This Large crate is tightly packed full of premium kiln dried Hornbeam. The neat stacking ensures the equivalent volume of approximately 3.5 builders bags of logs. If you use your log burner intensively during evenings and weekends, this is perfect and it will see you through the winter.
Hornbeam is an exceptional wood to burn due to being very dense and hard. This in turn means that it burns very slowly, even slower than Ash. It is not as well known in the UK as other similar wood species such as oak and beech, but it is a real top-quality firewood.
We understand it's difficult to compare online firewood products like for like, which is why we've created this fun comparison guide to help paint a picture of how much wood you really get with us!

Our kiln dried logs in nets are compactly packed, where as builder bags are loosely filled, which means there's a lot of space and air in the bag. Builder bags often contain seasoned logs that have a higher water content than kiln dried logs, thus increasing the weight of the bag but reducing the burn quality of the wood. Ultimately, you’ll end up paying for more water, less wood and have poorer quality logs to burn.
On the day of your delivery your firewood will be brought to you via a tail-lift lorry and placed either kerbside or your driveway. Please read our shipping and returns page to make sure you understand the limitations and your responsibilities before you place your order.
