Don: I'm away from this a few years now. however I expect it's very close to $160. per cord ready for the stove. In the 1980s, I used to pile up 8' long wood at roadside in the bush for $45. per cord. Customers would come there with their own truck, saws, splitters, labor, etc. The scale was split in their truck on the basis of 128 cubic foot cords. When I trucked it to the city, scale was done on cords of 8' wood on truck, at around $50. per cord, but then you have the differential between 8' scale and split fire wood. An old timer near me back in the 80s always claimed if you scaled a pile of 8' wood, bucking it into 16" lengths you loose 18% and when you split it you gain back 9%. Not sure I'm exact on those figures, but close. The old timer was the dad of the sawmill operator I sold my saw logs to. I guess the old man had nothing better to do than repile wood. Probably as productive as some of what today's older generation do.
