Questions worth asking first

Lead with your timeline (this weekend vs next month), how you can take delivery (driveway stack vs curbside), and whether you need help splitting or stacking. Midwestern buyers like predictable units, honest grades, and realistic delivery radii.

What to include in your listing

Use plain units, show stack or log ends, and name moisture status if you know it. If you are still firming up price, say "open to offers" instead of leaving numbers blank—empty fields get skipped.
