T & D Thompson — Local services in Salt Creek Township

Have you every wondered what it would be like to start a fire in a monsoon using green wood? Buy some wood from T&D Thompson and find out.

This wood couldn't be any wetter. 90% of the wood still has the bark on it. About 1 out of 300 pieces is close to seasoned. Moisture content is close to 50% across the dozens of pieces I tested. They sell by the pound rather than the cord because they'd have to give you five times the wood.

The wood is enormous with many chunks weighing over 35 lbs which is find if you have a very large wood stove. Many would stoves couldn't fit many of the pieces unless they were split two or even three times. This could be a positive or a negative depending on your wood stove.

Everyone I interacted with was friendly. Before ordering, I called to ask about the moisture content.

I'm not saying you shouldn't buy from them, but if you need seasoned firewood for your home you should...

Great place to buy lumber for that special project. They have a ton of experience and can cut you a specific sized board. They cut me a "2x16"x8' long piece of Maple. They also offer kiln dried wood if you need that. Very friendly and helpful people. Update: I continue to buy here and I use their wood to create artwork. Travis is a good guy to deal with who knows his stuff and is very honest as well. Can't say enough good things about T&D. Glad they are...
