Location & Directions

What to Expect When You Visit

When you visit Dave’s Logging & Firewood, you’ll typically find neatly stacked rows of seasoned hardwood organized by species and cut length. The wood should feel relatively light for its size, have visible cracks on the ends, and produce a sharp crack when two pieces are knocked together – all signs of proper seasoning that ensures clean, efficient burning.

Dave or his team will help you determine how much wood you need based on your heating setup and usage, whether you’re looking for a single face cord for weekend fires or multiple full cords for primary heating. They can also explain the BTU differences between oak and maple, help you understand cord measurements, and arrange convenient delivery and stacking services to your Plainfield area home.

Products & Materials

Dave’s Logging & Firewood specializes in premium Vermont hardwoods including oak, maple, hickory, and cherry, all properly seasoned to 20% moisture content or less for optimal burning. Our firewood is available split to standard 16-inch lengths perfect for most wood stoves and fireplaces, or we can custom cut to your specifications for larger outdoor furnaces or unique heating systems.

Kindling bundles and fatwood fire starters are available for easy lighting, while our premium oak and hickory selections offer the highest BTU output for serious heating applications. All wood is cut fresh from local Vermont forests and seasoned in our yards for consistent quality and performance.

Serving the Plainfield, Vermont Area

Plainfield, Vermont’s location in the heart of the Green Mountains provides access to some of New England’s finest hardwood forests, where sugar maples, red oak, and hickory trees thrive in the region’s climate. The area’s long tradition of sustainable logging and wood heating means local suppliers like Dave’s understand the importance of proper seasoning, species selection, and the timing needed to deliver firewood that meets Vermont’s demanding winter heating requirements.

Tips for First-Time Buyers

• Ask to see a freshly split piece – properly seasoned wood will have visible cracks and feel lighter than green wood
• Knock two pieces together – seasoned wood produces a sharp crack rather than a dull thud
• Order firewood in spring or early summer for best selection and delivery scheduling
• Understand the difference between a full cord (128 cubic feet) and a face cord (typically 1/3 of a cord)
• Ask about delivery and stacking services to save time and ensure proper storage
• Consider mixing species – oak for overnight burns, maple for quick heat, cherry for pleasant aroma
