Covered Firewood Storage

What This Service Involves

Constant drizzle is the biggest threat to a good woodpile here, and covered storage is the answer. We set up sheltered stacking that keeps rain and snow off the top and sides while leaving the ends open for air to pass through. Whether it is a rack with a fitted cover or a spot under existing shelter, the wood stays dry without being sealed off. Covered storage protects the time and money already invested in seasoning your wood.
