okay, so this is the first time we have ever bought a «cord» of firewood but i know now that there is no other way to go! skip Lowes &HD and call Mike with Bearskin Firewood. They deliver and unload without much hassel. Mike called me back and delivered on the same day at the time he said he would… completely hassel free! we ordered ½ of a cord(4×8 stack) which is a ton of wood that should last us well over winter it was $ 140 delivery included. wood burns well and doesnt require a lot of babysitting!
