last summer, a Stihl 261 and a Stihl 462. My splitter is a 20 ton horizontal from Harbor Freight that splits in both extend and retract of the ram I got several years ago. So in order $500.00 for the 261, $1,200.00 for the 462 and $800.00 for the splitter for a rough total of $2,500.00. Granted the saws and splitter will last for quite some time but initial investment cost is high but that is a one time expense unless something breaks.
The load I got this year was fur felled a year ago last November so it has to wait to season up after it is split. This load will be for next winter which will make it two years from the time it was felled. I paid $1,450.00 US for the truck load, thinking it was maybe too much but that is all I could find in my area last spring.
For me there is fun and exersise associated with all of this so my sanity might be in question. Next summer I need to build a suitable wood shed so more expense on top of what I already have in. Life is not a business deal to be weighed out by time, effort and expense but that is just me and not everyone else. Some might weigh this all out and determine cost effectiveness is in the negative and decide propane is the better deal money wise. These types of folks are frugal with their money and look for a cost factor only. Being retired I got nothing else to do with my time and have many many hours of enjoyment not only at work on the log pile but gaining information like you have presented in your video which all to me is fascinating.
One mans truck load is larger or smaller depending on the truck that delivers it. Mine came by a self loader this last spring for example and I was a bit disappointed compared to the last load a few years prior at $1,000.00 for the load which was standing dead, not the best with rot developing in some logs so there is that.
This winters wood is the last of that load. I did cut and split some of this new load just in case we have a real bear of a February/March like last year but I should be fine.. My cut and split pile is stacked neatly and not too loose or too tight and is 6 feet high x 20 feet long x 10 feet deep and should get me through the winter and spring just fine with plenty to spare. I am trying to rely less on propane this year so the wood stove is getting the lions share of heating duty. The fresh wood I cut and split this year was placed on the windward end of the cut and split pile where it sees maximum ventilation to speed the drying time.
The other bits of equipment I forgot to mention are my Polaris four wheeler I use to drag a trailer from the splitter to the cut and spit pile, a Ford 3000 diesel tractor with the latest edition being a John Deere 318D skid steer I bought in August of this year for $20,000.00, ouch! The skid steer was purchased for snow clearing my 1/8th mile driveway mainly but it sure comes in handy when put to work on the log pile.
Like I said before I like your approach to this question but without all the other factors like making pancakes without baking powder, baking soda and buttermilk instead using plain water will get you pancakes that won’t taste very good.
Carry on smartly. That is all
My dad heats with wood and only wood, I get all his firewood for him. I've never bought wood i pick it up anywhere i can, I'm very particular about what kind of would I get I live in Southern Ohio my preference is black locust, honey locust. Hickory, oak, cherry, i prefer hickory or black locust. I go in and get the leftovers of woods that have been logged, and cut on the weekends mainly or any chance i get i split by hand i have a cs 590 echo, cs370 echo, stihl029, 16in homelite, and a little Husqvarna. Me and my dad were talking to his Neighbors and they mentioned how they always see me working in the wood pile, i told them i really enjoy cutting/splitting wood. They looked at me with this puzzled look on their faces and said their must be something wrong with me, for some reason that made me feel good.

Here in Montana all I can get is pine and fur so no hardwoods.
A 2 ft load of wood with 8.5 to 9 ft stakes you will have pretty close to 7 cords,
I'm thinking closer to 8 cords, those big rounds will make some wood.
Standard load for Montana is 10-15 cords lol starting around a thousand bucks and up depending on what kind it is !
6.5 to 7 cords per 20' log truck
hi there maybe 4 if your lucky john
after 9 years i just managed to get 3 cord ahead. its a tough job
For sure!
Hey Brother I would say 6 face cord Thank you for sharing your videos...👍❤️🙏☮️✌️
Hey Paul good video I’ll be interested to see the final count. New sub also.
Thanks so much!
This is my first visit to your channel. Your episode title caught my attention. I need a log truck load of hickory in the worst way. My guess is 7.45 cords in your load.
One cord is 4 facecord a facecord being 4x8x16 or 18".....most log trucks have at least 3 full cord depending on how it's bucked and split...I buck mine at 20" my over all cord ratio is alot smaller...
