My family owns a sawmill. Been selling firewood in some capacity for 25+ years. We sell it strictly by the facecord. We have about 50 racks built 4’x8’ and roughly 18” deep. Bring a rack over to the splitter with the skid steer. Fill the rack and put it out to the road with the skid steer. It is 65$/facecord. I’ve heard about full cords my whole life but we’ve never measured that way. You pick up for $65/facecord. It’s all on the honor system. Put your cash in the box before you load it. If you pay more or have something to barter with, delivery could be available but we try to get away from that because it’s not worth it. Firewood is a major part of my life and from the age of 12, some of my best memories have been doing firewood with my gramps. I get $150/face cord delivered for 16" wood. $100 if they pick up.

Here where I am, about 11,450 rubles ($150) for cord for unsplit Douglas fir or lodgepole pine (we have virtually no hardwood available). I enjoy getting my own, so it's probably about $500/cord counting vehicle gas, saw gas/oil, amortization of saw, truck, time to fell, buck, split, stack, etc. Dont forget to depriciate the cost of that wood shed.....

In Northern NY $60-$65 for a 16” face cord, 4’x8’x16”, delivered. So it equates to $180-$195/ full cord, 32 cu feet. How many thousand face cords do you want ? All northern hardwood.

Now, in the middle of the heating season and increasing costs for Biden fuels; I am seeing a corresponding increase in firewood.
100% oak, split & dry...not delivered = $500.00/cord. That is up from $400, just a few weeks back.

I piled up and burned 4 large trees that fell in pastures and hayfields this past fall. 2 were red oak. Couldn't get anyone to come cut them up.
For by grace are you saved by faith, and not of yourselves, it is the gift of God.
