 Buyer beware. They don't give receipts or guarantees. |
| How is the wood dried ? | KILN DRIED at 200 degrees for 72 hours to an average moisture content of 25% or less |
Left outside for an undetermined amount of time to "season" to an unspecifiied moisture content |
| Definition of "Seasoned" | KILN DRIED Firewood is produced using high tech processes regulated by state agencies. |
There is no legal definition for "seasoned" firewood. Anyone can call any firewood "seasoned". |
| Volume measurement | We use true cord measurements & cubic foot volumes as defined by NYS Bureau of Weights & Measurements |
They sell deceptive "Face Cords" that are not legal volumes in NYS. "Face Cords" = 1/3 true cord |
| Efficiency ? | Our low moisture content insures true BTU ratings = more heat for less $ Use less firewood & have hotter fires. |
High moisture content = less heat & more $$$ spent. More wood to buy & store. |
| Delivered in bags ? | All of our KILN DRIED Firewood is delivered in bags. The bags are precisely measured & easy to store. |
They dump your wood in a pile. You can't measure it & have to work hard to move it. |
| Consistent Quality ? | KILN DRIED Firewood is the same premium quality every time, even during the coldest months. |
"Seasoned" firewood is unpredictable & mid-Winter supplies are lowest in quality. |

Unadvertised pricing for quantities inconsistently measured. |

Insects & pests live in outdoor wood piles. Bugs travel well with firewood. |

Stored on dirt & dumped in your yard. The dirt ends up in your house. |
| Waste ? | Our wood is carefully sorted so you will burn every log. |

Inconsistent random lengths. Some pieces may not fit your burning area. |
| Types of Wood ? | Our Hardwoods Mix is processed from specific hardwood species (as listed on the product page). Early in the Spring we also have some specialty woods (Ash, Cherry & Hickory) |
Random wood is cut & mixed together with no species guaranteed. There are often softwood species mixed in & they never have any specialty woods. |
