The bundles of wood are easily gathered northwest of the outpost. Watchout for the prowlers and bears though, they can give you quite the trouble while doing this quest. If you have the Defend the Frontier quest you can complete that while collecting the wood with ease.

Although the two quests above go together really well. Should you have already completed "Protect the Frontier". Take the time to kill the Prowlers. They are pretty good at yielding "Stringy Wolf Meat". Which is good for cooking.
The Bundles themselves respawn pretty quick. They are really close to each other. So you don't have to go all out looking for these. Making this a really quick quest for 775 XP.
For instance. I found them by trees at these coordinates:
76,62 (2 bundles)
77,60 (Near Murloc Camp - be wary)
77,63
77,64
78,62
79,61
79,63You only need 8 bundles. So as you can see, there isn't that much searching to complete this quest.

Ravenark is referring to the quest "Protect the Frontier" (http://www.wowhead.com/?quest=52) and he's exactly right, these two quests do make a great pairing.

What to do
Description
I've got a real problem on my hands. I have a deadline looming for an order of lumber, and I'm running out of time. The wolves and bears north of here have chased my workers away from the bundles of wood that they've already chopped. I've already talked to Deputy Rainer about clearing the animals, but I need someone to go collect the wood for me. If you could collect eight bundles of wood for me I might just make my deadline.

This note is a schedule with a list of days and times when a person -- described only as "The Collector" -- will receive a shipment of gold from the mines in Elwynn Forest. From the schedule, it looks as if the Collector resides near the Brackwell Pumpkin Patch in eastern Elwynn.
