    My wife loves wood heat, but doesn't want stacks all over our yard. Thankfully, my buddies fam owns a construction business and he, his dad, and I share the work load on heating with wood. They've got the equipment (trailers and bobcats) and we share the costs of a splitter we purchased a couple years back. They also have tons of room for stacks and processing so I have to haul about 4 blocks to my house. I do have room for a couple cords, but the area is completely blocked from wind and gets little to know sunshine due to trees and privacy fence. Here's a couple pics of our stacks, processing area, and a trailer load of ash, mulberry, and some locusts headed to replenish what I've burned this fall and winter. [​IMG][​IMG][​IMG][​IMG]

    Nice setup!

    I really like your trailer, especially the extra tongue boxes. What make is that?

    Homemade make 5 x 10' x 36" tall. It isn't mine but I seem to use it more than my buddy that built it. Fits just over a cord stacked right. Wish it dumped but beggars can't be choosy.
