Frequently Asked Questions

  • A cubic metre of Firewood is classified as a 1m by 1m by 1m cube that is filled with hand-thrown firewood.

  • ‍ ‍For most households using a fire most evenings over winter, around 8 cubic metres is usually enough. If you’re home all day and heating an older or less insulated house, you may need closer to 16 cubic metres for the season.

Our Story

Celebrating 20 years of keeping homes warm, our family-run firewood business began with Mike, chopping and selling timber by hand.

Over the years, the next generation has stepped in—Sam, his eldest, helping with deliveries and splitting, followed by Luke and Ben joining the team.

Today, Sam and Ben have expanded into full-time forestry, sourcing and securing high-quality logs, while Luke continues to support Mike in the yard, keeping the operation running smoothly.

From humble beginnings to two decades of trusted service, our passion for dry firewood and for family—is at the heart of everything we do.
