See all

A cord of wood is 4 feet x 4 feet x 8 feet which is 128 cubic feet. Niles Firewood sells a 'cord' at less than 100 cubic feet. Also, a fair amount of limbs and small kindlin in mixed in. They are not the only firewood company that does this hough, they ALL do it. It's called false advertisement. However, they did have olivewood one year and that was great for woodworig projects. read more

Niles Firewood - Closed again - Firewood Near Me - Bakersfield, California

First off let me tell you, what they are selling are not full cord wood it is 96 cu. feet. A cord is 128 cu. feet. That's 1/4 of a cord short of a full cord for the same price you can get full cord wood. Look around and get more for your money, I bought 4 cords of almond last year and the guys that brought it had all neatly stacked in two trucks and a trailer. They did not mind when I measured their loads. This year I bought 2 full cords of white oak mixed with black oak for the Same price Niles is sellin their 96cu feet of almond. Also some of the logs from Niles were only 12 inches long. Shop,around ! read more

So far, so good. The oak is seasoned like it's supposed to be. Bought it this afternoon and it's burning well this evening. The prices were fair, so we'll be back again! Lit well with a blowtorch and no kindling. read more

Niles Firewood - Firewood Near Me - Bakersfield, California

Horribly incompetent and unresponsive to the needs of customers. I arrived on Wednesday, May 18th, to pick up a 1/2 cord of firewood. Sign says the yard is closed Sunday through Wednesday and only open 1-5 pm on Thursday and Friday. Ok, my mistake for not calling ahead. I called anyway to see whether someone was at the yard. I spoke to Gus, who told me to come back at 1 pm on Friday. Today is Friday and it's 1 pm and there's a new sign on the gate stating that they have changed their hours completely and they are only available after 5 pm every day. Why the hell would you tell me to come back at 1 pm if you're planning on changing your hours? Moreover, there is someone in the yard, so I called him over and he said he would sell me wood, but cash only because he doesn't have a key to the office. What a crap company. Never coming back. read more
