Since your apperantly not going to buy a loader why dont you just cut them into thin disc's to pick them up?

We will try all the things already mentioned, short of hiring stock boys, but if the hunks of wood are big, and you have to take them, lay them on their side and rip them with your biggest saw into pieces that are liftable.
Remember guys, he runs Craftsman saws.
 
I usually split the pieces I cut into 1/2s or 1/4s depending on size. Most the time I sell people on putting on the front yard with a FREE sign. If its good wood its gone a a week orless depending on the road they're on. But really a log-loader or knuckleboom is the way to go if you have to remove it.
 
Rip them down till they will go through the chipper.

Good fire wood, or chunks too big to rip and chip we will set several blocks on the box frame or a near by tree and use the GRCS or another truck to winch them up to the bed gate.
