Fall has arrived in New England, and cooler nights are already reminding us that winter is not far behind. If you heat your home with wood, use a fireplace throughout the colder months, or simply enjoy having a fire when temperatures drop, now is the time to make sure your firewood supply is ready. Waiting until the first stretch of freezing weather to look for firewood can leave you competing with everyone else who waited. Stocking up now means your wood is delivered, stored, and ready before winter demand arrives.
At Anderson Timber Harvesting, we provide quality firewood for customers throughout Massachusetts and the surrounding region. Whether you are looking for kiln dried firewood, seasoned firewood, or green firewood for future use, buying now gives you the opportunity to prepare before the heating season gets into full swing. The type of firewood you burn matters. Wood with a lower moisture content is easier to ignite and produces more usable heat because less energy is spent burning away moisture. Kiln dried firewood is an excellent option for homeowners who want wood that is ready to burn. It produces strong heat with less smoke and helps reduce the amount of creosote created during burning.
Seasoned firewood is another popular choice for wood stoves and fireplaces. Properly seasoned wood offers dependable heat and better burning performance than wood containing excessive moisture. For homeowners planning farther ahead, green firewood can also be purchased and properly stored while it continues to season. September is also a good time to take a realistic look at how much firewood you will need. Think about how frequently you used your wood stove or fireplace last winter. If wood is a primary heating source, securing an adequate supply before temperatures fall can save you from trying to find additional firewood during the busiest part of the season.
Proper storage is just as important as choosing quality firewood. Keep your firewood elevated from the ground and protected from rain and snow while allowing adequate airflow around the stack. Taking a little time to prepare your storage area now can help keep your firewood in good condition throughout fall and winter. For more than four decades, Anderson Timber Harvesting has served New England customers from Westminster, Massachusetts.
