I called my log supplier earlier this week and inquired about a grapple load of logs either this Fall or earlier next Spring.  He said quality logs are hard to come by lately, that I should check back in 2 to 3 weeks to see if he has anything for me.  Anyway I inquired about cost.  The last load of logs I purchased from him cost me $1200.00 for a 12 cord load; that was 2 years ago.  This time around due to hard to find quality logs it will cost $1500.00.  Unfortunately, no one else in my area sells quality log length firewood.  I guess I'll have to sit and wait to see what he says in 2 to 3 weeks from now.  Roger

Prices here are $350-$400 cord for delivered seasoned oak, but I don't think there is any dry oak to be bought.  I sold a buddy a cord last year at $150.00.  He told me last week that he thinks he ripped me off.  I guess it looks that way, although he did pick it up and prices were $150-200 delivered last year, so I am ok with that.

Matty, the permit for cutting on county land is available on our county's website.  They call it a fuelwood permit.

I got 2 semi loads last spring, logger friend needed $$$ (think I paid like $100 or $150 CASH/cord, 8' sticks) and I requested/got some junky ash  and maple mixed togther.  When I say junky, I mean junky for a mill, but great for firewood; the sticks were any where from 2" up to about 12", and either forked, twisted, split of slightly bowed.

Logger said the mill did not want the logs (or were not going to pay him enought to make it worth his time/monety) &  he already had the logs stacked in the landing

**Also nice to help out a family friend and small business owner

Yes, that's a truck and trailer cost.  2 years ago the guy guaranteed 12 cord per load but when I finished cutting, splitting and stacking it there was 13 1/2 cord.
