FAQs

Delivery times depend on our time of year but are typically 2-4 working days unless specified elsewhere, we also offer a next day delivery service. We will always give you a call or text to arrange a date and time as we want to make sure it is convenient for you.

Logs need to be dried before they are burnt; if they aren’t, the extra moisture must be dried off by the fire, wasting precious heat energy. Additionally, wet firewood releases harmful toxins that can build up in your appliance increasing the risk of a fire. These toxins also escape into the atmosphere and are detrimental to environmental and human health. Kiln-dried logs are far more efficient, burning hotter and longer while producing less smoke. Ours are guaranteed below 18% moisture and carry the Woodsure ‘Ready to Burn’ certification – ideal for homes with log burners or open fireplaces.

We are delighted to be certified by the Woodsure ‘Ready to Burn’ scheme. They are the only certification scheme in the UK that rigorously checks that wood fuel producers produce and supply wood fuel to the correct standard. Not only do their rigorous standards contribute to the reduction of air pollution, they also act to protect your appliance from unnecessary damage. To learn more about this worthwhile scheme, visit woodsure.co.uk.

This depends on the size of your burner. Our standard size is 10 inch, but we offer a range of sizes from small to large in length, as well as chunky or skinny logs so you have five sizes to choose from. If unsure, check your stove manual or give our friendly team a call and we’ll help you choose the right size.

The vast majority of our wood comes from within the UK. Many of our logs are sourced from managed woodland across Northamptonshire and other surrounding counties and dried on our local site. Your logs could have come from just a few miles outside of Kettering! By sourcing and drying our logs locally, we reduce unnecessary transport and support responsible forestry, helping to preserve the local countryside.

Yes you can burn logs as Kettering is not currently in a smoke control zone. You can use a log burner or open fire. Just be sure to burn kiln-dried wood, like ours, which meets all the requirements for clean, efficient burning. It’s always a good idea to check the North Northamptonshire Coucil Website for any rules or updates.

Fun Facts…. Kettering’s Historic Connection to Wood and Fire

Early Kilns & Roman Era – Wood, Fire, and Industry

Roman and Iron Age activity left behind a legacy of fire-based industries: iron-smelting furnaces, pottery kilns, corn-drying ovens, and a Roman-era pottery kiln with clay pedestals and corn ovens built over older pits and ditches have been discovered in Kettering. These archaeological finds point to the use of wood-fired heat in industrial processes centuries before the town was formally recognized.
• Between the 1st and 4th centuries AD, the area was among the three main iron-working centres in Roman Britain.

Kilns in the Medieval & Early Modern Period

• During the first century AD, lime kilns and pottery kilns were in use locally, again illustrating the essential role of wood and fire in daily life even before Kettering became a market town.

The Great Fires of the 18th Century

Kettering suffered two devastating town fires closely connected to wood and open flames:

• First Great Fire – 26 July 1744
The fire began in a kiln used for drying oats, most likely wood‐fired, and spread swiftly due to closely packed buildings, some with thatched roofs. Most of the old section of town was destroyed.

• Second Great Fire – 5 November 1766
Occurred on Guy Fawkes Night. Despite mayoral orders banning bonfires and fireworks, a squib (firework) set fire to a thatched roof near the Swan Inn at High Street and Market Street. Even after attempts to dismantle the roof to stop the blaze, embers reignited and the fire raged for hours, consuming a large part of town, including reaching the Woolpack Inn.

These fires reshaped Kettering’s landscape, making way for the Victorian and Edwardian architecture that followed.
