I HAVE THREE 2005 OFF-ROAD MINI ATV'S. THEY ONLY HAVE ABOUT 10-20 HOURS OF DRIVE TIME. THE BATTERY ON THEM DOES NEED TO BE RECHARCHED AFTER EACH USE, BUT I'M SURE THAT COULD EASILY BE FIXED. PRICE IS $1100 FOR ALL THREE OR $350 EACH.

Free Firewood

http://martinsburg.craigslist.org/zip/1253359641.html

I have several trees in my yard that can be used for firewood, some that are oak. If you come and cut them down, it is yours absolutely free. I will provide help and will deal with the scrap, branches etc. You can just take what you'd like. There is not a lot of room to work with to get the trees down. It will probably require some climbing or a bucket truck and some ropes. House, and powerlines surround the area.

Sounds more to me like some city dweller who bought property and doesn't know how to/doesn't want to get their hands dirty. Sorry...I just have a beef against people who drive up the cost of land for those who would actually care for a place with their own two hands.

+ 1,000,000

We have lots of those "citiots" up here. More than doubled the cost of an acre of woodland so that they can post the land so no one hunts it, except them. The price has gotten so high that the locals are not able to buy it. Mostly goes to rich professionals that put a little RV or trailer house on it. Then, my favorite part......a few of the really nasty ones will walk the non-posted land beside theirs and drive the deer into their woods so they can have plenty of opportunities for shooting!

 

[avalancher]

This guy really made me laugh.Not only does he want you to cut the tree down for free, he wants to keep the main stem!


I have 2 huge pine trees. 1 is 9ft around base. 1 is 12ft around base. (blount/knox)

(that is probably valid, as the bright 'Poulan Bad Boy 22 Tim Allen signature series' paint is about perfect on the bar. If you are ready to move up from the Wild Thing, here's your chance. $325 is asking price for ONE, not a carton of 12..........)

The post I was commenting on was based around Hudson, WI... Most of the rural/recreational property over that way is being bought by well-to-do's out of MSP.

I've seen it all over WI. Growing up, every friday starting after Memorial Day, and ending on Labor Day, it was a non-stop stream of IL license plates headed north.

Now it's farms around my in-laws that are being bought up and the local young farmers are priced out of the market to start out on their own... Who pays $4000 per acre for hayfields? You can't work the land, maintain equipment, and feed your family with that millstone around your neck.

A branch recently fell from a tree into my yard. I’m thinking that it could be used for firewood or sold or something.

It’s in two pieces. It’s 5” or 6” across at its widest point, and is more than 10’ long. I don’t want any money for the branch. I just want the person who takes it to take all of it (both pieces) off my property. 917-399-7817

Saw this listing:

WANTED: Grapple of hardwood - $1 (WEARE)

Thought I was in for a laugh but found it to be a typo:

I am looking for a grapple of firewood (8-14 cords). Please be prepared to answer questions, how much vs yield, and species. Exapmle: for sure it will yield ten cords, for $1,000.
Ok for mix but majority needs to be oak, hickory, hard maple, ash. NO PINE, COTTON, etc.

Thanks

JJ,

Welcome to A.S. and thanks for sharing.

You need to copy the link from the header of the page that the C.L. ad is posted on if you want us to be able to see it; not the 'respond to' link (just generates an e-mail message to the poster).

It's even better if you copy and paste the text and photo, as the links dissapear as soon as the ad is deleted, and then nobody gets to enjoy them.
