I have a 12' foot dump trailer with 22" walls and 6' wide = 132 CuFt,.... 1 cord = 128 CuFt. Loosely stacked its a bit over half a cord This is a cord of wood on my trailer. I sell a cord @$425 delivered (dump and run). If I were a patient man I could park on the side of the freeway near...

The "Shark Gills" were added awhile ago in hopes to alleviate the gasses being directed at the break handle, they helped but not enough.
