If you or someone you know needs wood for heat this winter, the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office has just what you want. Sheriff Donnie Craig has wood that’s been cut and can be delivered, free of charge.There are restrictions however. Craig said that last year the same offer was made but some attempted to abuse the system. As a consequence, there is now a home visit made to determine need.

Those who are disabled or elderly are given priority. If you or someone you know needs this service you are urged to contact Sandy at the Pickens County Sheriff’s Office at 706-253-8902.
