Dumped where you point
The load is dumped at the spot you choose. Stacking isn't included, but we may be able to stack for an additional fee depending on where it needs to go — just ask when you order.
Black Forest conditions that affect the job

- Dense ponderosa and doghair stands that carry fire from the ground straight into the crowns.
- Heavy ips and mountain pine beetle kill leaving standing dead pine across whole acreages.
- Post-2013 fire awareness — insurers and neighbors both expect documented defensible space.
- Large lots where hauling and chipping the slash is most of the job, not the cutting.
What affects the price: Wood category — pine, mixed, regional hardwood, fine hardwood, or oak; Number of cords ordered; Delivery distance — starts at $25 inside Colorado Springs city limits, more outside them; Optional stacking, priced by where the wood needs to be stacked.
