Firewood business operating since 2015 and is the highest reviewed & rated firewood business in Seattle. I’m looking for an established tree company or land clearing company to take this business to a whole new level. It has operated as a one-man show for its entire life and has been a great little money-maker.
I bought the business in 2021 from the original owner. But since the landscaping side of our business has grown a ton in the last 2 years, I just haven’t been able to keep up with demand. Priced to sell because I have another growing, successful business to focus on. I don’t want to deal with the details of this business anymore.
If you actually pick up the phone, make deliveries, and DON’T make back every penny you spent for this business in the first year, I’d be shocked. We’ve had over 1,000+ phone calls in the past year alone (including one to supply the City of Seattle Christmas ships!) despite not having delivered wood since May 2023. We have a customer list of over 170+ people all over the Seattle-Eastside region who love our delivery service.
It’s got an amazing Google My Business profile, a one-of-a-kind web domain that was up for sale for $10k+ in 2021, and a loyal customer base that waits the whole year to get deliveries from us. We’ve done ZERO marketing and rely solely on our Google My Business page and incredible .com business domain.
What you DO get in this sale:
Ownership and access to our incredible .com business domain
Ownership of the business phone number and text message account
Past customer list with name, address, phone number, order size, payment etc.
Entire phone call list with over 3 years of calls
Contacts for reputable firewood suppliers (gold)
What you DON’T get in this sale:
No equipment or trucks
No space to rent or use for firewood storage or deliveries
No consulting beyond the first 1-month after closing the sale
This is a no-brainer for anyone with access to a steady stream of firewood (ex. tree companies, land clearers, excavation companies, timber haulers, etc) who want a stream of high-paying customers to sell to. When you break down the cords into smaller amounts (¼ cord, ? cord, ½ cord so on), you’ll end up selling for over $900+/cord. Our competition doesn’t want to deal with less than ½ cord quantities, so we get to ask more. You can make darn good money at that price point!
Most of your competition is:
Running wood out of a meth/fenty camp in the woods
Old, getting ready to retire
Terrible/non-existent customer service
Who SHOULD buy this business:
Any established tree care/land clearing/excavation company with extra yard space or looking to maximize profit by selling wood normally hauled away at the end of their jobs.
Anyone looking to make a few extra bucks in the winter.
Anyone sitting on a vacant lot who wants to run a seasonal business selling wood to make an extra $30-60k in over 3 months in the winter.
Who should NOT buy this business:
Anyone who just wants mailbox money or passive income. This is hard work.
Anyone “just starting out” without a truck or wood splitter. You need a big truck to make deliveries.
Anyone who doesn’t have land to store 10-20 cords of wood on. Land to reload your truck from is huge.
Anyone who can’t come with the asking price up front. If you don’t have the cash to close, you won’t make it far in this business.
Further details available upon request. I look forward to seeing where you’ll take this business next!
