Reliable firewood delivery in Cambridge
Our bulk kiln-dried wood offcuts are a no-fuss option for Cambridge households — lifestyle blocks, generational homes, the old villas off Victoria Street, the new builds out toward Leamington. Untreated NZ pine, kiln-dried to a low moisture content, dropped in 5m³ or 8m³ loads straight to your driveway.
The wood comes from our own Ōtorohanga sawmill, just down the road. No middlemen, no long freight runs, no chemicals trucked in. Just dry pine that lights first try and burns hot through a long winter evening.

The modern alternative — Wood Fire Pucks
If you're tired of stacking firewood every season or chasing dry wood when winter hits, our weekly puck subscription is the smarter switch. Wood fire pucks are compressed pine blocks — the same untreated NZ pine that goes into our firewood, just pressed under huge pressure into clean, stackable blocks.
They burn three times hotter than firewood, take a third of the storage space, and arrive at your Cambridge door every Monday morning. Plans start at $36/week. Pause or cancel anytime.

Why Cambridge households are switching to pucks
-
Lights every time — Compressed pine holds no moisture. Always dry, always ready.
-
Cleaner home — Less ash, no bark, no spiders falling out of the basket.
-
Less storage — A winter's supply fits in 1/3 the space of firewood. Handy for town houses with smaller sheds.
-
No chopping or stacking — Pucks arrive at your door already pressed and ready to burn.

Common questions about firewood in Cambridge
Do you deliver firewood to lifestyle blocks outside Cambridge?
Yes — we deliver across the Cambridge district, including lifestyle blocks toward Leamington, Hautapu, Karapiro, and surrounding rural addresses. Free local delivery.
How is kiln-dried firewood different from seasoned firewood?
Kiln-dried firewood is dried in a controlled environment to a much lower moisture content than seasoned firewood. The result: lights faster, burns hotter, less creosote in the chimney, less smoke into the neighbour's yard.
Can I switch between pucks and bulk firewood?
Easily. A lot of Cambridge customers run a weekly puck subscription for everyday evenings, plus an annual bulk firewood order to stock the shed for big-weekend fires.
What's the smallest order you'll deliver?
Subscriptions start at a 3-box weekly plan ($36/week). Bulk firewood starts at 5m³.
