Started clearing a fence line and we are hauling with a 25 foot gooseneck trailer. How many cord of wood do you think will fit per load? These are full loads of logs. Just trying to get a rough idea.
The trailer is a 20+5, which means 20 ft deck length and 5 ft dove tail. It is 10 ft wide. We are loading logs with hoe/skid steer and the trailer is rated at 14K lbs. How many cord of logs will fit. Just guess don't get too scientific.
We are trying to judge the amounts because we burn a lot of wood with 2 OWBs.

3 cords is about all you have the axles for, and depending on species, even that is pushing it.. 14,000 LBS of axle weight minus about 4500 for the wieght of the trailer leaves 9500 pounds give or take.
Why must you assume it only has 7000 lb. axles underneath it? :msp_w00t:

Ummm... probably because the original poster said the trailer was rated for 14,000 lb.
