    Yes, this is a bit tongue in cheek lol. My good friend at the tree service will often take my dump trailer to a job with nice trees on it, load it and I just pick up at his place. Gets him an extra trailer, and I get some pretty nice logs. His Dingo will only lift so much obviously, so I get some pretty short pieces. I prefer 8' to 12' feet as I cut my boiler wood at 24". That being said, for free Oak & Hard Maple I can work around the shorter logs. The two piles in the bottom pics were all tornado damage from a town 10 miles SW of me in May. He spent four days just clearing hazard trees so people could tarp roofs and access their homes & buildings. I think I hauled 10 or 12 trailer loads for him that week. At one point I think we had 8 dump trailers running. Lots of good firewood, but it came at a pretty high price for the folks in the direct path. By the Grace of God there were no injuries at least. Plenty of property damage though.
