I live in the Philippines which is tropical country and no one uses wood here to heat anything else but food. But I do live 2h away from city with population of 2mln and I hope it will be my profit right there. I have already done it in Northern Europe. But since I'm here now.. Lets keep money rolling.

Good video and information. Only just found this but I am going to start selling camp firewood this year and see how it goes. I can get 2 to 3x the money for the same firewood and the same work as I will with home heating firewood. I am also thinking that presentation is everything. I look around literally everywhere I go and most firewood bundles are sloppy and poorly presented. What do you think about putting together a nice display rack for retail businesses instead of having it tossed on the ground? I am considering making racks cause I have my own sawmill too.

Just watched your video and have been thinking of doing bundled firewood and I think this spring in 2022 I will give it a go just small at 1st I do process about 50 tri axle loads of firewood per year its nice money for part time work bundles would make more profit now that I have retired from my job of 43 years. I do run a dyna SC-16 that I have had for the last 10 years was looking for processor when I ran across the dyna it was a repossession with 350 hours mads offer of 22000 thousand to the bank and they took it. It was 6 months old and new was 50000 thousand that was good luck for me it has been a back saver

You can add a 'handle' to your bundle. Simply go one more wrap but bunch up the wrap to the middle at the top and let to go around the bundle until it reaches the 'handle.' Then you can put two pieces of packaging tape on each side of the handle to hold the loose end of the wrap. I think sticker is easier and better label... don't need to be that big. Just some thoughts.

Retailers (over here) have at least a 30% - 35% margin, so (over here, Again) they earn more per bundle than Joe, who does all the work… OK, they have the financing and inventory risk + overhead costs but with close to 0% intrest rates for the time being, a bundle sold on a road side stand delivers more per bundle when priced somewhat below what the retailers do ask for.

Hi Joe! We are new to the bundled firewood game. A few retailers I’ve contacted are reluctant because they would most likely keep it outside and they are not a 24 hour business and are worried about theft. Are you mostly in 24 hr businesses?
@TheDriftlessHomestead
@TheDriftlessHomestead 3 жыл бұрын
One thing to consider... I have a stand at my house and still loose a couple. Wal-Mart has a system where the pay as the customer buys. Eliminating their labor and the supplier labor of checking in the product. So maybe if you accept the risk of your low cost product being stolen it will still pay off?
@ohiowoodburner
@ohiowoodburner 3 жыл бұрын
All my accounts keep the wood inside. The industry term used for losses to theft etc is "Shrink." If the area is prone to high shrink maybe that location wouldn't be a good fit bc they would want to sell them cheaper and therefore want to pay you less per unit? I was working on a deal for a gas station chain that wanted me to come up with a lockable bin but for that extra work and given the $$ he was wanting to pay me per bundle it wasn't worth my time. I went and found higher end retailers.

If you want to approach them ask them if they are happy with their current provider. I wouldn't expect to underbid them bc there prob isn't much of a markup to begin with. Notice if they complain that the guy is too unresponsive, won't answer his phone, etc. Win them over with service

Hi Joe, as usual great information. In speaking with a supplier of firewood bags, the cost of bags seems pretty significant in the total cost of the product vs. the cost of shrink wrap. Less upfront cost, but higher ongoing costs for using bags. The same supplier gave some advice it's best to try and sell direct, make more money that way. He said that if a bag of firewood sells at a store for $7.50 you'll get about $4.50 to $5.00 a bag. How has your experience been with direct sales? Higher profit, maybe lower volume? Can you give your thoughts on website design, cost, and ongoing maintenance and any ongoing monthly fees? Thanks for all your positive advice, it's very helpful to a budding firewood bundling entrepreneur - Will

I do both. I don't really chase that market but I do deliver bundles directly to customers and I shoot for $10 a bundle.

I had thought of smaller labels but I just like the way these look. I don't do big volume with them so I am comfortable with how the are now. I also don't do handles but think they look very nice. I just didn't want that extra step in the manufacturing process. Joe

Do you season your smoking wood? When I buy a bag of chips, it says to soak for 8 hours. It would seem that you might not need to if you JIT the orders.

All my wood is seasoned. I think there are different opinions and techniques. Still, for me, the best thing I can do is provide seasoned wood.

I know you have a background in retail. How do you figure out what a retailer is paying their suppliers for the bundles. For example I see at the gas station they are selling bundled firewood at $7.49 each what are they actually paying the suppliers for that bundle? Thanks Joe for all your information.

Hi Dana... from my experience the retailers shoot for a 40% markup. I use a free app that has a mark up calculator on it. I find what a local store sells it for and do my calculation. that becomes my target price for that particular account.

That bundle looks way better than any in my area, all the bundles here look like garbage, wrapped loosely, falling apart, very inconsistent sizes and alot of twisted limb pieces. No tags either. Your making me think I could take over this area with some good looking bundles 🤔
