Weight changes with moisture
A heavier load is not necessarily better value if it contains wetter wood. Compare the supplier’s moisture information alongside weight, species and log dimensions.
Local delivery and nationwide alternatives
Logs for sale near you, delivered
Start with local firewood suppliers, where delivery distances and minimum orders may be lower. If nearby stock is limited, compare kiln-dried logs supplied in boxes, bulk bags or crates for delivery across the UK.
Our directory currently includes 239 suppliers tagged for delivery and 221 listing kiln-dried firewood. Always confirm current coverage and stock directly.

Compare the quantity before the price
A “bulk bag”, “tonne bag” and crate can hold very different amounts. Wood can also be described by weight, loose-filled volume or stacked volume. Those figures are not interchangeable, so ask for the actual measurement used.
| Delivery format | Usually suits | What to verify |
|---|---|---|
| Nets or small bags | Occasional fires and testing a supplier | Net weight, number of logs and collection versus delivery cost |
| Cardboard boxes | Clean storage and nationwide parcel delivery | Delivered weight, log length and number of boxes |
| Bulk or builder’s bags | Regular stove use with accessible storage | Actual weight or loose-filled volume; bag names are not standard measures |
| Crates or pallets | Seasonal stock-ups and frequent burning | Stacked volume, kerbside restrictions and pallet-truck access |
| Loose tipped loads | Local buyers with a large, prepared log store | Loose volume, vehicle access and exactly where the load will be tipped |
Plan the unloading point
Tipped loads, crane bags and pallet deliveries need different access. Tell the supplier about narrow entrances, gravel, slopes, steps and overhead obstructions.
Prepare dry storage
Keep logs raised off the ground, sheltered from direct rain and ventilated. A large order is poor value if it has to sit wrapped or exposed after delivery.
Local tipped or bagged delivery
Local suppliers may offer nets, builders’ bags or loose loads. Ask where the logs will be unloaded and whether stacking is available; a tipped load and a neatly stacked cubic metre are not directly comparable quantities.

Boxes are easier to carry and suit occasional use. Bulk bags and crates usually suit regular burners with dry storage and suitable vehicle access. Check the delivered quantity before comparing headline prices.

Log delivery questions
What is usually the cheapest way to buy logs?
Larger local loads can reduce packaging and transport cost per unit, but only when the quantities are genuinely comparable. Compare delivered weight or volume, moisture information and usable log size—not the bag name or headline price alone.
How much does a delivery of logs cost?
There is no reliable UK-wide figure. The final price depends on quantity, species, moisture, distance, delivery method and access. Ask whether delivery and VAT are included, and whether your postcode attracts a surcharge.
Should I buy locally or order logs online?
Try local suppliers first when you want a tipped load, flexible quantity or repeat deliveries. Nationwide boxes and pallets are useful when local stock is limited or you want a clearly specified packaged product.
Can a pallet be delivered onto gravel or a sloping drive?
Often not. Standard pallet deliveries commonly require a firm, level surface and may be kerbside only. Confirm access with the seller before ordering; requirements vary by carrier.
