Delivering 6 bush cords to my customers

I charge $400 CDN in the city for the perfectly straight firewood logs, consistent length (12, 14, 16 or 18 inch) to people with fireplaces.  When I send the 40 yard bin with 6 bush cords, it is either the odds and ends/ cut-offs, crotches for people with wood boilers or furnaces, or it is the semi-straight16 inch logs for people with wood stoves (denser wood for people who need it for heat). The wood is wet and the customer gets the wood at discount and they let it sit for a year to dry. They get it at about 200 per bush cord and they pay for the roll-off truck to deliver as well. Not a money maker for me, but its a good way to get rid of my undesirable pieces

both wet and dry wood would be cheaper in Canada because of the abundance here versus more limited supply in the UK and being on an island. I easily get more than enough wood IN the city of Toronto. The vast forests of the province of Ontario alone is enormous supply even despite heavy wood usage

No I get wood for free from tree cutters in the city, mostly from houses and a few business properties here or there or I go to a couple tree cutter lots wjere they bring the wood back and I can pick through. Its expensive to live in this city, luckily I have cheap space for home and business, firewood has lots of operational costs and equipment. This is my harder work, I recycle scrap metals too, much easier money
