Wood Cutting Permits available from New Mexico
The Bureau of Land Management New Mexico sells fuelwood permits for personal use to the public. Fuelwood permits cost $5 - $20 per cord and are available in person at select locations or online. Please see our Interactive Fuelwood Harvest Areas Map for maps of open wood-cutting areas,
In almost all field offices, BLM fuelwood permits are valid for cutting only dead (down or standing) piñon and juniper (cedar). Cutting green trees or other trees not allowed by permit is strictly prohibited. Minimum and maximum cords for purchase vary by field office. Rules, regulations, and timing vary slightly between field offices; please read all materials that accompany your permit.
The wood cut from the BLM-managed lands in these areas is often used by locals, tribal members, and land grant communities as a main source of home heating and cooking.