It takes 3 face cords to make a cord. A facecord being 4x8x16” it doesn’t matter how long you buck your logs the cord amount is the same. You could make them 4 feet long or 16 inches a cord is still 128 cubic feet
I'm thinking about 7 cords. Also I wanted to say great video I will be very interested to see just how fast you grow. Happy Holidays and God Bless
When ordering a load of firewood you're not going to get the logs they sell those you get the tops of the trees which is the small stuff which equals no splitting
Yeah I get that but it should still be 7 or 8 cords in a 10 cord truck
I'm going to say about 6.75, that splitter is going to love that snack lol
For sure! Thanks for commenting!
Pay more attention to the. Tip of your bar. Seen you hit dirt a few times and dozens of near kick backs.cut from the end free hanging in the air. The drop rolls away keeping you in the next cut rather from moving pieces of wood.
Thanks I’ll keep that in mind
I found out the hard way. Had a kick back with a Husqvarna 395xp with a 36-inch bar put a thousand stitches in my face
I tryed to upload a photo of the carnage from my chin to my ear.
Ouch!
I don't want to guess want to know how much you got
3.14 cords that load was not worth it
@@WilliamsonRidge thanks
Happy holidays my friend
I’m hope you get your moneys worth! If I have to guess...7 cords. Good luck.
Been burning wood 40 years you get what you get bottom line take it as it comes loggers are not rich
3 chords
It was 3.14
I think that you only got five cords
Ended up only 3.14
1ST TIME WATCHING. SOME THOUGHTS FOR YOU AS YOU SAID YOU HAD LITTLE EXPERIENCE BUYING TRUCK LOADS OF WOOD. THIS IS MY EXPERIENCE LIVING IN NORTHERN WISC.AND BURNING WOOD FOR DECADES IN AN OUTDOOR BOILER. PULP TRUCKS (THAT'S WHAT THE TRUCKS ARE CALLED THAT HAUL BULK WOOD), BRING FIREWOOD TYPICALLY IN 10 T0 12 CORD LOADS. LOGS ARE 8' IN LENGTH AND COME IN VARIOUS DIAMETERS UNLESS SPECIFIED DIFFERENTLY. I PREFER MIXED DIAMETERS AS I PREFER NOT TO SPLIT EVERY LOG, SO SMALLER DIA. GOES IN STOVE WHOLE ETC. HERE WE PAY $90 TO $110 PER LOGGERS CORD (4'X4'X8' LOGS/128 CU.FT.) AND THIS IS ATYPICAL COST. SO...AT 4'X4'X8', 10 CORDS WOULD BE APPROX. 4' HIGH X 8' DEEP X 40' LONG. ONCE PROCESSED, THIS VOLUME WILL BE LARGER. A 15" DIA LOG WHOLE WILL TAKE UP SO MUCH SPACE. SPLIT IT 4 WAYS AND THE SAME LOG WILL GAIN AIR SPACE BETWEEN THE PIECES AND BE LARGER IN VOLUME. SO YOU CAN EXPECT 10 LOGGERS CORDS PROCESSED, ON THE GROUND TO TAKE UP MORE SPACE. THERE YOU HAVE IT. HOPE THIS HELPS YOU. NOW I HAVE TO SIT DOWN AND REST...GUESS I'M GETTIN' OLD ALSO. LOL
Thanks for the info!
Hi I guess 3 and 1/4 chords. Ray H from England U.K.
when I get log truck loads it is between 7 to 8 cords.
By volume there should be 9 cords including voids.
/It looks like you really laid the law down or got rid of the plugs. I saw you had some help for a while. You should be able to run right through that load with the new splitter. Be nice if you could find two people to help. The load of wood was alright if you didn't get burnt on the price. Thanks for the videos.
I got some help for a little while but lost it when she went for a ride LoL. Easy for the EastonMade. I have a video coming soon with two helpers. I think we may break even on the load of wood never gotten it like that before but you never know till u try, I’ll have an upcoming video explaining everything about it soon. Thanks!
order pallet logs
What are pallet logs?
You would have gotten 1 extra chord if you used a stihl.
LoL!
