Why Quality Firewood Matters This Winter
When it comes to keeping your home cozy and warm this winter, the quality of your firewood makes all the difference. Poor-quality wood can be damp and undersized, leaving you with more smoke and ash than heat. At Manna Gum Building And Garden Supplies, we've got you covered with top-tier firewood for Kilsyth residents.
Premium Yellow Box Firewood
Yellow box is a dense, high-grade firewood that burns robustly in both open fires and combustion heaters. It’s your go-to choice for a strong, long-lasting fire.
Superior Redgum Firewood
Known for its delightful scent, redgum offers a hotter burn with a lower flame, compared to standard firewood. This not only keeps your home warmer for longer but also produces less smoke and ash, making cleanup a breeze.
All our firewood is sustainably sourced from local Victorian farmers and transported directly to our yard in Kilsyth.

Why Is Redgum Firewood So Popular?
Redgum firewood stands out for its unique qualities, making it a favorite among homeowners and firewood enthusiasts. Here’s why:
- Lower Flame, Higher Heat: Redgum produces a lower flame while delivering higher heat, resulting in less smoke compared to other types of wood. This means you can enjoy a cozy fire without the nuisance of excess smoke.
- Long-Lasting Burn: Because it burns hotter without high flames, Redgum firewood lasts longer. This makes it an ideal choice for indoor open fireplaces, as it provides consistent warmth and reduces the frequency of refueling.
- Minimal Ash Residue: One of the standout benefits of Redgum is that it leaves behind very little ash. This means less cleanup for you, making it a convenient option for indoor use.
- Pleasant Aroma: When burned, Redgum releases a pleasant scent, adding an extra layer of enjoyment to your indoor fires. Its lovely aroma enhances the ambiance, making it a delightful choice for any home.
For those seeking an efficient, long-lasting, and pleasant-scented firewood, Redgum is an excellent choice.
How Much Firewood Do I Need?
This depends on the size of the space you want to heat. But we typically recommend buying between 3 and 9 cubic metres of firewood to see you through winter.
For example, a small open fireplace in a typical Kilsyth lounge room will burn around 1 cubic meter of firewood a month. If you keep that fire going 24 hours a day you’ll need around 2 cubic meters.
If you use wood outside for a BBQ or fire pit too, then you’ll need more.
Firewood improves with age as long as it’s kept dry. So the more you buy now, the better your fire will be as winter goes on. But it’s best to get in early—you’ll be hard-pressed to find a quality firewood supply in the middle of winter.
Is It Worth Getting Delivery?
We deliver the firewood to your Kilsyth home in one of our trucks. Firewood is heavy and takes up a lot of room. To get a couple of cubic meters of firewood delivered to your home will save you an awful lot of work and protect your vehicle. If you have a Ute or big trailer though, feel free to come down to our site at 1170 Burwood Highway, Upper Ferntree Gully and pick up as much as you wish.
How To Store Your Kilsyth Firewood
Before you store your firewood, always make sure it’s dry. You don’t want any more than 25% moisture content, at a maximum. At Manna Gum all our wood is delivered to you under the 25% moisture threshold, dry and ready to burn.
Store your firewood at least 1.5 metres from the foundation of your home.
Keep it off the ground. Don’t stack your wood against a wooden building, or between trees. Keep your main firewood stack outside, and covered, but preferably able to be hit by sunlight. We recommend covering it with a tarpaulin. Only bring firewood inside that you need to burn for the next two days. When inside, store your firewood off the floor on a steel rack
DO NOT spray it with insecticide. This is flammable, and could flare up when you burn it.
Should I Buy Kindling?
Good kindling is crucial to setting your fire. It helps keep the fire’s energy going so that it warms, ignites, and burns the medium-sized wood, which in turn sets alight your larger pieces of wood. Skipping the kindling results in your fire not heating as fast, so it won’t burn your larger logs.
We recommend picking up 1-2 bags of kindling with every firewood order.
How to Set Your Kindling
1. Scrunch up some newspaper or fire lighters and put it in your fireplace
2. Place 3 handfuls of small twigs on top of that
3. Place several pieces of kindling over the top of the twigs
4. Add 1 or 2 smaller logs standing against kindling in a pyramid shape
You’ll be able to start your fire effortlessly, in just minutes. Every time.
What Does Quality Firewood Cost?
When it comes to the price of firewood, it depends on the quality of the wood, and its availability. Don’t waste your money on buying bags of firewood from the service station, or your local hardware store. You need to go for quality and quantity
