We fully cure your firewood on-site, by heat treating it in our kiln. The result is firewood with a Moisture Content (MC) averaging 5%, or about 75% less internal water content than conventionally seasoned wood. This produces very satisfying campfires, and excellent home heating in wood stoves.

Since water doesn’t burn, it has to be evaporated out of the log by the existing fire heat. This is heat that you don’t “get”. Instead, this heat is absorbed by the excess water, converted into hot water vapour, and exhausted up and out your chimney stack.

Because WoodBox firewood delivers a more complete combustion, the fires you light burn robustly, and tend not to smolder. This performance feature significantly reduces potential creosote accumulation in your chimney. It also makes for more enjoyable outdoor fires with far less smoke exposure.

Our kiln treatment also minimizess the spitting and sparking that is commonly experienced with burning firewood. Our Birch hardwood burns pristinely, and our Jack Pine and Tamarack softwoods burn excellent without throwing hot sparks or coals…but you still get that satisfying crackle.

Once your firewood has been cut, split, and given The WoodBox Special Treatment, it then goes into our storage facility. We keep our finished product pristine and fire-ready, until it is picked up or delivered to you.
