🔥 Dry My Wood™: The Firewood Co. Kiln Service
Burned buying firewood that won’t burn? We can dry it!Dry My Wood™ is a corrective service for homeowners who purchased firewood advertised as “seasoned” but is actually green. Burning unseasoned wood is dangerous, causing creosote buildup, chimney fires, smoke hazards, and serious safety risks.
Selling green wood as seasoned is illegal, but it still happens. Our kiln-drying service makes your wood safe, efficient, and burn-ready — fast, professional, and complete with free stacking after delivery.

Emergency assistance for home-split wood: We may offer help if homeowners split their own wood but it didn’t dry in time. Proof of splitting and storage may be requested
Wood Condition
Only fresh, unseasoned wood is eligible for Dry My Wood™. Rotted, moldy, or otherwise damaged wood cannot be accepted for kiln drying. Wood must be split and stored by the homeowner.
