SEASONED HARDWOOD
THE SEASONING PROCESS
1) TREE FELLING: From fully sustainable forests, Tree Surgeons will carefully select designated trees to be harvested for Firewood or the Timber Trade.
2) HARVESTING: Once felled the trees are carefully taken to designated areas for part seasoning and transportation.
3) TRANSPORTATION: The fallen trees are then stacked onto specialist lorries for delivery to the processing yard.
4) PROCESSING: Specialist processing machines then cut the logs to size and then split into smaller pieces ready for your wood burner.
5) SEASONING: The split logs are then placed in a dry area and allowed to air dry naturally. Depending on species this can take from 6 to 24 months.
Our Seasoned Hardwood allows you to buy the firewood at a cheaper rate as the firewood has been naturally air dried to below 20% moisture and has not been forced dried in a kiln.
On average these logs will contain between 18 to 20% moisture capacity and ready to burn on your fire. Unlike a Kiln Dried Log which is forced dried the moisture content will rarely full below 18% .
The contents of the Bags will contain various mixed Hardwoods. Ash, Beech, Oak, Silver Birch and Sycamore, all of which will give you a long burn time.
We believe the quality of our Seasoned Hardwood is unbeatable for both efficiency and price in Cornwall and Devon with FREE DELIVERY on all products.
The Firewood will be delivered to anywhere on your property by our staff at no extra charge in our maxi bags. We will then empty the contents of the maxi bag where you stipulate. Alternatively we can leave them in the Bag at an additional cost of £2.50 Bag.
We monitor our prices daily to be the most affordable fuel in the southwest.
