Tips for First-Time Buyers

• Learn to identify seasoned wood by looking for cracks in the end grain, lighter weight, and a hollow sound when two pieces are knocked together
• Inquire about delivery and stacking services if you need help moving and organizing larger quantities
• Order early in the season (late summer/early fall) for best selection and pricing before peak demand
• Ask about mixing species – combining fast-lighting maple with long-burning oak creates ideal fire management
