I sell firewood bags up here in Maine in a very popular tourist / camping destination in a beach town, and when I switched from wrapping bundles to firewood bags (the exact ones you have in this video), my sales dramatically increased. I think people driving by saw the bags and saw quality, especially for $5. Everyone around here uses plastic wrap and I don't think the campers like it. I'd rather lose a little bit of money per bundle for a much higher quality product! They are easier to grab, they look way better than plastic wrap, and sometimes my customers return the bags for re-use! Just to give you an idea of the volume I am dealing with, I sold 350 bags of firewood from my road side stand in one weekend last 4th of July, using my palax packer 35 I can bundle a full bag in about 20 seconds. I am a very busy guy in the summer lol. Thanks for all your videos, big fan here from Maine!

Whoever makes the bundles sold at the convenience store near me, uses some sort of HEAVY duty shrink wrap (like the kind you use as a ground sheet under your tent!)- open-ish at either end, and with a handle stapled to a couple of smaller slivers. Kinda a pain to remove the staples from the piece of wood, but it sure makes for a strong handle! As a wood grill guy, I chose that particular bundle BECAUSE it had several smaller pieces in it. Don't want to wait forever for the fire to burn down so I can cook- I'm hungry now! lol. Normally I don't buy them, but my stock of dry ready to burn wood was very low. BTW, I spent the weekend woodhounding my usual spot. Cha-Ching!! Jackpot!! They've been doing some serious trimming and removal of overgrown trees in the process of replacing a bunch of old houses with new ones. This time, there were PILES of 5-6' logs of 4-6" diameter or so. Filled my pickup RIGHT up! There were larger ones aplenty, but I still have to buck by hand- that's about as big a log as I want to hand saw into chunks. Unsure of species- the bark is familiar, but not like the hard maples, oaks, Ash's, cottonwoods, Locusts etc I mainly see. Basswood maybe? White oak? soft maple? who knows. Too bad it's green. Free is free, though!

Sounds like a heck of a score on the free wood...nice job Wood Hound. As far as bags I've thought about bagging up my smaller chunks to see how they'd sell & if anyone would be interested in them, might still do it cuz I end up with plenty of small chunks. 👍 😀 🍻

Great video and production quality. The timed burn was great. So, here's my spin on the bundler. If you are having success with selling bags at your stand and enjoy making the bundles, then don't change a thing. However I think you could increase productivity by adding more garbage cans to your process. Put bags on 4 cans at a time and fill all of them at once. A bundler is for selling bundles to a captive audience, a lodge, convenient store, campground, whatever they're gonna buy it regardless. I've seen them sold around here with with a red flyer in them and some advertising home delivery.

Like the video. My parents have a seasonal campsite at a campground and when I have a pile of wood that I’m not sure if it’s dry or not I I will bring it to them and tell them to burn it and let me know how it burns. I don’t get a lot of time to burn my own wood so that’s the next best thing for me. I don’t mess with bundles as I sell campfire wood by the pickup load or by the cord. Here we have mostly soft wood so a dozen pieces of Douglas fir will last 45 mins or so, birch or maple lasts longer. Our bundled wood you can buy from a gas station is like $7-$10 a bundle depending where you go. I’ve sold and delivered 3 pickup loads in the last 3 days. I’m out of dryish wood and need to get more today because I have orders to fill.
@Back40Firewood3 жыл бұрын
Having your parents to test is a good way to find out for sure. I've seen campgrounds that have 'regulars' or people who are there a lot get truckloads delivered in. Around here most people are having fires in their backyards but don't have the space to store or keep much wood on hand.

The campground that my parents have a “seasonal” camp spot in used to not let any outside wood come into the campground due to the bugs but last year they told me I can sell directly to whoever has a seasonal camp spot in that campground.

Have you experienced this, and have you found the bags are resilient, or do they degrade over time?

I would say " stick with what is working for you" .... After seeing those pretty sacks, all the plastic bundles look sorta ghetto !!!!!!!

I would fill a bunch of bags with firewood and set them aside. Then take my gloves off and tie them all up. It seems a lot of time is spent taking gloves on and off.

That bag would be at least $8 at stores, probably closer to $10.

Most people get 6-7 dollars a bag or 3- $15.00.

HAY ( D ) NOT BAD... NOW IF WE CAN GET OTHER BAG SELLING WOOD HOUNDS TO FOLLOW SUIT... WE CAN GUESSTIMATE AN AVERAGE ON HOW LONG A BAG LASTS ACROSS THE WOOD HOUND MAP!!! THEN MABY CHANGING THE FORMAT WON'T BE SUCH A SHOCK TO THE CONSUMER... FOR EXAMPLE, IF THE BUNDEL AVERAGE IS 1 HOUR AND SAY 40 MIN. YOU TOSS ANOTHER TWO PIECE'S IN THE BUNDLE WHICH NOW IS A WRAP AND CALL IT NEW AND IMPROVED, CHARGE THE SAME $ 5.00 THEN GO FROM 20- TO 25 ON THE LOOSE AFTER A WHILE... OR JUST DO SOME BAG'S AND SOME BUNDLE'S, THEN ON A SIGN ASK WHAT THE FOLK'S LIKE BEST... LEAVE A PENCIL AND SOME POST IT'S SO THEY CAN REPLY WITH THERE PAYMENT - YA KNOW A LITTLE R. & D.

There is one factor I didn't take into account and that's the type of wood in the bundle...lol...once I start filling those bags with Pine, Popular, & Basswood they won't be lasting for as long as that one did....maybe I'll have to do another video to compare...hahaha 👍 😀 🍻
