DELIVERY

Next-Day Delivery Included

All maxi bags are delivered next working day when ordered before 2pm.

Courier Delivery

Maxi bags are shipped via DHL and delivered on a standard courier van (Ford Transit / Mercedes Sprinter size). Once dispatched, you’ll receive tracking from DHL, usually on the day of delivery, with a 1-hour delivery window. We also send your tracking details ourselves, typically in the evening (around 4pm) once the parcel has entered the DHL network.

Packaging

Each woven sack of logs is packed inside a strong double-wall cardboard box, sealed for transit so it can move safely through the courier network. The outer box is shower-resistant. Even if the box gets damaged, the logs remain protected inside the woven sack.

Doorstep Delivery & Safe Place

If you are not home, delivery will only be made if you have selected a safe place or neighbour via the DHL tracking link. These options can be set once tracking is received, just like a standard courier delivery. If no option is selected and delivery cannot be made, the parcel will be reattempted.

Delivery Window

Deliveries operate Monday–Friday. Weekend delivery can occasionally happen (especially for Friday dispatches), but is not guaranteed.

 

Please note:
Orders of multiple maxi bags may arrive separately, sometimes on different vans, and at different times throughout the day. This is normal for courier deliveries and helps avoid additional delivery charges.

DESCRIPTION

Kiln-Dried Alder Logs

Our kiln-dried Alder logs are supplied in a convenient 60L maxi bag, offering clean, reliable heat with a moisture content below 20%. Alder lights quickly and produces a lively, steady flame, making it ideal for everyday fires in log burners, multi-fuel stoves, chimineas, and fire pits. Being Ready to Burn certified, it delivers consistent performance with a noticeably cleaner burn than seasoned wood.

Alder is a fast-lighting hardwood that sits between Birch and Oak in burn characteristics. It ignites more easily than Oak but burns more steadily than Birch, making it a popular choice for customers who want an easy start without sacrificing heat. It burns cleanly, leaves minimal residue, and supports efficient combustion with reduced soot build-up.

Each maxi bag contains 100% pure Alder with no mixing. The 60L bag size is easy to handle, store, and use — ideal if you want high-quality firewood without the bulk of a crate. Delivered ready to burn, so you can use it straight away.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is alder good firewood for log burners?

Yes — alder is an excellent hardwood for log burners when kiln-dried. It lights quickly, produces strong early heat and gives a bright flame, making it ideal for everyday use or as a fire starter.

How fast does alder firewood burn?

Alder burns faster than dense hardwoods like oak or hornbeam. It provides quick, high heat but won’t last as long per log, making it ideal for shorter fires or topping up during the day.

Is oak better than alder for burning?

Oak burns longer due to its higher density, while alder burns faster but gets up to temperature more quickly. Alder is ideal for quick, hot burns or fire starting, whereas oak is better for long, slow heat.

Is alder a hardwood or softwood?

Alder is a hardwood, but it’s one of the lighter varieties. It sits between softwood and dense hardwoods in terms of burn time — but produces a cleaner, hotter flame than typical softwoods.

Is alder firewood right for my stove?

Most modern stoves handle alder very well. It’s particularly good for users who burn frequently and prefer responsive, easy-to-control heat without waiting long for the fire to build.

How are alder bags delivered, and how fast is delivery?

Alder maxi bags are delivered via DHL parcel service. Orders placed before the cut-off time are typically dispatched the same working day and delivered the next working day, with full tracking provided. Parcels are delivered to your address in the same way as a standard courier delivery.
