Thats a very nice looking load of logs, I have seen a few loads around here destinined for pallets that dont look nearly that well.
Finally got around to cutting everything up. I have it all cut up and most of it split. I think I am going to come in right around 5 cords. (15 4'x8'x16" stacks) I'm very happy with the wood. I'm going to order several more loads. It makes it a pretty good bargain when you don't have ton start a truck to get your firewood. It will be a little while before I know the amount for sure. I am sending it through the kiln.

I traded a logger an old two ton truck for three loads of logs, he's only delivered one so far, he's six months overdue but to answer your question, he brought a ford f700
with all the logs he could haul on it with pipes for load securing on the sides and basically a 1/2 load on his skidder trailer and it only made 9 cord. I was disappointed in the quanity, he had told me it would be 12 cord. I hope you have better luck.
So that's $450 for the 5 cords, or $900? Sorry if that ? is in poor taste, I buy wood and it always bugs me wondering if I got a decent deal.
i think it would come out ok... if you charge $150.00 a cord you would make a profit.. add in some free wood and it brings down cost per cord a bit. sounds like a deal to me...i was joking with you on the op... if you didn't get that...around here wood sells for up to $185.00 a cord for kiln dried wood. so if you watch the expenses it will come out ok.
