Traditionally Seasoned Firewood -v- Imported Sun Dried Firewood

As suppliers of Traditionally Seasoned Firewood we rely totally on dry weather to achieve optimum seasoning of our firewood.
With our British climate becoming wetter and consequently more humid we find ourselves unable to achieve the minimum acceptable 20% moisture content in our products.

Confucius is purported to have said “if you enjoy your job you will never work another day in your life” we believe in this saying and as such haven’t done a stroke of work in the last 16 years!!

Our intention therefore is to do another 16 similar years but if we can’t season the wood then who can? …
People who live in hot, dry climates (simple really!)

From around the World we have sourced firewood that is so dry it has no moisture content but is so hard it burns for days, fruitwoods and nutwoods which bring authentic and exotic flavours and perfumes to interior or alfresco entertaining.

Sourcing the Species

From Africa: Camel Thorn, Red Garland, and Sickle Bush
From America: Apple, Olive, Almond, Pecan, Walnut and Hickory
From Mexico: Mesquite
Also under consideration are Russian Silver Birch products namely Round Peeled Logs and Birch Briques

Moisture Content

0% for the African Woods
5% - 15% for the American and Mexican Woods
Russian not yet confirmed but we understand to be about 5%

Sourcing the Wood

Our chosen Suppliers have demonstrated to our satisfaction, Empathy and Enthusiasm with and for firewood also Environmental working practises and Excellence in terms of supply and long term commitment

What Does It Look Like

The African woods come under Acacia as a species heading.
Their home environment, harsh and arid, produces stunning shapes and colours.
The American and Mexican woods, with the exception of Apple and Walnut are species which have never been commercially available as firewood in this country.
A picture as they say paints a thousand words and to this end we are both pleased and excited to hand this part over to www.vickyrobinson.co.uk who has accepted the perhaps, unenviable task of turning firewood into art.

TNT

TNT has been our carrier of choice for a number of years now.
Our customers have told some amazing tales of customer care “above and beyond”.
As a result of importing our firewood we are now able to offer 500kg and 1000kg loads.
These are delivered by TNT Special Services Division.
When we say Special we mean Special - for example:-
if you live in a flat they will deploy a two man team to unpack and carry all the bags upstairs which incurs only a minimal extra charge
How good is that?
Oh yes, and they can take all the packaging away too!!

When

We are quietly confident that our African Wood will be available for you from week commencing the 9th June; the American/Mexican wood will be a little later due to longer sailing times.

How Much

One Sack (20kg) £25.00 (including Next Day Delivery)
25 Sacks (500kg) £500.00 (including Next Day Delivery)
50 Sacks (1000kg) £800.00 (including Next Day Delivery)

Where

By using TNT Special Services we can now deliver 500kg and 1000kg to the North of Scotland and Northern Ireland all on a Next Day Service
