I'm a retired hobby cutter and primarily pick on dead standing / down wood for quick turnaround. The bags are an interesting topic. As you and the customer(ha-ha) were unloading the bag, I was waiting for some mice or some other critter to come jumping out of there. Worse case would be a snake trying to get out and of course that would probably happen to a female customer...LOL! Not good for sales.

I am a consumer and a seller. I exclusively use those bags. I split into a conveyor that dumps into the bag. I then use a mini excavator to move them onto a pallet. For my personal use around fall I bring the bags over to my firewood shed and stack it in there. For clients that I sell to I use the mini excavator to place the bag in a dump trailer. I place a chain in the loops at the bottom and once its in the dump trailer I use that chain to flip it upside down. I get my wood from tree service companies and local contractors that are clearing land. I take the wood they give me and use the mini excavator to stack the lengths and won't cut them up until the following year.

when I was young, my 5 acre property furnished all the firewood I needed each winter. About 10 years ago, I started buying some, about 60% of my needs, and resorted to cutting smaller trees to lessen my labor. Then a couple of years ago....when I hit 70, I resorted to buying my firewood already split and dried, but I go pick it up myself....actually, I drop off my trailer at the yard, and I get a call when it is ready for me to pick up (less handling for me), then I bring it home and stack it....and if it needs to be split, I split it. So as I have gotten older, I have both some minor health problems that affected my stamina, and my back cannot handle all the heavier lifting. So I have become more and more dependent on folks in the firewood business. I do not mind that because my time on earth is getting shorter and shorter, so I do not have to spend so much time gathering and have more time for my leisure.

I'm a consumer, we only have one wood burner. Seven years ago when we moved here we had a van load of seasoned rounds delivered and then I won 60 old pallets for free which I cut up to build firewood racks in the cellar, the offcuts became firewood. In the last seven years we have been given used pallets and wood from about 4 or 5 smallish trees which I've bucked up and split and my wood store in the cellar is full to overflowing. I've been very lucky in gaining trees and pallets and have given three neighbours the occasional load of cut, split and seasoned firewood.

I cut my own firewood but then I don't burn much firewood at all my fireplaces are natural gas. As for me if I cut a lot of firewood there is no way I would bag it. The sun never hits it and the air don't blow through those bags much at all. That is why that firewood had mold on it and I am sure that wood is far from being any drier than it was when it was put in that bag. If it was me I would stack all my firewood just like Joe does at Ohio wood burner, who I think is a very honest and a very good man.

Hey Dan! Love your channel, very entertaining and informative. I am a home owner who cuts firewood for my own personal use as I have 2 wood stoves in my house. I live in Southern Ontario so temps don't really get crazy cold during winter. I store my wood in IBC totes as this way it goes from splitter to my side door once seasoned, and with minimal handling. The down side, is here in Southern Ontario the wood guys are buying up all the IBC totes and driving prices up. A recent auction sale they were going for over $100 each and those were not food safe totes, which is totally outrageous to me. Keep up the great videos ! Cheers

I live on a state highway in an area with many rental cabins so I put up a small bundle stand. I also put out some stacked full IBC totes of good oak firewood, and both the bundles and totes have sold OK. I have 20 acres of woods and so far the trees have come down faster in the wind and ice than I process them. I do not use much of the wood except when the power was out for several days. I bought some of the bags and have not unloaded them yet. One thing to note though is I have an open pile I split two years ago, and as I am getting down into it I have some of the mold problems. I am in SE Ohio, but it has been a pretty damp and wet couple of years. So it may be more than just the bags being the problem for mold and mushroom growth.

