Buying Firewood in Cape Town:
Everything You Need to Know Before Ordering
Choosing the right firewood isn’t simply about buying wood that burns. The quality of your firewood determines how much heat you produce, how long your fire lasts, how much smoke is created and even how often your chimney requires cleaning. At Firewood Cape Town, we supply carefully selected hardwoods that are suitable for fireplaces, indoor heating, braais, pizza ovens, restaurants, lodges and commercial facilities throughout Cape Town and the surrounding areas.
Our goal is simple: deliver premium firewood that burns efficiently and arrives ready to use. Whether you’re ordering a few bags for your home or bulk firewood for ongoing commercial use, we help you choose the right wood for your application.
Which Firewood Is Best?
Different hardwoods offer different burning characteristics. The best option depends on how you intend using your fire.
If you’re unsure which wood to choose, our team can recommend the best option based on your heating requirements, fireplace size or cooking application.
Blue Gum Firewood, Rooikrans Firewood and Black Wattle Firewood remain our three most popular products throughout the Cape Town area.
One of the biggest mistakes homeowners make is buying freshly cut wood. Green wood contains high moisture levels, making it difficult to light while producing excessive smoke and significantly less heat.
Our firewood is properly seasoned before delivery, allowing it to burn cleaner, hotter and more efficiently. Properly seasoned hardwood also helps reduce soot and creosote build-up inside chimneys, improving both safety and heating performance.
We deliver across Cape Town and many surrounding suburbs, making it easy to order quality firewood without the inconvenience of collecting it yourself. Whether you require a once-off delivery or regular supply during winter, we provide reliable delivery for residential and commercial customers.
Popular delivery areas include Durbanville, Bellville, Stellenbosch, Brackenfell, Somerset West, Northern Suburbs, Southern Suburbs and many other surrounding areas.
Many of our customers require larger quantities of firewood throughout the year. We regularly supply restaurants, guest houses, hotels, wine estates, event venues and accommodation establishments with dependable bulk firewood deliveries.
If your business depends on reliable heating or wood-fired cooking, we can help establish an ongoing supply schedule that keeps your stock levels consistent throughout the season.

Firewood prices depend on the type of hardwood, quantity ordered and delivery location. While price is important, choosing properly seasoned hardwood usually provides far better value because it burns longer and generates more usable heat.

One of the most common questions we receive is how much firewood to order. The answer depends on how often you use your fireplace or braai, the size of your fire, and whether you’re buying for occasional use or the entire winter season. Ordering the right quantity helps you save money on delivery while ensuring you never run out when temperatures drop.
If you enjoy a fire a few evenings each week during winter, a small delivery is usually enough to last several weeks. Families who light their fireplace every evening often benefit from ordering larger quantities, reducing the need for frequent deliveries while securing better value.
Weekend braai enthusiasts generally use less wood than households relying on a fireplace for heating. Rooikrans remains one of the most popular choices for braais thanks to its excellent coals and steady cooking temperatures, while Blue Gum is often selected for longer-burning outdoor fires.
Restaurants, guest houses, wine farms and event venues typically require regular deliveries to maintain a consistent supply of quality firewood. We can recommend suitable delivery schedules based on your average weekly usage, helping you avoid unnecessary storage while ensuring you always have stock available.
Proper storage helps maintain the quality of seasoned firewood. Keep your wood stacked off the ground in a dry, well-ventilated area with protection from rain while allowing airflow around the stack. Correct storage keeps your firewood dry and ready to burn whenever you need it.
Not sure how much to order? Our team is happy to recommend the right quantity and the best type of firewood based on your fireplace, braai or commercial requirements.

Choosing the best firewood depends on how you plan to use it. Some hardwoods are better suited for long-burning fireplaces, while others produce excellent cooking coals for traditional South African braais. At Firewood Cape Town, we only supply quality hardwoods that have been carefully selected for their heat output, burn time and overall performance.
If your priority is keeping your home warm during winter, Blue Gum Firewood is one of the best choices available. It burns slowly, produces excellent heat and creates long-lasting coals, making it perfect for indoor fireplaces and slow evening fires.
For outdoor cooking, Rooikrans Firewood remains a favourite across Cape Town. It creates consistent coals that are ideal for grilling meat while adding the authentic braai experience South Africans love.
Commercial kitchens require firewood that burns consistently over extended periods. Many restaurants, guest houses and wine farms choose hardwoods like Blue Gum and Black Wattle because they provide reliable heat, long burn times and dependable performance during busy service periods.
No matter which species you choose, properly seasoned firewood always performs better than freshly cut wood. Dry hardwood lights more easily, burns hotter, produces less smoke and leaves behind less creosote inside your chimney. It also provides significantly more usable heat, giving you better value for your money.
Still unsure which firewood is right for you? Our experienced team is happy to recommend the best option based on your fireplace, braai, pizza oven or commercial requirements.
Buying firewood isn’t simply about choosing the cheapest option. Different hardwoods burn differently, produce varying levels of heat and smoke, and are better suited to specific applications. Below are answers to some of the most common questions our customers ask before ordering firewood.
For indoor fireplaces, properly seasoned hardwoods such as Blue Gum Firewood and premium Namibian hardwoods provide long burn times, consistent heat and reduced smoke. Using dry wood also helps minimise creosote build-up inside your chimney.
Dense hardwoods generally burn much longer than softwoods. Blue Gum is known for excellent heat output, while Rooikrans produces long-lasting coals that make it ideal for braais. Compare all available options in our Types of Firewood Guide.
This depends on how frequently you use your fireplace or braai. Occasional users may only require a few bags each month, while households heating their homes throughout winter often benefit from purchasing larger quantities. Businesses, restaurants and guest houses usually save by ordering in bulk.
Excess smoke is usually caused by wood that still contains too much moisture. Properly seasoned firewood burns hotter, produces less smoke and is easier to light. Learn more in our guide to the Best Firewood For Low-Smoke Fireplaces.
