whats the going price per cord for avg standing firewood. i am in snh.

BargeMonkey

 Depends how nice it is, and how hard it is to get, and quantity.  I pay around 10-12, maybe 15 on the stump for average firewood.

What are the specs for "standing cordwood" ? 
upper diameter breast height (dbh) limit?
Or log quality limit?
Or just everything over a certain dbh?

Wondering if you get the sawlogs along with the firewood.

Firewood is paid by load, I average 6-7 cord a load. Logs are piled to the side and paid on scale, unless we buy the lot outright. As far as DBH goes, a depends on quality, I work around the good young growth for the stuff everyone else wont cut, or if it looks damaged it goes.

Drlewis we are in the same area and I am paying 15/cord in the stump.  Seems to be the going rate.  might be able to get away with 12 if its real junky stuff.

 Nys region 4 averaged about 12.00 a cord on the last couple sales. Unless its easy to get to, and easy to haul its not worth it.

So I  am guessing  the strong hardwood pulp market in Maine keeps the tree length hardwood market healthier up here.