I buy firewood in bags like that. I pick up the bags in a trailer which is the only way I can move them around and empty them where and when I want to at home. The firewood producer fully seasons his logs before splitting directly from his processor into the bags and his bags are stored under cover in a massive carport arraignment until sale. Clever on his part because he never touches the wood by hand. Most of his logs are seasoned where the trees grew and he only brings them into his woodyard as he processes. I think most consumers appreciate all the scrap pieces because we use them as kindling. At least I do. Individual sticks would probably range in size between 10 to 16" and I doubt anyone cares because you're buying by volume which must be about a cubic metre. The only stuff I can buy or know of locally is iron bark gum which is about half as heavy again as your oak so it's not that easy to move it around. I watch a few US firewood channels and from my observations most of what firewood producers stress over consumers don't care about. Basically if the bag is full and it's dry and burns then I'm over it. ps. There are no scrap bins or cookie piles in Australian woodyards. (they do separate out any bark though). edit. The bags I get can be opened from the bottom because they are only laced up so if you delivered yourself and had some way of picking the full bags up then you could easily empty them and take your bag with you to use again.

Firewood consumer and producer. Never have I ever purchased firewood outside of just seeing what the competition was selling. We use bundles, not bags…or any kind. You’d have to deliver the bag in a dump trailer or something. I don’t think you could man handle a full bag out of a truck bed. Maybe you could? Not sure what a full bag would weigh. I’ve had customers want an IBC tote delivered but they have no way to unload it from the truck. Logistics with the bags, I would think, would be problematic too. I like your thinking though.

I use my tractor loader bucket. With a tooth bar to scoop a bucket at a time into it. And then take it and stack from the bucket. Way less bending up and down. So, I like my wood dumped in a pile when delivered. I buy probably 75% of the wood I use. I use 1 1/2 to 2 cords per year.

Regardless of the result, you made a critical error in assuming these bags would be dropped of infront of your house. They get moved with a palett jack kinda dolly right into your garage or backyard if it is paved. Watching you unloading I realized: here in europe, where bags are used more (still a rather small percentage in comparison) the pieces of wood are MUCH smaller. The length is 10 or 14 inches usually (there is bigger, but those are most common) and the splits are more like 4 inches, much more like your bundle firewood. When you account for all that, that might be why your results aren't so great compared to the big producers around here. I know a company that literally only uses those kind of bags (theirs have actual mesh on 2 sides tho). IBC totes are still the best, and used widely here, too.

See my comment above. There are 2 links to a battery operated pallet jack unloader devise that handles the unloading job!

@@Deutschehordenelite Europe seems to be "way ahead" of the US when it comes to the firewood business. I've seen videos of their wood delivery with IBC totes. Just amazing! I've tried to introduce this concept to the popular RU-vidrs in the US, but established wood guys cant "change horses in the middle of the stream". The Innolift device is expensive ($8k - $10k). There is a required starting investment to get a bunch of $30 used totes! But, I suggested an initial "one time" customer fee that would cover that investment...for "elite customers" who don't want to bother with piling firewood with all the mess. When the customer calls for a refill, you would need another ($30) full tote "standing by". But once your inventory starts rolling/churning, you'd have enough empty totes standing by to refill without buying any more. The beauty of the totes, is once you hand fill them (or loose fill them with a conveyor) you never touch the wood again! If one has a wood processor with a conveyor, you never touch the wood even once! The US guys don't "get it". They have "a thing" for hand piling firewood, and not having a bunch of totes cluttering up their wood yard. They likely don't want to spend time unloading empty returned totes from a trailer. But, ones tractor (with forklifts) handles this chore. A nice 30 foot flatbed "deck over" trailer would be the best for hauling the totes, since it could be unloaded/loaded from 3 sides of the trailer. New wood businesses, who study the "whole picture" before investing in equipment, are the ones who would likely go with IBC totes. Also, Europe seems to have the best efficient wood furnaces/stoves. Cheers! PS: I have modified the link below, to trick the spam detectors. Just convert the 3 question marks below to "forward slashes", and the single $ sign to a period, and then maybe you can click on it to see the video: ??youtu$be?JnDIRLLmPPo

@@garylaszewski7380 Yeah I think due to the high competition here that people are forced to optimise the process or be pushed out of the market. There are differences obviously still, but the quality is at the upper end, compared to what I see on some channels. Like you would never see a load with a bunch of debris or never call them again - because you have the options- Thanks for your comment, gonna watch the video now!

As for the bags....I do not like them, and here is why....I like to see what I am buying and if I got a bag will that amount of moldy wood, I would let the seller know that I was not pleased....maybe I am picky, but it is MY money I am spending! HA HA
