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 Bedfordshire and other surrounding counties and dried on our local site. Your logs could have come from just a few miles outside of Sandy! By sourcing and drying our logs locally, we reduce unnecessary transport and support responsible forestry, helping to preserve the local countryside.

Yes, Sandy is not currently in a smoke control zone, so 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 Sandy Town Council website for updates.

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

Historic Watermills: Wood Meets Fire Risk

  • Sandy’s earliest mention in the Domesday Book of 1086 records two watermills in the area, though it’s unclear whether they were separate or part of one site. A later mill, built in 1857, stood where Sandy Mill once operated, powered by a water wheel and featuring wooden interiors and machinery, elements inherently susceptible to fire. These mills, while crucial to local economy, were vulnerable to fire, wooden structures adjacent to heat sources and moving parts always carried inherent risk.

Firefighting Infrastructure: Response to Wooden Settlements

  • By the early 19th century, Sandy had its own fire engine, overseen by local churchwardens. These early machines were horse-drawn or manually pushed, carrying hoses, pumps, buckets, and hooks to combat thatched-roof fires, common in towns built primarily of timber and thatch.
  • A notable incident occurred in 1863, when a spark from a passing railway engine ignited buildings at Warren Farm. Sandy’s volunteer brigade responded swiftly, likely preventing greater loss to nearby wooden structures. The rail company was asked to compensate for the volunteer firefighters’ efforts.
  • In 1882, a formal fire station was built at 10 Cambridge Road. The brigade remained volunteer-run until the mid-20th century, with the current station on Ivel Road opening in 1954.

Timber Heritage: From Oak to Structures

  • A dendrochronological study of oak timber from Warren Villas in Sandy dated between AD 960–1125, indicating timber use in local structures dating back to medieval and possibly Roman-times. This underscores a long tradition of wooden construction, which, while reflective of local craftsmanship, also heightened the importance of fire prevention and response.
