Firewood Department

About Firewood Department

The Firewood Department sells firewood from its yard at 1479 Glenwood Dr in Gardnerville, Nevada. It serves customers in Genoa, Minden, Gardnerville, Stateline, Topaz Lake, Coleville, Walker, Bridgeport, and Markleeville. Buyers can also pick up wood at the yard if they call ahead. Its species are almond, cherry, apricot, plum, eucalyptus, mixed hardwood, pine, red or live oak, and cottonwood. Most of the hardwood comes from the "retirement of mature fruit and nut trees," and the pine comes from hazardous fuel reduction projects in the Sierra. The wood is cut into 15 to 16 inch lengths. Hardwood is kept 12 to 18 months before it is sold and usually tests at 8 to 12 percent moisture, while pine usually tests at 10 to 15 percent. A moisture tester goes out on every delivery. Delivery usually takes 2 to 5 days. Half cord pallets are moved by a Hummerbee low impact forklift, so the wood does not have to be restacked. The pallets are 40 by 48 inches and stand 56 to 58 inches high, so the space needed is about 4 and a half feet wide by 6 and a half feet high. For large commercial quantities, call for pricing and delivery details. It suits a homeowner in Minden or Gardnerville who heats with wood or cooks over it and wants a half cord delivered on a pallet, not a landowner looking to sell standing timber.
