Kiln-dried logs delivered in Martley
Martley is a rural Worcestershire village where the right firewood delivery format can be just as important as the logs themselves. A property with a wide drive and a large log store may be able to accept a bulk bag or tipper load, while a home with a narrow entrance, soft verge, steep drive or limited storage may be better suited to smaller barrow bags.
Lovington Logs offers several quantities so customers can choose according to their circumstances:
- Barrow bag: approximately 0.2m³
- Bulk bag: approximately 0.65m³
- Tipper load: approximately 2.5m³
Before ordering, consider how frequently you use your stove, how much dry storage you have and where the firewood can safely be unloaded. A larger quantity can reduce the need to reorder frequently, but only when there is enough suitable access and covered storage.
Martley is the central focus of this delivery page. Customers in nearby WR6 communities can find broader information on our WR6 firewood delivery page, including guidance for the surrounding rural area.
Choosing the right quantity of logs
Barrow bags: approximately 0.2m³
Barrow bags are the smallest of the three principal delivery options. They can be useful for occasional stove users, customers trying the logs for the first time or households with limited storage.
Their smaller size can also make them a practical choice where the route from the delivery point to the log store is restricted. However, customers should not assume that a barrow bag can be taken through every gate, passage or garden. Width, surface condition, slopes, steps and other obstacles all affect what is practical.
A barrow bag may suit you if:
- You burn logs occasionally
- Your covered storage space is limited
- Access is narrower or more complicated
- You prefer receiving firewood in smaller quantities
- You want a manageable supply rather than a large seasonal load
Bulk bags: approximately 0.65m³
A bulk bag contains more than three times the approximate volume of a 0.2m³ barrow bag. It is a useful middle option for regular domestic stove use, provided the property has a suitable unloading position and enough dry storage.
Bulk bags generally suit homes where the bag can be placed on, or close to, a suitable driveway or hardstanding. Placement will depend on the delivery location and practical access, so customers should plan where the bag can be left before ordering.
A bulk bag may be appropriate if:
- Your wood burner is used regularly
- You have a suitable driveway or unloading area
- You have sufficient covered, ventilated storage
- You want fewer deliveries than smaller bags would require
- You can move the logs from the unloading point to your store
Tipper loads: approximately 2.5m³
A tipper load is a substantial loose quantity intended for households with heavier firewood consumption, generous storage and suitable vehicle access. The logs are tipped loose rather than supplied inside a bag.
Loose loads require more preparation. There needs to be enough safe space for the delivery vehicle and for the logs to be tipped without blocking a road, pavement, shared drive, gateway or access needed by another person.
The unloading area should ideally be close to the final log store, but customers must expect to move and stack the logs after delivery. A 2.5m³ load is not suitable simply because it offers the greatest volume; the access, unloading space and storage must all be appropriate.
Bagged firewood or a loose tipper load?
Bagged logs provide a contained delivery unit. This can help keep the order together while the logs are moved into storage. Barrow bags are approximately 0.2m³, while bulk bags are approximately 0.65m³.
A tipper load contains approximately 2.5m³ and is delivered loose. It can suit higher-volume users but needs substantially more unloading and storage space.
The key difference is not only quantity:
| Format | Approximate volume | Usually best suited to |
|---|---|---|
| Barrow bag | 0.2m³ | Smaller orders, limited storage or more restricted access |
| Bulk bag | 0.65m³ | Regular stove use with suitable driveway access |
| Tipper load | 2.5m³ | Heavy use, large stores and suitable vehicle/unloading space |
These volumes describe the approximate capacity of each delivery format. They should not be used as an exact comparison of log count or burn time. How long an order lasts depends on the appliance, heat setting, property, weather, frequency of use and the way the fire is operated.
Rural delivery access checklist
Rural properties around Martley can vary considerably. Some have straightforward hard-surfaced drives, while others are reached by narrow lanes, tight gateways, steep approaches or tracks affected by wet weather.
Before placing your order, check the following:
- Entrance width: Make sure gates, posts, walls and parked vehicles do not restrict the entrance.
- Overhead clearance: Look for low branches, cables, arches or other overhead obstructions.
- Road and track condition: Consider whether the approach is firm, stable and suitable for a delivery vehicle.
- Turning space: Check whether there is room to manoeuvre without crossing soft ground.
- Surface strength: Avoid relying on lawns, soft verges, septic tank areas or weak paving.
- Slopes and cambers: Steep, uneven or slippery ground may affect safe access.
- Unloading position: Choose a location that will not obstruct the highway, neighbours or essential access.
- Route to storage: Think about the distance, steps and surfaces between the unloading point and your log store.
- Obstructions: Move vehicles, trailers, bins and equipment before delivery where possible.
- Special circumstances: Provide clear access information when ordering rather than assuming every vehicle can reach the preferred unloading point.
Completing these checks does not guarantee that a particular position can be reached. The final unloading location must remain safe and practical at the time of delivery.
Storing kiln-dried logs correctly
Kiln-dried logs should be protected after delivery so they remain ready to burn. A good log store keeps rain off the top while allowing air to circulate around the sides.
Stack the logs above ground level on a firm base, pallet or raised floor. Avoid placing them directly onto soil, where they can absorb ground moisture. Leave ventilation around the stack and avoid sealing firewood inside an airtight sheet, container or unventilated shed.
A suitable store should:
- Have a weather-resistant roof
- Allow airflow around the logs
- Keep the stack raised from damp ground
- Be reasonably close to the house without obstructing access
- Have enough capacity for the quantity ordered
- Allow older stock to be used before newer deliveries
If the logs become wet on the surface during handling or delivery, place them in a ventilated covered store and allow the surface moisture to dry before use.
