If it wasn't on the south side of Dayton I would maybe get some. Little far for me and I am still working on my pile from last winter scrounges. Looks like enough for a few people.
 
got them around here too....almost word for word.

one of my favorites is: "i'm handicapped and can't cut wood, so if you can deliver some free, split, seasoned wood...."
I called the Council on Aging to see if anyone was in need of a load of firewood. Got one referral, Hauled to his place and dumped just outside the garage door. Now I was pushing 70, him perhaps 50 and in a lot better shape than I. He expected me to pack it into the shed and split it smaller. I left him the pile where it was.

Sheesh! Reminds me of my wife's grandmother. She'd go down to the old-folks home and help feed the elderly, most of whom were a good deal younger than she was! She died at 101 not to long ago.
Good for you for being so generous, and also for being so wise about dealing with him.
 
Sounds like a good buy, just wonder what I have to do to get the "a piece" price? Drive out of the driveway and then return?

You'd be surprised at what people will buy. I had a huge locust round that was missing about 70% of the wood in the middle. It sat in my driveway for months, and when my sister saw it she snagged it immediately to use as a flower planter or something. One man's junk is another man's treasure.
 
Here's another picky person wanting free firewood in the Dayton area. It not only has to be free, but must be 15" or less in diameter if unsplit, and must have been aged at least 6 months. Good luck with that!

"Looking for free unwanted firewood split or not split wood must be seasoned at least 6 months and be under 15" round will pick up"

I feel like cutting a branch off one of my pine trees into a few pieces and dropping it off. An ad asking for free wood is one thing, but saying it has to be seasoned come on.
 
Log splitter for trade, looking for a snow plow for my truck possibly. Will listen to other offers worst I'll say is no thanks but send real offers with pictures AND details. Not gonna waste my time having to ask you 20 questions to find out what it is you're really offering if you send a simple response like "trade for a truck"

So here's a guy that wants details, while offering zero on behalf of his item. He's not going to waste his time, but reserves the right to simply tell you "no thanks" after you spend yours detailing your offer :rolleyes:
