When I need a little pick me up, I visit my local Woodmart. It calms my nerves about running out. some The Wood Wolverine size chunks
There's some really nice potential firewood in that pile. What becomes of the logs that don't get claimed? Do they go into a chipper?
Most is too big for the chippa. The only logs that may go to the tub grinder yard are the poplar and white pine logs. Everything else is mine. I occasionally stop by to make sure no one is pilfering my gems. The chestnut oak logs are 14’ so I need to mark and cut them before someone else hacks them up to fit the dump bed.
Blue light special? Can you process on site or do you have to take as is? Some decent wood despite the size.
I take it as is and do the fine tuning at home. You ever have those times of panic when you take anything and everything. I have a couple of those piles at home that will produce a lot of trash, or rot where they lay.
Not necessarily a panic. There's been a couple times, but most junk come from gnarly sections. I've now started cutting normal length uglies in half and into the nuggets bins. Since I buck first I can weed out any undesirable logs and sections (when possible) at the score/source. How will you dispose of those piles? Rot in place?
I am working on filling a pool, I have a big sink area on my lot, city will pick up stuff at the road
