  We use Pete's Firewood and the benefits of having seasoned, uniformly cut pieces is something you do not find at the roadside firewood dealer. The prices are above what I would say is average, but this quality of product and service is well above most, if not all, of the Rio Grande Valley's choices in firewood dealers, so I gladly pay the going rate per cord.

  A cord of firewood should measure 128 cubic feet and generally has the dimensions of 4’ x 4’ x 8’ when stacked. What Pete’s described over the phone as a 1/4 cord or “rack” and available for pick-up measured 4’ x 1.5’ x 3’ in person. This is just 18 cubic feet, far less than the 32 cubic feet that an actual 1/4 of a cord of firewood should measure. The “rack” unit of sale offered at Peet’s is also not in agreement with NM Law (see below). Furthermore, what was initially represented over the phone as 1/4 of a cord (32 cubic feet) was found to far less in person When questioned about the discrepancy the office and yard staff just said that was the price and offered little in the way of an explanation. When I asked what the price of a full cord sold for I was give a price that included delivery. Using this price, I quickly calculated that their “rack” quantity of fuelwood was just about 2x’s more than their full cord pricing! I would not recommend purchasing fuelwood from Pete’s as they don’t adhere to accepted units of measure and implement a sliding price scale that is disadvantageous customers. Per NM regulations- New Mexico State Law, Chapter 57-17-1 through 19, NMSA, 1978 Compilation. The associated regulation (NMAC 21.16.4.9.K) states, “Fuelwood: Shall be advertised, offered for sale, and sold only by the cord or fractional part of a cord, except it may be sold by weight if the seller declares the price per unit of weight and the equivalent price per cord. The provisions of this method of sale shall not apply to fuelwood sold in packaged form in bundles of less than one hundred (100) pounds.” Any unspecified quantity or amount of firewood, advertised or sold, is prohibited. For example, one cannot place an ad in the paper or advertise selling a “truckload” of wood (Figure 2). When selling more than 100 lb of firewood, the vendor must provide the cord equivalent, such as 1/4 or 1/2 cord or other fractions of a cord. If a vendor chooses to sell firewood by weight, they must provide the total amount of wood in pounds, price per pound, and the equivalent price per cord.
