burning plywood in stove

[vinylfloorguy]

The other day I met a guy who has a small business where he ends up with a ton of scrap woof left over. He has 1 1/2 by 1 1/2 square sheets of plywood and then cuts a circle out of it leaveing the corner pieces. he gives it away to othe people to burn but I am unsure if the glues in the plywood would be a problem. if it is not a problem, he has about 3 to 4 pickup loads that he will give to me right now and more later if I want it. So the question is, will plywood be safe to burn in large amounts?

It will burn hot and fast. This is good for kindling, just do not overload the stove.

I"m sure the burning glue would be the only problem.

I wouldn't burn it anywhere I could breath the fumes,the glue used in plywood when burned is very toxic.

I was planing to use it in my house stove, but I have my dad and brother who would use it in their shops. I did not think about the fumes, I was more worried about build up in my stove pipes.
