Kiln Dried Log Crates for Regular Wood Burners

When your stove is used several times a week, buying firewood a few bags at a time can mean repeated orders, more packaging and a supply that disappears quickly.

FirewoodFund’s kiln dried log crates for sale are designed for customers who want a substantial quantity of neatly stacked hardwood in one palletised delivery. The range includes birch, ash and mixed-hardwood firewood crates, with Medium, Large and Extra Large options available across the products shown above.

The current crate range contains responsibly sourced hardwood from Eastern European woodland. FirewoodFund’s wider kiln dried log range includes both British and European-sourced products, depending on the individual item selected.

Each crate contains logs approximately 25cm long, kiln dried below 20% moisture and Woodsure Ready to Burn certified. Check the individual product page for its precise species, origin, available sizes and current price.

How Much Firewood Is in Each Log Crate?

The right crate size depends on how regularly you burn firewood and how much suitable storage space you have available.

Crate size	Approximate dimensions	Stacked volume	Loose-volume equivalent	Most suitable for
Medium	115 × 108 × 69cm	0.85m³	1.42m³	Regular use where storage height is limited
Large	115 × 108 × 111cm	1.37m³	2.29m³	Frequent winter burning and fewer repeat orders
Extra Large	115 × 108 × 149cm	1.84m³	3.08m³	High-use households with sufficient storage

Available sizes vary between products. The dimensions of the wooden crates can also change slightly through natural expansion and contraction.

Understanding Stacked and Loose Volume

Stacked volume describes the space occupied by the logs while they are closely packed inside the crate.

Loose volume estimates how much space those same logs would occupy if they were tipped out rather than stacked. Air gaps between loose logs make the volume appear larger.

These figures are two different ways of describing the same quantity of firewood—not two separate amounts. When comparing a crate of logs with another firewood product, use the firewood volume comparison chart to make a clearer like-for-like comparison.

Choose Your Crate by Wood Species

Crate size is important, but the species inside it can also influence which product best suits the way you use your fire.

Birch Log Crates

The Birch Kiln Dried Log Crate contains birch hardwood throughout.

Birch establishes readily and produces an attractive, lively flame. It is a strong choice for customers who value easier ignition and dependable everyday performance from their firewood.

Ash Log Crates

The Ash Kiln Dried Log Crate provides a dedicated supply of kiln dried ash rather than a mixed-hardwood selection.

Ash is a popular all-round firewood for regular domestic use. The availability of Medium, Large and Extra Large options also makes this product particularly useful when you want to match the quantity to your storage space and rate of consumption.

Oak and Birch Log Crates

The Oak & Birch Kiln Dried Log Crate combines two hardwood species in one supply.

Birch provides the readily burning, lively side of the mix, while denser oak is well suited to maintaining a steadier fire once it is established. This crate is available in three sizes, including an Extra Large option for frequent firewood users.

Ash and Oak Log Crates

The Medium Ash & Oak Log Crate combines two established firewood species in a more compact crate format.

Customers searching for a medium crate of oak logs should note that oak is currently supplied as part of an Oak & Birch or Ash & Oak mix rather than as an oak-only crate. The product grid above shows current availability, sizes and prices.

Is a Crate of Logs the Right Format for You?

A crate of kiln dried logs makes most sense when you:

• Burn firewood regularly
• Want to order a substantial supply at once
• Have enough dry, ventilated storage space
• Want to reduce the number of repeat orders made during colder weather
• Can accommodate a palletised delivery at your address
• Prefer logs supplied neatly stacked rather than loose-filled

Because the logs are closely packed inside a wooden crate, the quantity is easier to understand and compare. Buying crated logs can also reduce the amount of individual packaging associated with repeatedly ordering small nets.

If you only light occasional fires, have restricted storage or need to carry the logs through narrow access, smaller bags of logs may be more manageable.

You can also compare crates with kiln dried logs in bulk bags or read the complete guide to kiln dried log packaging options.

Kiln Dried and Ready to Burn

The logs supplied in these crates have been kiln dried to below 20% moisture and are Woodsure Ready to Burn certified.

Reducing excess moisture helps the logs light more readily and means less heat is spent evaporating water from the wood. Compared with wetter firewood, properly kiln dried logs can provide a cleaner, more efficient and more dependable burn.

The standard log specification is:

• Approximate length: 25cm or 9¾ inches
• Approximate diameter: 5–15cm at the widest point
• Natural size tolerance: approximately ±10%
• Moisture content: below 20%
• Certification: Woodsure Ready to Burn
• Packaging: neatly stacked wooden crate supplied on a pallet

Always check the individual product specification before ordering, particularly if your stove or fireplace requires a specific log size.

Check Pallet Access Before Ordering

Kiln dried log crates are delivered to your home on a pallet using a tail-lift vehicle and pallet truck. Delivery is normally kerbside, and the final position of the crate depends on safe vehicle access and a firm, level surface.

A loaded pallet truck cannot normally move across gravel, grass, soft ground, steps or steep slopes. If your road, driveway or delivery area has restricted access, check the full log delivery information before placing your order.

Weekday delivery is free to most mainland UK addresses, and you can choose an available delivery date during checkout. Saturday delivery is available for an additional charge.

You do not normally need to be at home to accept delivery, provided the crate can be safely left on private property. Any requested placement remains subject to suitable access, ground conditions and the driver’s assessment on arrival.

Plan Your Storage Before Delivery

A Medium crate has a footprint of approximately 115 × 108cm, while the Large and Extra Large options use approximately the same ground space but increase in height.

Measure your intended storage area before choosing a crate. Remember to allow enough room to access and remove the logs safely.

A weather-resistant crate topper is supplied with the current crate products, but your firewood should still be protected from persistent rain and kept somewhere dry and well ventilated. Keeping the logs away from wet ground and allowing air to circulate will help preserve their low moisture content.
