any jobsite will have pallets, and if not, plenty of wood cuts in the dumpster to fuel your fire. i know people that get their entire winter's fuel source from the dumpsters.

Most of the wood from job sites is pressure treated and releases toxic gasses when burned. :nono1:

most is a pretty expansive term. yes, i will add the disclamer: skunkape, do not take/burn the PT wood(which you will find heavy and quite dense), take the untreated pine, of which there is plenty and quite distinquishable...

don't burn any railroad ties or telephone poles that you may find in dumpsters either.

and the red plastic containers may have contained gasoline at one time, be careful.

Skunkape,

I have two wooden pallets left over from some sod that was delivered to my house. I was just about to get rid of them. You are more than welcome to incinerate 'em.

I know you're not burning these on the beach but I thought I would make a note - in addition to the info about pressure treated I've seen people burn pallets and other construction lumber on the beach. This will leave a lot of nails behind so please burn natural stuff only.

I guarantee you that they will quickly be removed, but currently, there are about 35-40 recently emptied pallets across the parking lot from Cassine Station, where some guys are doing a brick paver job.

I heard the library at Auburn burned down. The real shame was that some of the books hadn't been colored in yet.

There are several pallets in a vacant lot across from my house that have been there for months. I would love to see them gone, pm me for further details...I would even be willing to haul them for you for a small fee
