I send all my pine there via the trucker's contract..I don't blink an eye with a 3" dead knot if the log is bigger than, say, 16"...it goes. I average 9200 -10,000 feet to a trailer load, and usually get 200-300 feet knocked to pallet. They scale very very well, but then again, I saw up for scale- not grade. If I see the diameter of a log is going to drop 3" between a 12 and a 14 or 16, I cut a 12. Only time I don't is when I would waste wood. They prefer 12 and 16 now, and would prefer not to get 10 or 14 foot logs..But I won't waste wood, so they get what I cut.

Your money is made on the landing, you know that.:msp_biggrin:
