Firewood Te Awamutu
If you need firewood in Te Awamutu, you've found the closest source there is. New Grounds Energy is a Waikato family business based in Ōtorohanga — we mill the pine, press the pucks, and deliver them straight to Te Awamutu doors. No middlemen, no long supply chain, no freight from across the country.
The shortest firewood supply chain in the Waikato
We're a 15-minute drive from Te Awamutu. The pine that ends up in your fireplace started life as a tree milled at our Ōtorohanga sawmill, kiln-dried in our yard, and delivered by a Waikato driver. Everything happens within an hour's drive of your front door.
What that means for you: drier wood, faster delivery, fewer chemicals, lower carbon footprint, and a family business that actually picks up the phone.

Why Te Awamutu households are switching to pucks
-
Lights every time — Pucks are compressed pine. No moisture, no half-lit weekends, no fumbling with damp logs.
-
Cleaner home — Less ash, no bark crumbs, no spiders, no bugs in the kindling basket.
-
Less storage — A whole winter's fuel fits in a corner. Handy for town homes with smaller sheds.
-
No chopping or stacking — The pucks arrive dry, split, and ready to burn.

Common questions about firewood in Te Awamutu
How quickly can you deliver firewood in Te Awamutu?
Faster than anyone else in NZ — we're 15 minutes down the road. Subscriptions start the next Monday after sign-up. Bulk firewood deliveries usually within a few days.
Are you actually based in the Waikato?
Yes. We're a Waikato family business based in Ōtorohanga, owned and run by locals. Not a franchise, not an Auckland operation pretending to be local.
Is kiln-dried firewood worth paying for?
Kiln-dried firewood holds far less moisture than air-seasoned firewood. That means it lights first try, burns hotter, and produces less creosote in your chimney.
Can I drop in and pick up firewood?
Subscriptions are delivery-only. For bulk firewood pickups from our Ōtorohanga yard, get in touch and we'll sort it.
