Gets cold up there even if it is Tucson!
Sirscrapalot - Doesn't like pecans, an misses camping out up in Oracle an up on Mt. Lemmon.
Hobo...is that for small.amounts or quantity? Once toy start dping that stuff it is almost always better to do the ultra large bales....just is that chicken and the egg thing...need the space and have to rent the right baler...then have enough you can do in a reasonable amount of time to fill a tractor trailer load...I know...I am looking into it here as no one around here ecen buys any of that locally...so talking with one of the large recyclers on pricing for paper, plastics, and old clothes (for industrial rags)
Just small time . And old clothes textiles should be good money if you have the space for them...Quote:

REALLY??? We're at $150-180/green and $190-220seasoned(dry)/cut/split&delivered. I read the other day that firewood supply is down due to rainy summer. Expect price spikes.Quote:

I am in the door at two major sub divisions that have just been started and am hauling wood as fast as I can get it. My Father is set for a couple years and a couple of friends had free wood (paid with labor) this year. right now it's a free wood free-for all for the foreseeable future.
It is great that you found a paying outlet for these items hobo if i had the space and connections i would do the same.
I've heard of that. A few years ago when I was selling firewood, a guy told me he sold debarked firewood to condo owners in Boston. Just like you're saying,they were REAL picky but paid about twice what he got around here. Sticks had to be exactly uniform length. no crooks etc,etc.Quote:

Bear, I don't know how everybody does it but I season wood (meaning cut to the length you're going to burn - usually 16", 18" or 24"; split and left to dry) for two "seasons" (usually summer and fall). Burning sooner is considered "green" (too high of moisture content for efficient burning). Each species dries at a different rate but, generally, two seasons is the average. I've got some oak and maple this year that I've been drying in a covered shed for two years. As for debarking - The "wood" and the "bark" dries at different rates due to physical makeup. As it dries, the bark falls off or is easily stripped off.
You guys are talking a full cord right? Most of what we sell around here is by the face cord.
There is no legal measurement of "face cord" "truck load" or anything other than "cord" which is 128 cu ft - typically 4'x4'x8' and tightly stacked. Face cord simply means 4'x8'x whatever depth the logger chooses. That's why it's not given any legal status.
Right, its usually 16 inches around here which makes it a third of a cord. I've seen it go anywhere from 60 bucks to 125 bucks depending on the type.Quote:

Yes wood may be better now but plastic cardboard and glass sell well year round.
A lot of my non metal selling is based on seasons right now it's wood wood wood and getting it "free" is helping the cause greatly
acorns and apples do ok but it's all about the wood

i want to recycle glass bottle for cash, i live near cleveland in perry ohio
i just want to find a place that well pay me for glass bottles
does anyone know of a place close to me?
Well my cardboard place stopped buying it. There is another place but they only pay .01 a pound for it. The only reason I was saving it was the place that payed .02 a pound had a good price for alum cans and I was going there anyway. Guess it will get dropped off to the city program. I only had about 200 lbs so whats that $4. Less stuff for me to keep around here!

#1 plastic bottles down to $ .25 - $.35 a pound

And wood! My friend had a big storm by him lots of Mesquite trees down, county jail workers were cutting and stacking it up by the road. He stops and asks if he can have it, yep. Two pickup loads no problem....
Wood is going to be on par with last year, I see no need for prices to go up.
added this year. campfire wood $3 for 6-8 pieces bundled w/ kindiling, guys closer to campgrounds and in town are charging 4-5 bucks....:-o that's gotta be close to $1,000 a cord$$$$$
