Ignition Firewood

History

Initially starting off with only an axe, we have moved on in 5 years to become a commercial supplier to the Auckland and Franklin markets. We have moved from a small farm in Clevedon, to a commercial yard 2 minutes from the motorway. We strive to provide the best wood, at a competitive price with a pain free ordering process.

Firewood Deliveries

We offer delivery Auckland wide with a minimum delivery of 2 cubic meters. Our delivery truck can hold up to 6 cubic meters and is agile enough to manoeuvre your driveway. As our yard is based in Drury, South Auckland; deliveries over 20km from Drury may incur a delivery fee.

For a specific delivery quote simply select your firewood type and proceed to the checkout, this will give you an accurate price based on your distance from our yard.

Hotmix

Our hotmix is a combination of hard, slow burning wood such as gum and soft fast burning wood such as pine. It may also contain oak, macrocarpa, poplar, tea tree and black wattle. It is popular as it provides fast starting and long burning firewood. Hotmix is our most common firewood supplied to Auckland homes.

Macrocarpa (Cupressus Macrocarpa)

Macrocarpa is a common firewood in New Zealand due to its medium heat output and ease to ignite. However, if you have a open fire and dislike sparks and ‘popping’ then this wood isn’t for you.

$140 per cubic meter

Gum (Eucalyptus)

Gum is a hardwood and therefore is long and hot burning, we recommend starting the fire with a soft wood such as pine. Gum is great if you like filling up the fire box and relaxing, as the wood will take so long to burn down.

$150 per cubic meter

Black Wattle (Acacia)

Native to Australia, Black Wattle is a excellent firewood with a heat output similar to Gum. We recommend buying pine soft blocks in addition to this wood. Please book well in advance, as this isn’t usually carried in stock.

$150 per cubic meter

Supplying Ignition

We are always on the look out for wood, weather is be in log form (preferred), ring form ,whole trees or firewood. There must be at least 10 tonne for it to be worth our while and we are fully capable of unloading log trucks from our yard. If you are wanting standing trees removed we are after Macrocarpa and Gums, and we can arrange for them to be felled and removed. There must be a minimum of 10 trees and higher volume means we can do the job for a lower cost – or even at no cost. Please contact Carlos on mobile number below to discuss.
