I cant get wood..Id like to get some opinions on this. Im in the northeast usa, I had heated with wood for 35 plus years. I burn about anything. But my dad uses wood also and this year ive noticed that its hard to find.
We have two calls into different sellers who have supplied us before. but none return the call. One we even asked them to kindly call and tell us if they were out of business. No reply.
I have asked around and it seems that most wood is now more profitable to chip for the power plants and also for the wood pellets.
As far as the pellets. I got to thinking about how many times they get handled and als how much fuel is used to transport etc .Its a good convience but...
So am I far of to think that the markets have taken away the regular firewood. Because of the cost factor?
Also we have a company who kiln dries the wood and they have grabbed a huge amount of the volume.
The traditional burner has taken a hit lately...
