A standard load of our firewood is 3.6 cubic metres. This is the equivalent to the old "cord" measurement which we are no longer allowed to use. Our trucks can carry two of these loads at a time. We have a Delivery fee indicator.

| Poplar and Willow |
These are not regarded as quality firewoods. Personally, I would say they are comparable in burning to Standard Pine, however they tend to produce more ash. |

Standard Pine |
This Pine is cut from trees between about 30 and 40 years old. As Pine trees get older they become better burning. We do not like to sell Pine from trees under 18 years old as they tend to burn too quickly.

Old Pine |
This is cut from Pine trees that are over 40 years old. There is still some variance between the burning of a 40 year old tree and a 100 year old one, so there can be some variance in the burning quality of our Old Pine. In some circumstances very Old Pine can have a higher heat output than Macrocarpa. It should be noted that the resin in old pine means that it doesn't burn as cleanly as other wood |

| Lawson Cypress |
This is quite simlar to macrocarpa (see below) although it may give out slighly less heat.

| Macrocarpa |
Although this is still classified as a soft wood, it is very good burning and also burns very clean. This is not suitable for open fires as it sparks. |
Unavailable | |
| Wattle | This is a hardwood so burns longer and hotter than the above types. We recommend that a softer wood is used first to get the fire going and to establish a good ember base as starting a fire with a hardwood is more difficult. | ------ | Not Available |
| Gum |
This is a good hardwood. Red and Blue Gum are extremely long burning woods. There are, however, a variety of species and they do vary in their burning quality. While most species make very good firewood, there are some species that are more comparable to a soft wood. We try to keep these species separate when we get large quantities of them.
