in ohio you have to have a statement from your local fire department,and you have to wait 2 days for your money and recieve it in the form of a check.they changed over to this system about a year ago maybea little less than a year ago.so you pretty much have to have a house or building burn to sale the burnt stuff around here.kentucky ,at least the northern part near me will not buy it burnt anymore either.as far as i know west virginia was still buying it burnt as of 2 months ago
