The South Bucks Tree Surgeons Difference
At South Bucks Tree Surgeons, we don't just sell firewood – we craft it with expertise gained from over 100 years of combined timber knowledge. Our approach sets us apart from typical firewood suppliers in several important ways.
From Tree Surgery to Your Fireside: A Sustainable Journey
Our firewood comes directly from our professional tree surgery operations across Buckinghamshire and Oxfordshire. Many trees we work with have been removed due to essential safety concerns or disease. This means we're giving these beautiful hardwoods a second life rather than letting them go to waste.
Because there's no middleman in our process, we significantly reduce haulage and our carbon footprint. When we fell a tree, it travels straight to our sustainable recycling facility in Towersey – that's it. You know exactly where your firewood comes from and the journey it takes to reach you.
Hand-Cut Quality You Can See and Feel
Here's where we’re distinct from the industry standard: we don't use industrial firewood processors. While most suppliers rely on machinery to rapidly process woodland timber, we cut every single log by hand.
Why does this matter? It allows our timber specialists to quality-check each piece, ensuring only the finest logs make it to your fire.
Premium Hardwood Species for Superior Burning
Our dedicated team carefully selects only high-quality burnable hardwood species, including:
Oak – Dense and long-burning with excellent heat output
Ash – Low moisture content and easy to split
Beech – Burns steadily with minimal sparking
Cherry – Pleasant aroma with good heat
Walnut – Excellent heat and attractive flame
Each species offers unique burning characteristics, and our mixed hardwood loads give you the best of all worlds.
The Art of Seasoning: Barn-Dried to Perfection
Moisture content is everything when it comes to firewood performance. Wet logs produce excessive smoke, poor heat output, and dangerous creosote buildup in your chimney.
Our logs undergo a meticulous drying process in our large covered open-air barns:
Summer Season Care:
Logs are regularly turned to maximize airflow exposure
Wood is moved into direct sunshine during warm, dry weather
Moisture content is carefully monitored throughout
The result? By the time winter arrives, our firewood is properly seasoned below 20% moisture content and ready to burn immediately. You'll notice the difference from the first log you light.
Flexible Quantities for Every Need
Whether you're stocking up for winter or running a small independent business, we have you covered:
Residential customers: 1-4 cubic metres (One cubic metre equals a very full builder's bag. We provide 1 cubic meter, so you get approximately 20% more logs!)
Wholesale buyers: Larger quantities available on request
Kindling: Barn-dried kindling bags for easy fire lighting
As registered firewood wholesalers, we can accommodate orders of all sizes.
