I never thought about BUYING firewood and splitting it. I always tried to figure where I could cut trees down myself. This would have been a great business to be in when I came home from the service in 1974...

But I do live 2h away from city with population of 2mln and I hope it will be my profit right there. I have already done it in Northern Europe. But since I'm here now.. Lets keep money rolling.

Just watched your video and have been thinking of doing bundled firewood and I think this spring in 2022 I will give it a go just small at 1st I do process about 50 tri axle loads of firewood per year its nice money for part time work bundles would make more profit now that I have retired from my job of 43 years. I do run a dyna SC-16 that I have had for the last 10 years was looking for processor when I ran across the dyna it was a repossession with 350 hours mads offer of 22000 thousand to the bank and they took it. It was 6 months old and new was 50000 thousand that was good luck for me it has been a back saver
@MrTiger0002
@MrTiger0002 2 года назад
You can add a 'handle' to your bundle. Simply go one more wrap but bunch up the wrap to the middle at the top and let to go around the bundle until it reaches the 'handle.' Then you can put two pieces of packaging tape on each side of the handle to hold the loose end of the wrap. I think sticker is easier and better label... don't need to be that big. Just some thoughts.

Retailers (over here) have at least a 30% - 35% margin, so (over here, Again) they earn more per bundle than Joe, who does all the work… OK, they have the financing and inventory risk + overhead costs but with close to 0% intrest rates for the time being, a bundle sold on a road side stand delivers more per bundle when priced somewhat below what the retailers do ask for.

Good video and information. Only just found this but I am going to start selling camp firewood this year and see how it goes. I can get 2 to 3x the money for the same firewood and the same work as I will with home heating firewood. I am also thinking that presentation is everything. I look around literally everywhere I go and most firewood bundles are sloppy and poorly presented. What do you think about putting together a nice display rack for retail businesses instead of having it tossed on the ground? I am considering making racks cause I have my own sawmill too.

Hi Joe! We are new to the bundled firewood game. A few retailers I’ve contacted are reluctant because they would most likely keep it outside and they are not a 24 hour business and are worried about theft. Are you mostly in 24 hr businesses?
@TheDriftlessHomestead
@TheDriftlessHomestead 2 года назад
One thing to consider... I have a stand at my house and still loose a couple. Wal-Mart has a system where the pay as the customer buys. Eliminating their labor and the supplier labor of checking in the product. So maybe if you accept the risk of your low cost product being stolen it will still pay off?
@ohiowoodburner
@ohiowoodburner 2 года назад
All my accounts keep the wood inside. The industry term used for losses to theft etc is "Shrink." If the area is prone to high shrink maybe that location wouldn't be a good fit bc they would want to sell them cheaper and therefore want to pay you less per unit? I was working on a deal for a gas station chain that wanted me to come up with a lockable bin but for that extra work and given the $$ he was wanting to pay me per bundle it wasn't worth my time. I went and found higher end retailers.

Hi Joe, as usual great information. In speaking with a supplier of firewood bags, the cost of bags seems pretty significant in the total cost of the product vs. the cost of shrink wrap. Less upfront cost, but higher ongoing costs for using bags. The same supplier gave some advice it's best to try and sell direct, make more money that way. He said that if a bag of firewood sells at a store for $7.50 you'll get about $4.50 to $5.00 a bag. How has your experience been with direct sales? Higher profit, maybe lower volume? Can you give your thoughts on website design, cost, and ongoing maintenance and any ongoing monthly fees? Thanks for all your positive advice, it's very helpful to a budding firewood bundling entrepreneur - Will

Sounds great, but you gotta remember, other businesses have beancounters too. Other locations that buy wholesale take half of the retail for themselves. I'd love to live in the world that you do, but around here, it's just a fantasy. Everyone has a BIL, ne'r do well nephew, or other, that makes firewood. Running up SR83 to take a load to my client in Cleveland, almost every other house had a sign by the driveway, "Firewood for Sale". So the only 'hook' I had was delivery, and quantity. And bundle wood was a disaster! One campground wouldn't even discuss it. They bundled their own, so I offered them a 3 cord truckload for $375. They'd already said "No", said "no" again, and told me to leave their property. How absolutely unsuccessful can you be? Luckily, my Cleveland retailers were not so hard to deal with. Be careful with "Success is guaranteed if you want it". If every bit of profit goes to your daughter's school, what do you live on? I only ask out of poverty....uh....curiosity.

He said the money from the merch and i believe the channel pays for his daughter's college. Not his business. You have a really negative small mindset. Of course there's always limitations in business but if your biggest and first limitation is yourself, you're not going as far as you would have otherwise. There's plenty of limitations without you being one of them. You're going to hear no a lot of times before you get a yes.

Hi Joe for me being in South africa, I'm just thinking whats the US pricing on the twister. A lot of your equipment your using not available here in SA.

@ohiowoodburner 2 года назад
In the US a Twister costs around $2000. They have different models but I think that is a good estimate for your research.

Joe, with the camp grounds that you sell to, did they already have bundles for sale? All of my local camp grounds already sell bundles and was wondering how you would approach this situation
@ohiowoodburner
@ohiowoodburner Год назад
Hi Tyler. I don't sell to campgrounds. I don't see there being enough profit with them. Too much volume, too small $$. If you want to approach them ask them if they are happy with their current provider. I wouldn't expect to underbid them bc there prob isn't much of a markup to begin with. Notice if they complain that the guy is too unresponsive, won't answer his phone, etc. Win them over with service

What I have found is due to Honda utilizing no pay no penalty , and cutting people 3. Days per week over the summer(instead of them being able to use unemployment) there has been 1000% increase in people selling, producing firewood, bundles and small amount roadside stands. The people in this area are selling firewood bundles at $2.50 or less wholesale delivery, and running as hard as they can to make as little as they can.(badge of honor apparently,people brag how low they got their profit margin). The market is extremely diluted now because they were paid a part time wage at $20+ hr then had the time to produce. At the same time road side produce stands have jumped about 400% too. DJT covid policy really put the smack on self employed person's, and I thinks so intentionally.

I know you have a background in retail. How do you figure out what a retailer is paying their suppliers for the bundles. For example I see at the gas station they are selling bundled firewood at $7.49 each what are they actually paying the suppliers for that bundle? Thanks Joe for all your information.
@ohiowoodburner
@ohiowoodburner 2 года назад
Hi Dana... from my experience the retailers shoot for a 40% markup. I use a free app that has a mark up calculator on it. I find what a local store sells it for and do my calculation. that becomes my target price for that particular account.
