E.Central MN
Around here some of the power coops sell their used poles, I think I was told about $10/post. A friend got some to build a shed, but decided to buy new rectangular posts. I stopped to visit (had my trailer hooked on) and he talked us into taking some of them. We loaded up the best ones, about 7 or 8 of them for fence posts. I traded him for a load of firewood. Years back we took down and rebuilt a corn crib that used telephone poles. Later we took the crib down and used the poles to build a 40 x 60 pole shed. I wish we had used new posts as some of them have rotted off. Usually posts are spaced between 8-10' apart. So with 8 poles you could build a shed that was 30' long.
