Logs & Firewood

Kiln-Dried Logs By The Crate

Our 1m³ crate is the best-value way to buy firewood for the winter. Each crate holds just over twice as many logs as a builder’s bag, and every log is cut to around 25 – 30 cm, which fits 95% of wood-burning stoves. Birch catches quickly, burns bright and leaves little ash, which makes it a favourite for wood burners and open fires.

The crate measures 90 cm × 120 cm × 110 cm, so check there’s room to set it down close to where you’ll store your logs.

Bags of Hardwood Logs and Kindling

Not ready for a full crate? Our bags of hardwood logs are ideal for topping up, for the odd evening fire, or for a smaller log store. Add a few bags of kindling to any order to get your fire going without firelighters.

Why Kiln-Dried Logs Burn Better

Wet wood wastes much of its energy boiling off water, so it smokes, spits and coats your stove glass and chimney with tar. Kiln drying takes the moisture out to 20% or less in days rather than the year or more it takes to air-season logs. The result is firewood that lights easily, burns hotter and makes less smoke: more heat from every log and a cleaner flue.

Firewood Delivery Across Herefordshire and The Forest of Dean

We deliver firewood from our Ross-on-Wye yard to homes in Hereford, Ledbury and Monmouth, through the Wye Valley to Symonds Yat and Goodrich, to villages including Llangarron, Gorsley and Weston-under-Penyard, and across the Forest of Dean to Coleford, Cinderford and Lydney.

Delivery is priced at checkout. Crates come on a Hiab lorry, which lifts the crate off and sets it down for you. We need firm, level ground and room for the lorry to get close, so tell us about narrow lanes, steep drives or low branches when you order.

Collect From Our Ross-on-Wye Yard

You’re welcome to collect logs and kindling from our yard at: The Sawmills, Walford, Ross-on-Wye, Herefordshire, HR9 5QS, between the hours of 8am and 5pm Monday to Friday. If you’re collecting a full crate, check with us first that your vehicle or trailer can take it.

Storing Your Logs

Keep logs off the ground and under cover, with air moving around them, and they’ll stay dry and ready to burn. Our log stores are built for exactly this, and our guide to storing firewood for winter has more tips.

Firewood FAQs

Do you deliver logs to Hereford?

Yes. We deliver firewood to Hereford and across Herefordshire from our Ross-on-Wye yard. Delivery is priced on the size of your order and the distance.

Do you deliver to the Forest of Dean? 

Yes, including Coleford, Cinderford and Lydney.

What’s the difference between kiln-dried and seasoned logs? 

Kiln-dried logs are dried in a kiln, so their moisture is lower and more consistent. Seasoned logs are air-dried over a year or more and can vary, especially after a wet summer.

Will your logs fit my stove? 

Our logs are cut to around 25 – 30 cm, which fits 95% of wood-burning stoves. Measure your firebox if you’re unsure.

Can I buy kindling on its own? 

Yes. Kindling comes in bags and can be added to any order or bought on its own.

How should I store a crate of logs?

Off the ground, under cover and somewhere with airflow. See our guide to storing firewood for winter.
