    They are plastic with debris and grass clippings from the weed eater. I got lucky and picked up a bunch of plastic pallets a while ago. I need more but I know I’m preaching to the choir. I would like to line the floor of my future shed with plastic pallets too

    I have some plastic pallets. Built a bin for chunks and shorts. It's posted in "Git'ter done down in Dixie" thread.

    All unloaded. Just cut it up in the truck as we unloaded it. Was some good size pieces though.

    I started work early today and finished some work at the first customer around noon. The second customer canceled on me so I came home and went into the woods. This Red Oak was cut and split last winter. We left it in several piles and my friend is coming to stack it this weekend. I thought I would get a head start so all he has to do is dump it and stack. He doesn’t have a good place at his house to stack it so he has a section of my field where he keeps his stash. It is Red Oak and about a wheelbarrow worth of Maple from a small tree that was collateral damage when the Oak was dropped.

    Brought this heaping load of hickory over to my friends to restock part of his shed. We had moved wood yesterday to his front porch.

    You are correct, I don’t load my truck anymore. The hitch is the only thing that gets loaded on my truck since I picked up the trailer.

    Spent the day with Ed aka Wood Doctor from OPE and the other site cutting up this mulberry. We both got nice loads plus the homeowner wants us back for several small dead trees. Won't be a big amount, but will all be straight with a minimum of knots to deal with.

    20180427_143903.jpg Mulberry is one of my favorite heating woods. This was just a little one. IMG_20161230_160912.jpg Round here they can get pretty big if left alone.

    Locust, Pignut, and some punky Black Walnut.

    For my first post I'll show off some of these wonderful nuggets of warmth, really hoping I don't kill the 22RE in the ole Yota ! I often drive right by a commercial scale on my way home so I'll throw in some numbers too. this first load is 1680 lbs only 870 lbs over the GVWR. lets just say the bump stops were getting intimate on this trip !
