Winter is getting closer, and now is the perfect time to get your firewood stocked up and ready for the colder months.
At The Northern Firewood Co, we supply premium kiln-dried firewood across Manchester and the surrounding areas, helping homes, pubs, restaurants and businesses get prepared before the winter rush begins.
Whether you use a log burner every evening, have an open fire or simply want to make sure you've got plenty of logs ready for those colder nights, stocking up early can make winter much easier.
Why Stock Up on Firewood Before Winter?
As temperatures start to fall, demand for firewood naturally increases.
Buying your logs ahead of the busiest part of winter means your log store can be filled and ready to go before you really need it.
It also gives you the opportunity to properly store your firewood somewhere dry, covered and well ventilated, helping to keep your logs in great condition throughout the season.
There's something satisfying about heading into winter with a full log store and knowing you're sorted for the colder months ahead.
Premium Kiln-Dried Firewood in Manchester
Not all firewood is the same.
At The Northern Firewood Co, we focus on supplying high-quality kiln-dried logs with a moisture content below 20%.
Lower-moisture firewood is important because less of the fire's energy is wasted trying to evaporate water from the logs.
The result is:
- Easier lighting
- Cleaner burning
- Better heat output
- Less smoke
- Less moisture entering your chimney or flue
- A much better firewood experience overall
Our firewood is also Ready to Burn® certified, giving customers confidence that they're buying firewood suitable for domestic burning.
Oak, Birch or a Mixture of Both?
We supply several options depending on how you like to use your fire.
Kiln-Dried Oak
Oak is a dense hardwood that produces a long, steady burn.
It's an excellent choice for log burners where you want consistent heat and logs that burn for longer.
Kiln-Dried Birch
Birch is extremely popular because it lights easily and produces a bright, attractive flame.
It's ideal for getting your fire established quickly and works particularly well in log burners and open fires.
Oak & Birch Mix
Can't decide?
Our Oak & Birch mixed firewood gives you the best of both worlds.
Use the birch to help establish the fire before adding oak for a longer, steadier burn.
It's one of our favourite combinations for keeping a log burner going throughout a cold winter evening.
How Much Firewood Should You Order for Winter?
This depends heavily on how frequently you use your fire.
If your log burner is mainly used occasionally at weekends, a smaller quantity may last you for a considerable amount of time.
However, households using a wood burner most evenings throughout autumn and winter will naturally work through considerably more.
For customers looking to stock up properly, our Jumbo Bags and XXL Firewood Crates are a great option.
Our Jumbo Bags contain approximately 0.75mÂł of loose firewood, while our large XXL crates are ideal for customers wanting to build up a substantial winter supply in one delivery.
Buying in larger quantities also means fewer deliveries and less chance of discovering you've run out just as the temperature drops.
How to Store Your Firewood
Even though your logs arrive kiln dried, good storage is still important.
Ideally, firewood should be stored:
Off the ground – Prevent logs from sitting directly on wet soil or paving.
Covered from above – Protect your logs from persistent Manchester rain.
Well ventilated – Airflow around the logs helps keep them dry.
Accessible – Nobody wants to be moving hundreds of logs around in freezing temperatures and rain.
A dedicated log store with a roof and open or slatted sides is one of the best solutions.
