Regular Ash Crate 400Kg
£279.00
This regular crate is tightly packed full of premium kiln dried hardwood Birch. The neat stacking ensures the equivalent volume of approximately 2.1 large builders bags of logs. If you use your log burner mostly during evenings and weekends, this is perfect and it will see you through the winter.
Birch, like ash, is another hardwood and a good firewood to burn particularly if you want fast heat. Birch bark makes great fire starter because of its similarity to paper and has a unique slightly sweet smell which most people find pleasant. Birch is perfect if your logs will be on display due to its silvery flaky bark. We recommend Birch if you're having occasional fires and want fast high heat. They're excellent when burnt with other slower burning logs.

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.
