When I dump into my dump trailer, I go in from the back with the doors open. Tip the tote on its face, then lift it off the wood. Then the next tote, I can push the previous wood forward. Repeat as necessary. Makes for easier transfer into the trailer.
Dumping out of those IBC’s are a pain. If this was a regular thing I would make the front opening larger and remove the crossbar and reinstall it halfway back and on top. It keeps the strength with less impediments.
I'm gonna go pretend to work today. If I get by with it, I'll be happy, and I'll let you know. It's always nice to have smart people around you. No matter what, it was worth a try for the less touching! Way to go Bert. And Chris, of course.
Bert had a good idea of dumping on the concrete. Maybe better yet would be to buy the ibc totes from Adam, put the full totes in the trailer, haul home and leave the wood in the totes. Easy peezee
I was at a friend's house yesterday cutting oak, and he asked if we could take down a tree. I looked at it, and it was cherry. A beautiful tree. I tried to talk him out of it, but he wanted it down. Score for me. Cherry is my favorite. It's too bad for the beautiful tree. If I didn't get it, someone else would have, so it's stacked in my yard now. Cherry is awesome
I'm jealous of all that cherry.Adam seems like a great guy.glad you can help him out,and him you.win,win for both.and Burt thinks like me,smarter,not harder🍻
@@InTheWoodyard you and I are both old enough to be wise enough to entertain better ideas.ill be 61 on the 19th.about your age.im always looking for a better way.a closed mind is a weak mind🍻
Nice video Chris. I’ve said it before, but I’m so impressed with Adam’s equipment, woodshed and firewood quality. I can understand how he became your new best friend. Hope you get some frozen ground soon. GNI
You can probably sell it before you needed to move it from the concrete. Maybe since its in those totes you could just load the whole totes in and bring empty totes to trade off when you pick up. You guys have all those totes.
U should have bought his IBC totes that have wood in it and kept them loaded up till u sell that wood. Then u would have extra totes at the farm to fill and load. I thought that last video but waited to see if u mentioned it or not.
Chris...Good to have "friends" watching your channel. I always loved burning cherry in our insert. Was curious if you ever saw what Adam had for splitting all that wood?
Hey Chris, been watching the channel for a long time. Love it! If the fella with the cherry is moving, why wouldn’t you just take the wood AND the crates? Boy, that would be a home run if you didn’t have to touch it at all!
Good morning Chris!!😀😀 I bet the woodyard is really muddy right now. That's the only bad thing about clay. I'm,so lucky over here. I can drive anywhere at my place and not find any mud. I've said it before that it's too bad that my place is so far over here or it would make a great place for working in the spring. I think you might be right about spring lasting 3 months. Take care my friend!!😀😀💚💚 Logger Al
I know this sounds crazy, but if Adam is moving out of state, I'm assuming he is not taking his totes with him, but even if he is, why aren't you guys just loading the totes onto the trailer and returning the empty ones on your next trip??? You could haul more wood that way, speed up everything, and and dump them into your cherry bin or where ever In the Woodyard. Better yet, just leave the wood in the totes and replace them with your own empty totes.
Chris knows exactly the amount he is buying when we have it tossed in. Otherwise loading up the totes would have been quicker. But then you wouldn’t have seen my painful attempt to emptying into his trailer.
I know you have said what truck you use and hauling your trailers can you tell me again I need to replace my truck but you have to mortgage your house to get one I don't want a 4 door but a 8 foot bed if I got a full size , but yours seems to have no problem thats why I thought about a smaller truck I just can't see 60.000.00 on up to haul wood, I got a call today from a local dealership that said they had just what I needed, reduced price to 74,998.00 I didn't take the savings I could never justify paying that much, I do use it for other things for myself but that is ridiculous. Thanks and take care, by the way I got a beaver hat back in 2022 it better be cold out to wear it but it's definitely warm, thank you.
Maybe you could by the cherry wood with the totes included??? I predict the conclrete slab idea to not pan-out perfectly since you do not have a back stop (wall, etc. to push against and it may take a little longer than chuck'n, but less getting you truck in the mud.
I have 221,000 on my Toyota, it still runs like the day I paid cash for it in Texas. Now that I've moved back to the Banana Belt (Northeast Florida) in the country, I wish that Toyota would make a 3/4 ton model. I would buy it today.
your track have way more than enough power to handle additional wood on board way... there wouldnt be any problem with another trailer like this one behind..... its like "I would not cut this branche because I care about my chansow " :D
I was late today, had a dental appointment and had some chores to do. I have been able to cut wood every day in the last week.Just trying to get back in shape after last year. Found an uprooted cherry about 10" and straight. Made a nice load. Also cut several loads of small dead locust. The cherry you are getting was stacked so pretty, it was almost too pretty to move. Nice score on beautiful wood. Are you required by law to blank out any names or brands on the totes. I just noticed that.
If it's too muddy to get the truck to the wood bins, you might want to take the tractor to the bins, hand fill the bucket and bring it to the trailer that's on the cement and dump it in. A little extra work but then you won't chance swamping the truck and trailer.
Chris the frost has gone out of my driveway, after tomorrows rain and the temperatures drop back closer to normal maybe I can get something done outside. And not just tear everything up. Keep on cutting
Concrete slab, jersey barrier bins and a skid steer. Wood will be clean and you won't have to handle it nearly as much. Go to a landscape place and you'll see what I mean by looking at the mulch bins and rock bins. Your treating the wood you have the same way. You aren't stacking or covering it so why not just bin it on concrete incased with jersey barriers. Cost? Your back will thankyou and it looks like you have at least some concrete slab to do alittle. Your county highway department may have some old barriers lying around they might part with for next to nothing.
Just wondering if you could get a full cord in the baby dumper if it was stacked in there? Can't wait until things freeze back up or dry out to see the processor run.
So, to save time, why don't you just buy his baskets and slide two of them into the trailer? Or, slide in two baskets and then return them when you come to pick up another load?
Sure if someone had called and ordered it at exactly the time I was hauling it and bought exactly the amount I was hauling BUT.... then I would be out ....again.
@@InTheWoodyard it's an Ole saying back in the day (when you had to manually twist the hub locks on the front axle for four wheel drive) you're buddies about to go off the gravel road into questionable terrain lock in the front wheel hubs for 4 wheel drive..before you get there and need 4wheel drive and travel to get out of the cab in the slop an get your boots 👢 muddy..you're going off pavement to the wood bins you'd better lock in those hubs.😉
@@InTheWoodyard I know the woods but was on his property or did he get it from someone else that’s a lot of cherry like you said it’s not a lot together like oak.
When I dump into my dump trailer, I go in from the back with the doors open. Tip the tote on its face, then lift it off the wood. Then the next tote, I can push the previous wood forward. Repeat as necessary. Makes for easier transfer into the trailer.
yup, I have seen that done before.
Great looking cherry!! Bert goes to work so he can rest from working in the woodyard!! Stay Hydrated and Have a Safe Day
Dont give away all my secrets😂
Yup, most people rest at work so they can play hard when not working!
yup!
Awesome vid today Chris! 🔥💯👍. Enjoyed the visit to pick up more choice chunks of cherry for the chariet! See you soon! Andrew from NB :)
Awesome thank you!
Good morning, sir. may God bless you and your family, and I hope everyone has a beautiful day
Good morning!
That’s an awesome barn at Adam’s, looks to be in good shape !
Great old dairy barn perfect for my tractor. Haha
yup.
Excellent! Thanks
Thank you!
Dumping out of those IBC’s are a pain. If this was a regular thing I would make the front opening larger and remove the crossbar and reinstall it halfway back and on top. It keeps the strength with less impediments.
Every piece that is removed weakens the tote more.
My garlic and tulips are about 4" out of the ground already winter on the Westcoast 😅
Nice!
Definitely different the grounds not even frozen here. I hate the mud. I rather stay frozen till spring. Keep up the good work.
Yup, since then it thawed out here too! MUD!
I just watched the movie Fury again. “Best job I ever had”!
Awesome movie...yup best job I ever had!!
Thanks Chris i bet she was happy with that face cord.lol

