October Is Here – Is Your Log Store Ready for Winter?
October is here… and if you haven’t thought about your winter logs yet, now is definitely the time! 🔥🍂
The evenings are getting darker, temperatures are starting to drop, and before we know it, the first proper cold snap will be here.
At Woodstock UK, we’ve been busy getting ready for the months ahead, making sure we have plenty of high-quality kiln dried hardwood logs ready to keep your home, stove, fire pit or outdoor oven going through the colder months.
And our advice is simple:
Don’t wait until you’re down to your last few logs before ordering.
🔥 Get stocked up before the winter rush
Every year, there’s a point where everyone suddenly remembers they need logs!
The first really cold weekend arrives, the fire goes on, and suddenly everyone wants a delivery.
That’s when demand starts to increase, so getting your logs ordered early means one less thing to worry about.
We can take pre-orders, and next-day delivery is available on many orders, subject to location and availability.
We deliver 7 days a week, and being based in Crewe means we regularly deliver throughout Cheshire and the surrounding areas, as well as sending orders nationwide.
And remember:
🚚 FREE NATIONWIDE DELIVERY OVER £100
So there’s no need to wait for the weather to turn freezing before getting prepared.
🪵 Not all bulk bags are the same!
This is something we really want customers to think about when comparing prices this autumn.
You might see another business advertising logs for less than us and think, “That’s a bargain!”
But before comparing the price, check what size bag you are actually buying.
At Woodstock UK, our bulk bags measure approximately:
85cm × 85cm × 85cm
However, some businesses are selling bags as small as:
65cm × 65cm × 65cm
That is a BIG difference in bag dimensions.
So when you're comparing prices, don't just compare the £££ figure.
Compare the bag size too.
Otherwise, you could be comparing a much smaller load with a Woodstock UK bulk bag and thinking you're getting a like-for-like deal when you're not.
It's a bit like comparing apples with oranges… or in this case, 85cm bags with 65cm bags! 😂
We'd always encourage customers to ask:
What size is the bag?
How much wood am I actually getting?
What type of logs are they?
Are they kiln dried?
Can I see reviews?
Is there a proper website?
Is there a telephone number?
Who am I actually buying from?
CHECK WHAT SIZE BAGS YOU ARE BUYING.
It really does matter.
🌳 Quality kiln dried hardwood logs
Our logs are high-quality kiln dried hardwood, generally around 8–10 inches in length, making them suitable for a wide range of wood burners, stoves and open fires.
Kiln dried logs are a great choice because they're dried to a much lower moisture content than traditionally seasoned logs.
That means they're ready to burn and are designed to give you a good, reliable burn when used correctly in a suitable appliance.
If you haven't read our previous article about why kiln dried logs are worth considering, it's well worth a look before you buy your winter supply.
💷 Open and honest pricing
One thing we've always tried to do at Woodstock UK is keep our pricing open and honest.
We don't believe customers should have to send a message saying:
“How much?”
…only to be given a price privately.
NO INBOX FOR A PRICE!
Our prices are there for everyone to see.
Our current prices include:
🔥 Bulk bag kiln dried hardwood logs – £120
🔥 Barrow bag – £60
🔥 Box of logs – £20

🍕 Logs aren't just for winter!
Something we've been saying throughout the summer is that logs aren't just a winter product.
Kiln dried hardwood logs are also great for:
🍕 Pizza ovens
🔥 Fire pits
🍖 BBQs
🌳 Outdoor cooking
So if you've still got a few outdoor evenings planned, don't pack everything away just yet!
🍂 September reminded us that winter is coming…
September is always that month where you start noticing the change.
The evenings become noticeably shorter, the mornings feel cooler and suddenly the summer feels like it's disappeared almost overnight.
It's also the perfect time to start looking at your winter fuel supply.
October takes that one step further.
This is when we'd recommend getting serious about your winter preparations.
Check your log store.
How much have you actually got?
Not how much you think you've got.
Not how much you hope will last.
Actually check it.
Because there is nothing worse than reaching for the last couple of logs on a freezing January evening and realising you've got none left!
🏠 Buy from someone you can actually contact
We know there are lots of places to buy logs these days.
Some are established businesses, some are smaller businesses and some sellers appear seasonally.
We're not here to tell you where you should buy your logs.
But we would always recommend doing a few simple checks before handing over your money.
Look for:
✔️ A proper website
✔️ Clear prices
✔️ Genuine reviews
✔️ A telephone number
✔️ Clear delivery information
✔️ The size of the bags you're buying
✔️ Details about the actual product
And most importantly, make sure you're comparing like for like.
A cheaper price doesn't necessarily mean you're getting more wood.
Check the bag size.
🔥 Ready for winter?
October is the perfect time to get organised.
Don't wait for the first frost.
Don't wait for the first snow.
And definitely don't wait until your log store is empty!
Get your winter supply sorted now and enjoy that lovely feeling of knowing you've got the fuel ready when you need it.
