About Our Firewood
We produce and deliver the finest firewood on Long Island. The quality starts from the very beginning and follows through right until the wood is delivered to you.
Firewood is Our Year Round Business
L.I. Firewood has a large repeat customer base due to the fact that we take pride in our product and service. We produce & sell firewood 365 days a year (well, maybe more like 360 days). Low quality firewood usually comes from part time firewood retailers looking to take advantage of a seasonal market. Since our only business is selling firewood we put 100% of our efforts into producing the best product. Landscapers, tree services, nurseries & others cannot match the knowledge and experience we have here at L.I. Firewood.
Timber Professionally Harvested
All of our firewood comes from professional producers in the timber industry. The logs are chosen for species, size and quality to insure only the best firewood is produced. We do not use random timber from tree services, excavators or landscapers. Uniform timbers are the first step to producing the highest quality firewood on Long Island.
State of the Art Processing
High tech equipment is essential to producing uniform firewood. Only the most modern equipment can consistently produce uniform firewood. L.I. Firewood takes pride in providing uniform lengths and achieving precise splitting that results in the perfect firewood. Firewood that is too large will not dry correctly and will burn incomplete in your fireplace or stove.
Clean Wood
Our firewood is always kept clean throughout processing by utilizing conveyors and keeping split firewood on clean surfaces. Quality firewood should never come in contact with dirt or mud once it has been split. Our wood is kept free of dirt during all phases of processing and storage.
Kiln Drying
Only the most efficient commercial lumber kilns are capable of removing the large content of water that is contained in fresh cut wood. Firewood kilns reach temperatures up to 200 degrees and remove tons of water that would take a year or longer to remove drying outdoors. Removing the water reduces the moisture content from over 50% to an optimal 15 to 20% (true "seasoned" firewood is 30%). Once the wood has reached an internal temperature of 160 degrees it receives the USDA Certification that it is bug free and it is then ready for distribution to the most discriminating markets.
Storing Kiln
Dried Firewood Indoors
Once the firewood is kiln dried it is stored indoors with pleny of air flow and light. The firewood remains indoors until packaged and delivered to you.
***** We strongly suggest you keep your kiln dried firewood indoors with good airflow and light. *****
If your wood is to be stored outdoors there should be a roof over the wood and the wood should be raised off the ground. If you must tarp your firewood be sure not to cover the sides. Only the top need be covered from moisture so the sides can continue to be exposed to sun light & air flow.
We Can Stack
Your Firewood
The best way to store any firewood is stacked in a single row and off the ground with plenty of airflow. We'll be happy to stack your firewood upon delivery. Other companies usually don't offer stacking because they don't sell true quantities of firewood. We guarantee your rack will be full with the true quantity you ordered.
Pictured on the right is a stacking we did in Nissequogue. This is a true 1/2 cord of Kiln Dried Ash that measures 64 cubic feet. It is perfectly stored and will remain premium throughout the season.
We're more than happy to give you pointers on how and where to store your Kiln Dried firewood.