You mean a holzforma
What was the cost of the 20’ truck load of you don’t mind me asking? And how many cord did you figure it came out too?
$775 I got ripped off I got 3.14 cords
@@WilliamsonRidge oh man that sucks sorry to hear that. Did you end up finding a more reputable seller
No that’s actually the problem, I can’t get anyone around here to bring me logs, I’ve had one guy scheduled to come three times and he no showed three times then I offered to come pick them up and he said that would be great but when I said I could come he always had an excuse why I couldn’t, this guy even had logtruck loads for sale advertised on Facebook. I’ve called others and they don’t even return my calls. I don’t understand why you can’t buy log truck loads around here, oh well maybe I’ll find someone eventually.
Split and stacked should be 6 cords
Thats what I was thinking but it ended up being 3.14 cords
How much did the load of logs cost you?
$775
I'm guessing 6.5 cords on 20' log truck.
That’s what I was estimating I would get out of it too but it only ended up being 3.14cords
I will guess 6.4 cords of firewood. Thanks for video.
That cant hook looks like it wouldn't work well. My dad still makes them by hand in the forge in one piece with a solid hardwood handle turned on his wood lathe. People come from all over Ontario for them.
Awesome! The cant works good for the smaller stuff but is a bit short if you need to turn a really large log a little more leverage would be nice, but I think they were trying to keep it modular since it is a multi use tool
How much did the truck load cost?
$775
@@WilliamsonRidge thanks I appreciate it! I burn wood and was curious you can't find too much information online about it.
I can’t hardly find anyone around here that will even sell loads they had to deliver 1hr 1/2 to me, but it really wasn’t worth it, I only got 3 1/4 cords from it
@@WilliamsonRidge man that is unfortunate. I was looking into buying a big logging truck (semi) load of hardwood. They are supposed to have 12 cords for around 2,000 dollars, but as you said its virtually none around me and I'm in ohio. Thanks for taking the time to read and respond, I appreciate it.
I see log trucks around here all the time but I have called them and they never return my calls. I would love to be able to get loads like that it’s still a little pricey but if your selling it seasoned and sending out a good product you can charge accordingly. No problem, Happy New year.
Popular wood is listed as a hard wood
Yes but it has the characteristics of softwood like pine
Better than a snow ball 😀
I stopped at 14:22 I think you will have about 7.8 cords of wood (half way swagging at it because I still cant understand how much a cord of wood is lol!!!)
128 cubic feet, lol! Thanks for watching!
Hope ya hit the 500 fast 👍🤠
8 cords - I'm pulling for ya!
Thanks!
9.25 core
hi there new subscriber here i am going to guess 6 cord of wood .I bought a truck load of 8 foot wood and it was a lot of work cutting and spliting it .I paid $1300 for the load of wood and i got 6 cord you can pay $250 a cord cut split and in your woodhouse and no work
7.5 cords great video
Thanks so much!
@@WilliamsonRidge yes sir
I'm not sure I understand the quantity delivered. If you are saying that the pile you are cutting into, and the two rows that you have stacked is the total product delivered, then you DID NOT get 10 full cord delivered to you. 10x128=1280/20=64/2=8. The pile of logs on that 20ft truck would of had to have been 8ft wide between the uprights and 8ft high. Looks more like 10 face cords maybe is what they brought you. Anyway, if the truck was 20ft long, 8ft high and 8ft wide with long length wood, typically there is a 15% loss due to voids in the log pile. So you'd end up with 8.5 cord. But honestly, that pile you got only looks to be half that.
Hello Jim - Could you explain your math? I understand the 10 cords x 128 cu ft in a cord. But then you divide cu ft by ft (length of the logs) . You can't do operations with unlike units. So you got 64. 64 what? What is your unit of volume or measure you are using here? And then to divide it by 2? Where'd that come from? lol. The typical way to find the cu. amount of something is to take the length (20) and multiply that by the (here it is assumed) width (8) then multiply that by the (again assumed) height (8) - there's your 1280 cu ft. Now to see how many cords you have you would divide by the known volume of a cord which is 128 cu ft. This would give you 10 cords. I was going to ask you if you knew some cool little shortcut or trick, but then when I saw that you had the wrong answer, I decided better of it.
