Update 3/11/26:

Last week I acquired the log splitter needed to make at least a face chord of wood smaller so it will dry by next winter making this a 2 year problem,

Not only is the wood dirty but it is so unevenly split that I will have to rent a splitter to split the bigger pieces so they start to dry. I am not a pauper and bought their going rate. They never offered to make up the 1/4 chord they shorted me. Did I say how dirty it is still. Don't be fooled by a meter stuck into the end or outside of a piece of wood. Have them split a piece for you and meter the very center.

Since they acquire random dead trees, the is no consistent density. Some are so rotted they are very light and others very heavy.

Just don't buy here. Too Bad zero or negative stars are not an option.

WORTH READING. SUMMARY OF THIS REVIEW:

THEIR WOOD TO ME QUOTED AS BEING VERY DRY WAS 30%
INSIDE WHEN I BOUGHT A METER AND SPLIT OPEN A PIECE!!!!

GO SOMEWHERE ELSE!!!

It is amazing how they show all reviews and there are none less than 5 stars. Also are any of them for wood? They make a point of showing with a moisture meter that the wood is around 13%. Why are they so afraid of my review for wet wood and being shorted 1/4 cord?

They were freaked about an honest review of their unburnable wood. They said the wood was great and they were burning it in their various stoves and boilers. HA HA. If you split wood, the very outside will dry quickly. But it is INSIDE where the moisture counts. Now if they took a piece and split it open and measured the very center of it, I promise you that you would pass. They secure dead trees and split them and then sell them.

The wood was so bad I bought a moisture meter. The wood which was causing issues that I was finishing during split was 20% inside. THEIR WOOD WAS 30%.

To add insult to injury, to keep the wood burner going, after a couple attempts to burn this "2 chord" of wood, they shorted me about a face chord( maybe a bit more. I paid premium for a chord of ash. I made no more than two failed attempts before getting a meter to tell ne inside moisture was at 30%. A half chord would be 8' x 6'. A face chord is 1.5' wide, 8' long and 4 feet high. My racks due to assembly message are 7" shorter in length and 3.5" in height.
The photos show 3 and a partial 4th row. That void is 3' in height
and given three other row mostly 1/2 chords I figure I was shorted most of a face chord(4' height and 8' long). By definition a chord is 4' wide, 4'high and 8' long.

That is simply insult to injury. Do not get wood here.

Feb review:

I am extremely disappointed in the "burnable" chord wood I was just suckered into buying. I had a moisture meter coming Tuesday but bought 2 chord anyways from the things they told me. "Oh, we burn it in our wood fire boiler, wood stove and fireplace. It is measuring 14-16%". NOT. I tried 4 hours to get a fire burning in my insert with that wood after getting a reasonable coal base from burning some of the ash which was so so to ignite and burn. After getting my tester and splitting a triangle piece of their wood it measured 30%. Going back to burning my 20% wood from a fall purchase. I was buying for NOW. I'll have to get it off my lawn suppose it will be fine for next winter. Have 1/2 chord plus left for the winter but wood people just can't say the truth about how dry their wood is. Buy what you need in the early spring for the next winter. PARDON MY SHUTTING, BUT THEY LIED BIG TIME. Useless pile for this winter.

I bought firewood cut to my requested length. Delivery came on time and as I requested. Will use again. Thanks

We FINALLY decided to have someone come in and do our spring clean-up and thatching. Cote Landscaping did a beautiful job! It would have taken us weeks to get it done, and not as well!!! Thank you Russ and Melissa!!!
