It's official, wood is good..
We are a Nelson City Council "Good Wood" approved supplier, which means we supply quality dry wood that's ready for you to burn.
NCC have an environmental plan in place that includes a goal to replace open fires with approved woodburners.  Contact the council for a list of approved woodburners.

Tips for Firewood storage:

  • Stack the first layer off the ground and allow air to circulate around the wood.
  • Softer woods like Pine should always be stored covered or in a dry area.
  • Harder woods like Douglas Fir won't retain water if they get wet, so can cope with being stored un-covered.

General tips for burning wood:

  • Get your wood early to allow maximum drying time
  • Dry wood burns hotter AND cleaner
  • Keep your fire burning well - burning wood at a high temperature results in a cleaner burn
  • Dry wood won't soot-up your chimney as much
  • Get your chimney swept regularly - this will keep your fire more efficient and reduce the risk of a chimney fire
