A couple large firewood companies in central kansas had a video up on their facebook pages of a semi with dual trailers dropping off what they claimed was 40 cord, looked like half that, but didn't know if that much was possible. Dual trailers, and it was seasoned hickory, all of it. No companies around here have that much to sell, im trying to expand, and make some winter cash guys. I would take 10 cord, seasoned, oak. I think what they got was what was too small for the mill to take. Mill told me minimum sizes on oak, walnut, cedar, etc. So i figure those guys down in OK or TX are selling off what the mill wont take by the semi load. Im in NE KS, and shipping another 6 hours this way would cost big time, so thats why i was looking for a more local supplier. I was even willing at some point to pay increased shipping fee from the same company that dropped it off to them, but they aren't saying who shipped it, i can understand if they are worried about competitors but im no where close enough to take business from them, just trying to expand my business. I have spots were i can cut that much, but im just looking to cut some costs and go big. If you know of someone that can deliver green oak, let me know, i might be willing to take 10 cord and let it sit a year. Hadn't considered it yet though, cause i saw all that dry hickory getting unloaded and saw the dollar signs. I know up in michigan some are getting full cords for $50 off the truck, log form, its triple once cut and split. Just doing math, i know i could stay in the heat and pay some guys around here who need some work, and still make some cash. Im looking to help myself, along with a few ppl that could use the cash. Hope you guys understand what im tryin to do, i tend to ramble even when i type lol.
