The phrase denotes readily available, prepared fuel wood, sourced locally and transported to the buyer’s location. This type of wood has undergone a drying process, reducing its moisture content to an optimal level for efficient combustion. Availability is typically determined by the user’s geographic proximity to suppliers offering delivery services.
Obtaining properly dried fuel wood offers several advantages. Lower moisture content results in higher heat output and reduced smoke production, contributing to a cleaner and more efficient burning experience. This choice also minimizes the build-up of creosote in chimneys, reducing the risk of chimney fires. Historically, access to reliable sources of firewood has been essential for heating homes and cooking, especially in regions with colder climates. The convenience of delivery further enhances the appeal for individuals with limited time or transportation capabilities.
