BOILER FIREWOOD PEOPLE ARE CHEAP!

People who burn wood for fun will pay more for firewood and people who heat with wood ALWAYS want the best firewood at the cheapest price...BECAUSE they are trying to save money...fun people will always pay more for fun and firewood!

I am missing " the old days "

When you offered two minutes of intro and two minutes of outro and twenty minutes of actual work / production.

I've spent 20+ years in customer service. Your attitude toward customers is fair. You set clear boundaries, make sure they get value, but your time isn't wasted. This balance and fairness is part of what keeps me coming back to your vids. You get it.

I have a funny dog named Chunk... so imagining a trailer full of 2.5 full cords of Chunks is a hilarious image.

I got my last to totes from my camp yesterday while there was a break in the weather. I will appreciate it in February. Have a great weekend!

Heating with Purchased wood even at $300 per full chord does NOT save homeowners much money compared to heating using natural gas or heating oil. Wood heating is great for supplemental heating on cold windy days and a must for heating when there are power outages.
For all of the work we do stacking, loading the wood stove, cleaning out the wood stove there is very little savings when we purchase wood. They only true way to save money is by getting the wood for free from a tree service or gathering downed trees and doing all the splitting and cutting ourselves, which is a lot a work for the heating cost savings.

My 2 brothers and I had a logging business in upstate NY back in the late 70's after the dairy farm went under. We sent our # 2 logs & tops back to our farm for firewood. We would work on firewood when we were between logging jobs and when we couldn't get in the woods . We also delivered a lot of firewood, but our best bang for the buck was truckers bringing loads of steel from NYC to the plants in the nearby city. They didn't want to go back empty, so they would come to the farm & we would load them up! Best day we had 4 semi's lined up waiting.

Years back about 30 years ago Irvin woodland's use to pull the stumps of the trees they cut down and would give them away for free. They would even deliver the stumps to anyone that wanted them . This was in Maine and Irvin Woodlands owns about 350, 000 acres in Aroostook County. The problem was Most people had to way for them to store them and then most had no way to split them. So for the small few that could handle huge stumps they had it made it was all free wood and you didn't have to do anything to get it. All you had to pay was the gas to cut and split it up.
Knowing this people knew you was getting the wood for free so they wanted to get the wood as cheap as they can. When you tell them hey now the wood might be free but the wear and tear on the saws and the wood splitter plus the gas and bar oil and everything cost me money not to mention my time to work with it. Then you have the real smart wise people that say well I will just get my wood from someone ells. With a smile I say ok that is fine . a week later they come back looking to buy my wood and I up the price. They didn't like that. I make it clear I don't play childish games . See back 30 years ago a full cord was about 125 dollars I was selling it at 75 because the wood was free. When people try to cheap my work and get all they can for little I just up the price to what it cost for a full cord.
Might sound mean but I didn't need to sell I was burning wood for heat anyways. Maine was a high demand for wood no matter where in Maine you lived.

I was just looking at all my chunks tonight. I think got about what need for heat next winter. The tree service wood seem to be about 1/3 of it to be chunks. Keep up the good work. Stay warm.

So right about fruiting woods Chris. We are surrounded by orchards so a lot of those woods. I scored afew ute loads of olive wood.I'd drive a long way for more. Heavy as, beautiful smell when burning, great in the smoker. Good video mate. Cheers from HB NZ

I really enjoy your videos as I plan on selling some firewood in the future well I’ve sold a little but I’m still working as a machinist for a company but I hope to get more involved in firewood going forward . Thankyou .

[jameschandler]

Today you are in English. I don't know why it is just you. There have been 2 or 3 times that you were in Italian and I can't change it back to English. You are the only channel this has happened on. Ash is wonderful. I just found some in one of my wood piles. It burns so nice.

[alittleofthisandalittleofthat]

I can’t understand why people think you don’t know how much you are putting in the trailer or truck box. Repetition makes you very accurate in your measure. 👍 I live in apple country and years ago the trees were very big and as the farmers took them out to replant the dwarf and semi dwarf trees my father and I would go cut them down. Very nice hot wood to burn but nasty stuff to split and pile.

[markdyballuk]

ah you make me smile Chris, thanks for that it's important you know. hope your pa is doing ok and that pesky snow is clear now. 👍

[larryvankirk]

Nice job Chris. That load of wood will make the Tundra get around better in your forecasted snowstorm. Today is the day that I have Dr appointment with surgeon who did my hernia surgery last month. Patience is growing thin to get back into something resembling work. GNI

[two-strokesmoke]

Time is money and we all only got so much here in Northwestern SD this morning, -20 F Saturday. (and probably wind)

[larryterrell]

Great explanation for types of wood usages, I supplement with wood heat so I’m always hustling the cheapest $ investment. It’s a numbers thing for me, I curious how many wood hounds sell all their production and use the thermostat for heat. 👏🏻🇺🇸.

[timrydman-mrhp]

I like how your mic was accumulating snow. The piece of wood you didn't know could it have been pear? That truck is very nice. Run it till it quits. 500, 000 miles +.

[motordome]

More next year when hopefully I am retired from my photography business. Well because you have no music AGAIN during chucking time, and we had this talk last week Chris. I am now 100% percent sure you are retired and not just lazy. 🤣🤣🤣 keep up the entertaining educational videos my someday competition firewooder if I ever get my lazy but in gear.

[davidedwards]

My uglies go to people who burn in the back yard, that don't have to worry about stacking in fireplace. Great video!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
