Nothing here is a starting-from price that changes once you get to checkout; what's shown is what a Basingstoke order actually costs.
Not sure how much to order for Basingstoke? Here's a rough starting point, based on how often you actually light a fire rather than the size of the room it's in.
A rough starting point, not a fixed rule. See our full how much firewood do I need guide for open fires, wood burners, fire pits and pizza ovens in more detail.
Most orders from Basingstoke come from a wood burner household topping up for the season, or a fire pit and pizza oven getting more use once the weather turns. Either way, the bag sizes below are built around real households rather than a single one-size quantity, and you can always call 01252 416123 if you'd rather talk it through than guess.
Four bags of kiln-dried Alder with kindling and firelighters. Our best price for a full log store.
Our seasonal special. Four bags of premium mixed hardwood with kindling and firelighters at an offer price.
Two bags of Oak, two of Alder, plus kindling and firelighters. The season sorted in one delivery.
