Anybody know a place that has cheap prices on cords of firewood? My house has a wood burning fireplace, and i would like to use it to offset the gas. ---

Yea, i have never had a need for firewood outside of camping… I would need ~2 cords delivered to lancaster, but most of the good deals come from private sales. So its usually X knows a guy who delivers firewood for XXX per cord ---

Go for a nice “leaf ride” in the south towns and you will pass dozens of places that sell firewood. I am not sure how far they will deliver but if you can get a truck… ---

there is a uhaul rental place right at the 219 and the road where people sell wodd is … so you could still take that “drive” and if you found a good deal make a rental its about 130ish for a one way from there to where your going ---

PJ’s Auto 682-1736 (~$80 delivered +fuel) - This guy is great. He cuts everything exactly at 16" with no stragglers, perfectly seasoned and stored, and no shitty woods. Well worth the cost if you are running a high eff unit and want real burn times. Al’s Tree Service 692-7041 ($70 delivered + fuel) - Good people with a nice mix. However, I think they stopped delivering beyond their area (Ton & Amherst). That’s who we went through this year. Although we didn’t pay nearly that much. **Get your wood earlier next year people and keep the cost down.** ---

Just check the classifieds. Last fall I had a guy from near Batavia deliver 2 cords of ash for $180. I think it was only seasoned one year, but ash still burns well even if it’s not dry. I’ve still got the guy’s card at home. I’ll look for it tonight. ---

you need to buy earlier in the season. take a ride in the southtowns & suburbs and you’ll find signs in lawns everywhere. This is “generally” cheaper then what you find ni the papers [Next page](https://forums.speedlife.net/t/where-to-buy-firewood/56000.md?page=2)
