Looking for a half cord


Got my last bundle in Madisonville, and am running pretty low. Obviously it isn't sold as many places on the side of the road here as it is on the northshore. Not gonna buy that much at a grocery store, so do yall know of any place around Metairie/Lakeview that sells this volume?

I don't want any wet or rotten shite either

8ft bed 1-ton truck or 5.5ft Tacoma?

A truckload has too much variance. I guess I'd just have to wing it because I can fit 3/4 cord in my bed stacked up high. That is a big difference from a crew cab little truck

check craigslist. I have a 1/2 cord delivered and stacked every year. Usually pay around $120.

My family got a truck load from the same person (I think) and it was around $120.

If you use google streetview on Seither's and then head toward Columbus St., you should be able to see the phone number to call.

Absolutely not. Dude had about 4 teeth and his little buddy had a greyed over eye. I doubt they have phones. They were just on the North side of 61 west of Laplace. I bought them out, so you might want to check back tomorrow. The wood is really good. Actually excited to burn it
