Woodshire: Your Guide to Quality Hardwood Logs in the West Midlands

If you’re looking for hardwood logs in the West Midlands, Woodshire is your trusted local supplier. Based in Stourbridge, we’ve been delivering households and businesses sustainable, kiln-dried hardwood logs since 2013. Our logs are carefully sourced, dried, and delivered across the region to ensure you enjoy efficient, clean-burning fires every time.

Who We Are

Founded in September 2013, Woodshire has grown into a reputable and eco-conscious firewood supplier in the West Midlands. Unlike many sellers who import or resell logs, we produce and prepare our own firewood using a custom-built kiln right here in Stourbridge. This process ensures that every dried log is reduced to the ideal moisture level before it reaches your home, making it ready to burn immediately.

Why Choose Our Kiln Dried Firewood?

Premium Quality Firewood

Our kiln dried firewood is sourced from responsibly managed British woodlands and dried to less than 20% moisture content. This guarantees consistent heat output, less smoke, and a long-lasting burn.

Eco-Friendly & Sustainable

We are committed to sustainability and ensure all our mixed hardwood logs are harvested responsibly. By choosing Woodshire, you enjoy the warmth of a real fire while supporting environmentally friendly practices.

Kiln-Dried for Maximum Efficiency

Our kiln-dried hardwood logs ignite easily, burn hotter, and produce minimal ash. Whether you’re lighting a wood burner, open fire, or pizza oven, kiln drying guarantees a superior performance compared to seasoned or freshly cut wood.

Local Delivery Across the West Midlands

We supply hardwood logs across the West Midlands, including Dudley, Wolverhampton, Birmingham, Worcester, Staffordshire, Shropshire, Herefordshire, and Warwickshire. Delivery is free within 10 miles of DY9 7AR, with affordable rates beyond.

Best Types of Hardwood Logs for Firewood

Different hardwoods burn at different rates, so we provide a carefully balanced mixed hardwood selection to suit every home and stove:

• Oak Logs – Dense, long-burning, and ideal for overnight heating.

• Ash Logs – Easy to light with steady heat output and minimal smoke.

• Beech Logs – Burns hot and clean, great for consistent heat.

• Birch Logs – Quick to light with a bright flame, perfect for shorter burns.

All our logs are cut to fit standard stoves and are delivered as a ready-to-burn dried log, ensuring convenience from the moment they arrive.

Why Hardwood is Better Than Softwood

Softwood such as pine may ignite quickly but burns fast, produces more smoke, and leaves more residue. By contrast, hardwood logs are denser, meaning they last longer, provide more heat, and prove more cost-effective over time. For homeowners using wood burners or fireplaces across the West Midlands, hardwood is the preferred and most reliable choice.
