When buying logs for firewood how much are you paying per cord? I live in central Pennsylvania.
Around here, timber production just about doesnt exsist any more. Any large timber sales are thru the US Forest Service on government lands. The large timber companies are now havesting and chipping the tops for bio fuel. Private timber sales are usually tracts of land bought up by developers and logged by smaller logging companies. As soon as the timber is removed, its bring in the dozers and burn the brush. If your on your toes, you can get some wood as the loggers are logging if you have a saw, time, and a truck. About the only timber left for firewood is what comes off a buck saw or, from clearing for house sites.I would be paying cash but would want some higher quality stuff. I am also going to check into buying tree tops from land owners that have had land logged. Right now I am.cutting some tree tops and they are pretty nice quality!
You guys have it good at those prices. 6-8 cord picker load her around 1000-1200. Anything I can buy less than 150 a cord in my driveway is a good deal for me.
