These hold just under 1/2 a cord of firewood.

A cord of green Red Oak weighs 4900 lbs. Half of that is 2450 lbs. The IBC tote weighs 120 lbs.

Some species of wood are denser than others. Most of what I use is oak, and maple with a bit of birch. We get ash too and it weighs over 5000 lbs/cord but I mix it with slower burning woods for firewood.

I get mine here. You can specify the WLL, length, color, size, and ends. I put d-rings every 2' in the stake pockets and use twisted snaplhooks on the 2" 10,000# straps. That way I can put them on and tighten them down by myself. Even if they loosen up they can't come off. The second link is to the ones I buy. I use axle straps on the pipe top trailer to position the straps where I need them and on the load if needed.

Can’t beat the price vs strength.
