Fines are little bits of wood that come off the timber No, it has been filtered out with our trummeling machine this is unique to our timber. This provides you with the cleanest possible wood. Is it dry? A tonne is 1. How long should a tonne of firewood last me? Often 4 weeks, depending on usage. Will it fit in my fireplace? The length is approx. One of the large crates of stacked wood fills a ford transit tipper truck when tipped in loose. The big advantage of buying our crated timber is that you know exactly what volume you are getting each time you order.
That way you can plan your requirement as after using your first crate you will have a good idea of how long it will last you and how much you need to budget annually. The logs must be kept dry.
An odd shower is not going to affect them in the slightest as the wood is dense enough not to absorb. However persistent wetting and exposure to all weathers will cause the logs to deteriorate and ultimately decay. The ideal situation is that our palletised crate is wheeled directly into your garage, shed or carport etc.
For this to happen you need level hard paved driveway right into your storage area and sufficient access for our delivery truck to drop the pallet from a tail lift onto a point on your property that will allow the pallet to be wheeled on and into the storage. If the above situation is not possible the alternatives are to leave the wood in the crate having placed it where you want subject to access etc and then cover the crate with a tarpaulin to keep it weather proof or unpack the crate and barrow the logs to your storage area.
Our crates are wrapped in plastic but this is just for transport purposes and is not for long term storage outside. We can also build and supply very high quality durable log stores for customers within about an hour of our yard in Trim, so Dublin, Meath, Kildare, Westmeath, Louth, North Wicklow and North Offaly would be covered for this service. Usually 2 to 3 working days. However some outlying areas of Donegal, Kerry, Galway and Mayo may take a day or so longer as the couriers only do runs there every 48 hours.
Collections from our yard near Trim, Co Meath can also be made. So a 3m 3 load is equivalent to a thrown pile of firewood 3 metres long, 1 metre tall and 1 metre deep. For those of you more familiar with the old cord measurement, a cord is officially 3. This is one of our most frequently asked questions and also one of the most difficult to answer!
Obviously this depends on a number of factors -house size? Orientation —does the house capture the sun? Are you home all day or just in the evenings? Are you burning softwoods or hardwoods? We offer a prepay lay-by scheme to help spread the cost of purchasing firewood throughout the year. Find out more details on our Firewood Lay-By page. If you require a WINZ quote simply phone or email us your full name, address and the type and quantity of wood you would like and we will send the quote back to you to forward on to your WINZ contact.
Firewoods are ranked on their density. Soft woods such as Poplar and Willow are very porous and light. If you have a small, well insulated house, a short intense fire may be all you need to be comfortable but most people find the softwoods inadequate. Being porous, they are also very prone to weather damage. They can act like a sponge and soak up the rain if left out in the weather.
This means a weather proof shed with good ventilation is a must. Cookie Settings Accept All. Manage consent.