@@urkindaslow957 10 cords x 128 cu ft per cord = 1280 cu ft of logs. Seller said it was 20 cords, so 1280 cu ft., Use that 1280 cu ft as representing the storage capacity on his truck. Cubic space is measures by length x width x height. 1280 cu ft / 20 ft long cords = 64. 64 represents the remaining 2 measurements, width and height. Most log truck beds are 8ft wide. 64 sq ft / 8 ft width = 8ft of height.
@@WoodchuckCanuck 20 cords would be 2560 = 2 X 1280
@@danrossell6375 I was wondering how long it would take for someone to notice that. I didn't see a way to edit the comment afterwards.
I'm going to guess is 6.5 cord hope that the price was right and I'm going to guess about 7 hrs to split it all up on your own
Thanks for commenting
I like the video. Not sure if you did the giveaway yet but I think I would say its 5.8 cord. I didnt hear you say how long the logs were but I'm gonna guess they were 18 to 20 inches
Drawing and giveaway will be on Sunday so your in! Thanks! Your right the logs are 18 inches
I've kept a lot of heat in the house burning pine, poplar, and sycamore. Just saying.. Gotta run what ya brung.
Very true we burn a lot of pine poplar and sycamore but just prefer the hardwoods.
Very true.. Here in the Pacific inland northwest we get a lot of maple, black locust, chestnut just to name a few.. BUT, it's easier for the little lady (5 foot 8, 320 and can bench press a ford 8N tractor) to start the fire with nice dry pine.. Don't really need to have her pissed, let alone frustrated. I'm joking of course now that she's peaking over my shoulder. Keep the fires going.
LOL
You'll burn a lot of wood no matter what. If you have a wood lot your self and don't mind the work you maybe can pay for a wood boiler system. At these current propane prices you can't justify buying a wood boiler in my opinion.
7.35 cords
My guess in 4.68. cut split and stacked
Thanks for commenting
About 6 and a half cords
6.5 full cords to the truck load? Great video!
Thanks!
6.5 cord is what I think
6 cords I would think
Soooo this is not an old video, so I'll throw in my guess into the hat.. gotta be different, so...
8 1/3 Cords Split n Stacked.
Some gave you heat for doing more work, ie stacking the rounds, but Im glad you did that.
I know you wanted to get a visual that day, and so the video. Kudos!!! I would have done exactly the same thing.
Plus!!! It will be a great visual for YOU and all of your subs to see how many cords it looks like now, and how many it is when you are finished. (I am a new sub and may well do a video on this because I thought of doing the same thing also a few years back. I will give you a big shout out.
I have 7,000 subs so it should help you a bit:-)
What did you pay and what state are you in?
We could have gotten a truck load for 500 bucks.
I had Guessed that would have been 15 Cords.
From what I read from your experienced subs,
8 should be about right. I'm gonna look into that.
Thanks! Some don’t understand what it takes to get theses visuals and why. I really appreciate the shout out too. We ended up with 4.16 cords and will be stacking it too one to keep track of how muck we have but also for the visual too. The load cost 775 and we are in southern Ohio, the closest place I could get to even return my phone calls was 2 hrs away so I tried them, may be the last time unless they try to make it better next time.
4.5 cords
Looks great Paul. 7 cords!!!
Thanks Andrew!
7.5 but since you are stacking your logs in piles that look tight I am dropping my answer to 6.5....
5.5 cords!
Hi Pam!
I'm in northern california looking to buy a few truckloads of logs. Any idea where I can purchase them?
I searched Facebook marketplace and ran across a logging company, I tried looking up their number online but no one would ever return my call.
I guess 5 cords
8 1/2 cords
What’s wrong with burning sycamore? I like mixing sycamore in with red oak.
Nothings wrong with it we burn plenty of sycamore pine and poplar it just seems when u start selling some, people tend to prefer oak hickory and cherry around here at least anyway, I know other parts of the country fur and pine are the popular choice I guess it really depends on where your located and what’s readily available
Looks like about 10 face cord... hope you didn't pay more than 500 for that load
I got 3.14 cords and I paid 675 thought that buying a 20 foot triaxle I would get about 6 but they loaded it with quit a bit of small twisty stuff
