I am considering moving my firewood with 28 hp tractor and slip-on bucket forks(haven't bought them yet).
We stack wood on each side of the pallet with the middle open for drying. The pallets are actually three together so I dont need to make stacked wood ends. One pallet on the bottom-one on each end- screwed together with big grade stakes. They are rugged.
I hope to split the wood and stack on the pallet where the tree falls. Move the pallets to my drying area for a year, then move the pallets of dry wood to under my deck. Take inside as needed...
I figure this will save a portion of my lifespan in handling firewood.
How much will the pallet of green wood (hardwood, no oak) weigh? I am guessing around 1000-1500 lb.
The wood is 16" long and stacked on each side- not in the middle.
Thanks!
