View attachment 232173 View attachment 232174 This what he delivered today. 1 more truck loads for 1 cord. I have them stacked in 3 rows but it's definitely not 4' high

Looks like you might have half a cord now.

Nope, that doesn't get you to a full cord.

I ordered 1 cord and paid for it

It would be a pretty simple exercise to measure your stack of wood and see how many cubic feet are in it. A cord is 128 of them.

The texted me after he delivered it said it's suppose to be in 2 rows not 3 lime I have it but I don't think that will give me a cord. The third row isn't enough wood to give me what I need.

I will do that when I get home

Three 16" rows = 4'.

I like your perseverance.

I just want what I paid for. He delivered 2 truck loads that were flush to the truck bed. I am no expert but I don't think that equals a cord of wood

We all want you to get what you paid for. I just think most people would have given up by now. I wouldn't have, and you have not. I like it.

Truckloads and numbers of rows are irrelevant. It is a simple measuring and math exercise. This guy is the shadiest sounding wood selling guy I've heard of for quite a while, I think.

Are we still talking about the stove not heating the whole house?

Sometimes.

Nice picture. Pictures are always good!

I would threaten reporting to the dept of weights and measures if he doesnt fill your rack up. Theres too many if these half ass wood guys out there, doesnt sound reputable to me.

 

[deborita3]

Three 16" rows to measure. Worry about drying later. If you have 2 skids, and can manage to get the wood stacked 4' high, you have your cord.

Think about it like it's a shoe box, measured 4' high, 4' wide, 8' long.

The reason I asked about the rows

Are we only suppose to talk about woodstoves? If that's the rules I won't post about the wood.

The living room and dining room is heating good. It gets to about 78. Bedrooms are still a little cold but I don't spend much time there.

No you can talk about your wood woes here. Its your thread and its pertinent to the problem. They are just joking around.

Ok. Just want to make sure I'm following the rules.

That's what I am going to do bit wanted to make sure what I have so far isn't a cord before contacting him or the Dept of weights and measures if he doesn't make things right. That was the reason for all the questions about what a cord is. I have never dealt with firewood before but after reading the posts here and doing research online I know now what the measurements are and how to stack the wood.

Get this for the bed. Last year my master bedroom was 51F. I would turn this on about 30 mins before bed on setting 5 and then once I got in was like climbing into your clothes drier full of warm clothes. You can then just set to to 1 and be super comfy all night. Best nights of sleep were when it was cold in the room with a warm bed. And costs pennies to heat / night.

We have a comforter and 2 fleece blankets. LoL
The only thing I miss about our condo is the heat. It was included and it was always warm.

Did you call Cord King firewood? What did they have to offer?

They're sold out of seasoned wood

Any kiln dried left?