If Adam is downsizing bring that Kubota tractor home too. I like the barn cats on the second floor landing watching you tarp the trailer.

Hello!
Our county posted roads yesterday, I can't remember this happening in the first week of February before.
Yup, here too!

Chris has a Toyota Tundra. They are a great truck I had one but ended up selling it to get a bigger truck for my needs.
Some day when I grow up I want a big truck too.
My advice is get a 6-10 year old truck that is in good condition for firewood. A new truck from anyone is stupid expensive now!
Maybe you could by the cherry wood with the totes included??? I predict the conclrete slab idea to not pan-out perfectly since you do not have a back stop (wall, etc. to push against and it may take a little longer than chuck'n, but less getting you truck in the mud.
I don’t have anymore cherry totes but we should have thought of that.
You will see the tractor(s) working on that!
no biggie.

YES!!!! Same here a 3/4 ton TOYOTA would be awesome!! Fish on!
Tell Adam to close his cab door every time. Can't tell you how many Kubota doors fly off the shelfs.😢
I remember that. I have broken the door and still haven’t learned from my mistakes
Yup, they are not free!
Ouch!
your track have way more than enough power to handle additional wood on board
way... there wouldnt be any problem with another trailer like this one behind.....
its like "I would not cut this branche because I care about my chansow " :D
What?
👍👍👍
Thanks!!
Chris I load in front cut on totes and unload from side. Nice cherry
Yup, good stuff!
Chris all that matters is that your customer is happy 😊 😮❤
That does matter!
Strange why the wood won’t fall out easily of the totes. Even thou to was above freezing, was the wood sorta froze in.
Have a great day. 👋👋
It was PACKED in TIGHT not frozen in.

10sq ft or appx 31.5% extra wood, the Misses is going to start asking what happened to the profit margins. 😉😂🤪

Yes I could...it would be tight!
i had a customer i just refunded because of rain i told them give it a few day they called 2 days later threating to sue me for saleing them wet wood
There you go again hogging all that cherry!👍👍
Yup, 2 more loads to go!
Why not just buy the ibcs too and keep it till you need to sell it and tip it then?
I do not think he wanted to sell them.
So, to save time, why don't you just buy his baskets and slide two of them into the trailer? Or, slide in two baskets and then return them when you come to pick up another load?
It’s easier for Chris to know how much wood he is buying. Since he loads his trailer 1000s of times.
I did not know if he wanted to sell them and for the known volume in my trailer loose I know how much fits loose. So...
Yup!
Can this guy learn to dump a tote of firewood. Haha
They are a pain to dump unless you sacrifice the rigidity of the tote.
I’m sure Bert can give me some lessons.
I worry too much about hitting Chris’s trailer.
@adamlink7779 we have hit it hard multiple times. Cant be any worse than what we broke the other day.
