Easy firewood side hustle. All you need is a 5 gallon bucket. Cut into 2 pieces. Clamp the pieces to pallet forks or saw horses if you don't have equipment. Pickup some cheap shrink wrap from Amazon. Fill the bucket. Wrap. Set up shop and wait. All cash! Camping season is coming!!

Here the farmers sell wood in either 60L net sacks(and laugh at you behind your back), by the pallet, or trailer load. And if you buy by the trailer load, they usually deliver free of charge. Packing it in such small bundles takes time and time is money.

Living in small areas is always easier to get a tiny side hustle going. Only your neighbors will drive by that spot, and they like supporting each other. Sadly, I think the people most desperate for a side hustle ain't going to find this particularly useful 😂 I do like the idea though of the split pail being used to measure out bundles

Super easy, all you need is a bucket, a forklift, tons of already split and seasoned firewood, a truck, a lean-to on the side of the road and a lockbox. You'll definitely recoup all that in 10 years and then it's all profit! 😂

That's the point of a side hustle. You've already got the infrastructure in place because of other jobs or projects, so it's just one more thing to bring in a little bit more. Very little net cost since it's essentially a byproduct of a different product. Think about the way mills or fire wood companies also sell wood chips. Or how rock businesses have increasingly smaller rock sizes to sell. It's something that costs very little amounts of money and sells for a good or at least somewhat decent price, and most of the sale is profit. That's why there are so many multi-million dollar companies. They minimize waste and maximize profits.

Think Bic, Unilever, even the oil industry. There's not a single high dollar company who stays within one product. They use all their tools to help expand production. Think about it, cereal is cheap, yet general mills makes a killing in the grain industry. Why everything they make costs very little to make and all the expensive things tend to serve multiple purposes in the beginnings of the business. That's why a good tool is never a bad investment.

Babushkas in Eastern Europe bring 100-pound logs from the forest in winter. In 2 feet height snow. . The guy in America wraps the pieces of tinder in foil and uses a forklift and car to move one or two qubits nerby. All the wood you have there I use on average 3 weeks. We are not same.

Forklift 6. Metal jig 7. Multicab 8. Shed 9. Honest neighbors That's it, you're on your way to making very little money!
