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

Yes, Banbury 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 Cherwell District Council’s website for updates

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

Banbury’s relationship with wood and fire dates back centuries, deeply intertwined with the town’s development and resilience.

The 1628 Fire and Rebuilding Efforts

In 1628, Banbury experienced a devastating fire that led to significant destruction. The aftermath saw the town receiving timber from Parliament to aid in reconstruction. This event underscored the critical role of wood in both the town’s infrastructure and its recovery.

Timber in Construction and Industry

Historically, timber was a primary building material in Banbury. However, by the end of the 17th century, the use of timber framing in buildings ceased, possibly due to a shortage of suitable timber or changes in building traditions. Despite this, wood continued to play a vital role in various industries, including the production of saltpetre for gunpowder during the English Civil War.

Fire Safety Measures and the 1754 Fire Anniversary

The 1628 fire left a lasting impact on Banbury’s approach to fire safety. As late as 1754, townspeople commemorated the anniversary of the fire by placing tubs of water outside their houses, a precautionary measure to prevent future blazes. This practice highlights the community’s ongoing vigilance and adaptation to fire risks.

The Evolution of Firefighting in Banbury

By 1825, the Paving Commissioners prohibited the use of thatch on new houses to reduce fire hazards. Firefighting equipment was stored in St. Mary’s Church, and the community relied on church bells to alert residents of fires. The formation of the Banbury Volunteer Fire Brigade in 1870 marked a significant step in organized fire prevention and response.
