How AA Firewood Supply Seasons and Prepares Firewood
Inside the Longwarry yard process: from log stock to split, seasoned hardwood — moisture-aware preparation, generous loose cubic metres, and ready-to-burn tip-off delivery across Gippsland.
Published 8 August 2026 · AA Firewood Supply
Good firewood is made long before the tipper hits your street in Warragul or Drouin. At AA Firewood Supply’s Longwarry yard, the job is turning raw hardwood into seasoned, split, ready-to-burn cubic metres — the kind that lights without a fight and throws real heat on a frost morning.
Here is how we think about harvesting supply, processing, seasoning and delivery — in plain language, the way we explain it to customers.
1. Bringing hardwood into the yard
Bulk logs and rounds arrive at Longwarry to keep stock ahead of winter demand. You will see raw rounds, processed piles and machinery that turns big timber into heater-ready splits. Volume matters in Gippsland winters — empty yards do not keep houses warm in July.
We also offer land clearing across local properties. Where the timber is suitable, clearing work can feed into firewood processing so less wood is wasted and more ends up as useful heat. Land clearing is always quoted by phone — it is not a one-click online product — but it is part of how a working yard stays stocked with real hardwood.
2. Splitting and sorting for the fire, not the photo
Rounds are split to a practical size for wood heaters and open fires. Conveyors and loaders move wood through the yard so piles stay workable. Different products — Local Hardwood Mix, Blue Gum, Redgum, Box Mix and blends — are kept as distinct offerings so what you order online matches what tips onto the kerb.
3. Seasoning: the step most cheap loads skip
Seasoning is controlled drying. Moisture leaves the wood so combustion can do its job. We sell seasoned hardwood only — ready to burn — because green wood is a false economy. It is heavier to tip, harder to light, smokier, and colder in the room for the same “looks like a lot of wood” pile.
On the yard we care about moisture. Gallery and proof photos from our stock show moisture-meter checks on split wood — the kind of reading that tells you a load is in the seasoned zone, not fresh-cut. That discipline is why “seasoned, ready to burn” is on every product we list.
4. Honest measure: the generous loose cubic metre
Victorian buyers get confused by stacked metres, ute loads and “trailer loads.” We keep one measure: the generous loose cubic metre, whole metres only, minimum 1 m³. What you order is what we tip. That pairs with seasoning — dry wood by an honest metre is the combination that actually heats the house.
5. Loading for tip-off delivery
Orders are loaded for tip-off at the kerb. Same-day runs happen when the diary allows. Drivers work delivery zones from Longwarry so Warragul, Drouin and nearby towns get predictable fees and timing. Payment is cash on delivery or card — same wood either way.
What we do not do on the public site
We keep the public offer focused: seasoned firewood delivery, bags and kindling, zone delivery, and land clearing by quote. That clarity helps you order the right product without hunting through services you do not need.

Frequently asked questions
- Is AA Firewood Supply wood seasoned?
- Yes. We only sell seasoned, ready-to-burn hardwood. Green loads are not part of our catalogue.
- Do you process timber from land clearing?
- Where suitable, timber from land clearing jobs can be processed into firewood. Land clearing itself is quoted by phone — call 0491 101 095.
- Why does seasoning matter?
- Dry wood lights easier, burns hotter, and produces less smoke than green timber. Heat goes into your room instead of boiling off water in the wood.
