Erin, you can give Rob Russell a call in Nanaimo and see what his prices are. I'm pretty certain it's less than you've been quoted. He is at: 250-668-9663. His business is Van Isle Firewood & Recycling.

*Ask Dave Neads or Michael D. Mehta. The Heat Pumps.. vary in cost ... depending on size of house.. and other factors. ( I believe there is some sort of Rebate type discount.. available. )
Christine B. replied:
Sustainable Gabriola will be able to give you a price for the heat pump system

I bought mine from these guyz. I got it from there eBay store and paid $1100 for a 18000 btu. Total cost after buying all parts way under 1400. http://www.sogoodtobuy.com/single-zone-mini-split-air-conditioner-s/130.htm

Of course you pay less if you can store more than one cord at a time, but Paul is charging the same as Victoria (http://firewoodvictoria.ca/firewood-prices/) and has the additional hurdle of the Gabe ferry at $3.10 per foot and about six hours (2 x3) staff labour just to cross the water. Yes, the price creeps up each year, but so does BCF and everything else in this world.

Had two & a half cords.. seasoned.. split, very dry.. from Adam Mathers / cell = 250 739 0575 ( $260.. per cord.. now.. apparently... had mine earlier in season ...for bit less ).
Just knocked down a bunch of trees on our new property, and we want to move them! Any recommendations for (a) someone willing to buy firewood (or buck it up and trade),...
anyone know the best place to get a cord of firewood, seasoned?

Another vote for Rob Russell from me. An aside: seeing Canada is supposed to be metric I wonder why the cubic metric measure (called a stere) isn't being used. It's a meter by a meter by a meter.
Hello, does anyone know of local firewood suppliers other than Island firewood, I'm looking to compare prices but the market seems to have become a monopoly.
Looking for local firewood. Would be completely grateful for a recommendation. Van Isle's answering service is Full

I'm pretty sure Rob Russell of Van Isle has said the best way to contact him for firewood is to pm his FB business page. https://www.facebook.com/vanislefirewood/
there was a guy named paul selling fir here on the island his number is 250-668-0394 im not sure if he still has any or not but its worth a try :) good luck in your search and i hope you can find some here
Try Brandon Avender FB... ( He is delivering to me on Monday.. seasoned split Hardwood one cord ). He sells split seasoned D Fir as well as other woods. * check with Brandon directly via FB for prices etc.. *( Great prices.... well split.. seasoned... full cords.. reliable ). Recommended.
Does anyone know of a talented welder / blacksmith on Gabriola? I've designed a rustic chandelier and a firewood stand and I need some help. The designs use simple...
Today I bought a load of firewood from Branden Avender. He posted recently on here and brought the full measured cord over from Nanaimo for me today. He arrived on time....
