When to buy firewood: Why summer is the ideal time to stock up

At Simpson Arboriculture, we sell kiln-dried firewood logs all through the year. But when it comes to buying them, many people tend to wait until the colder months to make their purchase. However, waiting until autumn and winter to buy firewood might not be your best option. Here are a few reasons why:

  1. Stock Availability

During the winter months, suppliers such as Simpson Arboriculture can quickly run low on stock due to high demand. By purchasing your logs in the summer, you can ensure that you have enough stock for the entire autumn and winter seasons. This means you won’t have to worry about running out of logs or making multiple trips to a store during the colder months. This can be an expensive endeavour, not to mention stressful as the weather turns colder.

2. Convenience

Buying firewood in the summer is also more convenient. Purchasing and storing your firewood before the colder months arrive makes it easier to keep your home warm and cosy during the winter. By planning ahead and buying firewood in the summer, you can avoid the last-minute rush and enjoy the winter season without worrying about running out of firewood. Isn’t it much more preferable to stack and organise your logs before the freezing temperatures arrive?

3. Shorter wait times

This is a great reason to stock up early! At Simpson Arboriculture, we have many local customers in Lincolnshire who all need firewood for when the weather turns colder. While this is great news for us, it does mean that our wait times during the winter months can be up to 3 or 4 weeks. During the summer months however, we often have logs dry and ready for delivery.

4. Summer uses for firewood

Let’s not forget, there are still plenty of ways to use logs during the summer. One common use is for outdoor fire pits or bonfires during summer evenings. They can also be used for cooking or grilling, adding a delicious smoky flavour to your food. In addition, firewood can be used for camping trips or outdoor events, providing warmth and ambiance on cool summer nights. By choosing a year round firewood supplier such as Simpson Arboriculture, you can have it on hand for all of your summer needs.
