Sounds good. You selling hardwood or dogwood? If hardwood, Price seems fair for the regions I run around. Closer to the city one could get a bit more.
Are you selling in log lengths? If not, how are you splitting? Always nice to have to have cash in hand.
384 cu ft of firewood for $450 cut and split I'd be really tempted . Lowest price I've seen around here (a year ago) was $225/cord and that was the three cord bulk discount. I got a bargain half cord from a neighbor that was moving out/divorce was selling stuff cheap and even then it had too much poplar and mystery wood in it that when all was said and done I was actually doing him a favor helping to clean out his yard. It was fairly lousy firewood. It was seasoned/dry, I'll give it that.
Where is the OP??????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????
OHIO Maybe he got really, really, really lucky for Christmas Maybe he's really, really, really busy playing with his wood business.
That is a great deal. I would have no problem spending 450 on that load. I have paid close to $200 for 2 face cords in the past on Long Island.
Loosed tossed like it is on the conservative side a cord is 180 cubic feet. 180 x 3 = 540 cubic feet divided by = 20 cubic yards. If what you are delivering is like post #15 you are shorting people by a LOT!
well they've all asked to be put on the list for next year, so i guess the definition a deal is when both parties are happy.
Sounds like a good rationalization for shorting people. Why don't you just call it a big truck load of wood and not use the term "3 cords" as this is a legal definition in some states and can get the attention of weights and measures. An example. Title 10, ยง2302: Definitions
