This post is to sell 2 cubic metres of firewood and burnable chip & twig debris, first in, first served.
(but there's also another ad in TradeMe titled "Woodburner - Metro Rad - Complete, all parts including chimney and rooftop boot)
See photo, take all the wood and the burnable wood debris in the bags, or take nothing.
Mix of cut building wood and cut plum tree, other tree wood. Dry. Burns beautifully, hot. See the recent picture.
The debris is good kindling - twigs, small chips of wood, swept up after the cutting, dry cabbage tree leaf bundles.
What you see is the remainder after another person filled her big horse float with similar, 4 cubic metres, today.
The bags aren't included, sorry - I use them for gardening.

Boy 1 is white and cream.
Boy 2 is tri-colour.
Girl 1 is Tri-colour.
Girl 2 is cream and white.

All of the puppies have been well socialised. I'm currently in Himatangi and have been driving them into Palmerston North once a week to get them used to travelling and meeting new people.
All of the puppies are very affectionate, love cuddles and laps, and will make wonderful companions.
They will have had their first vaccination, and worm and flea treated. They will come with a blankie, a toy, and some of the food that they are currently eating.
They will be ready for their forever home any time after 12 October.
If you're interested, please either message me or text/call me on 0210 851 6293

New Zealand currently has no national cat management plan, allowing domestic and stray cats to roam and breed as they please. This can lead to the death of native species, not to mention creating nuisance for neighbours. Do you think some laws should be in place for our feline friends?
