The Best Firewood in the Entire Chicago Region
The Luxurious Kiln-Dried Firewood Experience
Last time we checked, using firewood is supposed to be relaxing. The whole point is to get hypnotized by the flames as you enjoy a refreshing beverage, toasting s’more and absorbing conversation with the ones you love.
You won’t get that pure, uninterrupted experience if you keep getting distracted by a low-quality fire.
At Lumberjacks, we only produce kiln-dried firewood because it’s the only wood that makes the perfect fire possible.
What is Kiln-Dried Firewood?
Kiln-dried firewood is wood that has been painstakingly engineered for the highest quality fires. We hand-select the best pieces of locally sourced hardwood and split them to a 16-inch length and 1-2-inch diameter. Then we heat-treat and kiln-dry it for two days at over 260 degrees in state-of-the-art dry kilns. The wood comes out in prime fire making condition, containing less than 20% moisture and no insects, mold, mildew, fungi or pesticides.
Why is this Better Than Regular Firewood?
The wood must contain less than 20% moisture because anything more than that creates the frustrations we described above. The excess moisture makes the wood difficult to ignite and produces subpar flames that give off a lot of dirty smoke and creosote.
Unfortunately, most of the firewood sold in the Chicago region contains over 20% moisture. This is because firewood suppliers opt for the cheaper and less effective process of seasoning the wood by leaving it out to dry.
We refuse to leave the moisture content of your wood to chance. Instead, every piece of wood you purchase from Lumberjacks will always be in the best possible burning condition.
The Perks of Using Kiln-Dried Firewood
Ultra-Quick Ignition
Get your fire going right away with the driest wood for the speediest flames.
Get More Out of Less
Kiln-dried firewood creates the hottest fires using the least amount of wood.
Cleaner, Safer Fires
At under 20% moisture, the wood produces minimal dirty smoke and creosote.
Safe to Store Indoors
Since it contains no bugs, mold or fungus, you won’t bring any pests inside.

What Our Customers are Saying
Great guys, was looking for some hickory pieces for carving and they hooked me up. Give em a try!
I buy all my wood from Lumberjacks. It's high quality, and the customer service is awesome.
I purchased a cord of mixed wood and it was delivered heated just out of the oven! I will see how it burns and if it burns well I will continue to order from Lumberjacks.
Answered by a real person on first call, got a quote and delivery with ease! Thanks! Wood is dry and burns well.
This is the first time I have purchased from Lumberjacks and can say you get what you pay for. By far the cleanest, hottest wood I have ever purchased. Takes less wood to make more heat. I wish I would have tried Lumberjacks years ago, but will be calling then again.
The two people who delivered and stacked my wood did an outstanding job. They worked quickly and had the wood stacked in a very short time. They were really great and I hope, when I have to get more wood, that they are the ones who deliver and stack it!
I’m pretty patient but the woman who answered the phone was so rude, I didn’t even want to try and finish the conversation. You pulled a muscle. That’s a poor excuse for poor communication skills.
Awesome firewood, very dry, burns excellent! Will be purchasing from Lumberjacks again! Highly recommend!
The employees showed up on time and quickly stacked the wood in a very neat manner. I look forward to the next time I do business with them.
We’ve bought firewood annually for over a decade and tried Lumberjacks last year for the first time after another company left a face cord of wood that didn’t burn no matter what you did with it. Well, we are back with Lumberjack’s this year again and will never go anywhere else. This is the best wood we have EVER had, plus the people who deliver and stack it are courteous and do an amazing job. They even intersperse small kindling pieces throughout the stack of larger ones. This wood catches quick, burns hot, and there’s almost no smoke or ash. You will never look back.
I live in Granger Indiana, which is a 2 1/2 hour drive (door to door) to arrive in Woodstock, IL. Making this trip to get quality wood to heat my home is well worth it! In addition, Lumberjack’s customer service is amazing! They are fast, responsive and work very hard to ensure your experience is a good one! Whether you are heating your home, firing up the smoker, or lighting the camp fire; their staff is on deck to take good care of your needs. Thank you Bryan and the Lumberjack Team for your exceptional product and customer service. See you again soon!
The whole process was seamless. From placing the order to delivery was excellent. Anthony did a great job contacting me the night before to let me know his arrival time. In the morning he texted me the actual arrival time and he was actually a little early! He stacked the wood and cleaned up as agreed on. I had a fire later and the wood is just spectacular! I will definitely order again!A+ company. A pleasure to do business with. Highly recommend!
"YOU GET WHAT YOU PAY FOR" For many years I ordered my firewood from Lumberjacks and was always satisfied. The last couple years, I ordered from facebook market place to save a few bucks. That wood was just ok, random sized pieces that I had to split of who knows what kind of wood. This year I treated myself to a face cord of mixed hardwood. The generous pile of wood consisted of perfectly sized, super dry quality wood that I burned the day it was delivered. Treat yourself this winter and give them a call.
I think we have enough for a couple months. 😁Brian educated us on the benefits of using Kiln dried wood. We've a wood burning stove and have used seasoned wood from other vendors for years to stay warm.We noticed the difference immediately. Burns clean, burns hot, less soot, most of all almost no smoke, my sinuses are thrilled. If you're burning indoor, the extra cost for Kiln dried is absolutely worth it, and the service from the Lumberjacks team is solid.
The wood from lumberjacks is perfect. It is ready to light as soon as it is dropped. We have burned about 30 pieces so far, since having the load dropped a few weeks ago and are absolutely impressed with the dryness of the wood. I have used another firewood supplier in recent years, but for the cost and immediate use, Lumberjacks will be my go to option.
This wood is awesome. They deliver you everything you need except a match to start a fire! The wood is bone dry, bug free and cut into various sizes. It amazing! Put the smallest wood which is paper thin at the bottom. Then add the 1/8 boards down followed by 1/4 size logs. Light a match under the smallest pieces and in less than a few minute you will have a blazing and beautiful fire; that burns clean and awesome. I wont get wood from anywhere else. If you love fires, why not make starting one easy? I save 100s of dollars on buying starter logs!!!
I cannot say enough about Lumberjacks. From the impeccable quality of their wood (it’s so amazing), to the genuine expertise of every person that answers the phone. This year, they hit the trifecta with me and that is Anthony. Anthony delivered and stacked the wood. I had a little issue this year and his attention to customer service and detail, which is so rare these days, remedied it all. Thanks again Anthony! Lumberjacks is the total package and I will go nowhere else for my firewood. Don’t even think twice about ordering from here.
Nice, dry wood really dried well. Helpful knowledgeable service. Quick deliveryThanksJim
Called on Saturday and delivery was the following Monday, beating my expectations. The quantity of wood delivered met, and I suspect slightly exceeded, what was ordered. Nice bonus and much appreciated.
Been receiving firewood for 5-6 years from Lumberjacks. Always dry and ready to burn and stacked neatly where I want it.
Hands down the best place to get your firewood!!! Amazing product, amazing service!! From the person taking my order to the man delivering my wood!! I've been ordering from Lumberjacks for years and have enjoyed numerous fires both in my fire pit and my fireplace. Thank you Lumberjacks!!!
These guys were great. From the person taking the order to Anthony and his friend who delivered the load. They were prompt, fast, and professional. I highly recommend them
Had two separate 5 yard deliveries. Both were delivered by the same driver one or two days apart. The driver went out of his way to make the second delivery before I was leaving town. The service was over and above expectations. The mulch was also excellent.
Excellent firewood - lights quickly, burns hot, very little smoke, and very little ash left behind.
Responded to our inquiry call right away. Delivery was scheduled very quickly. Team showed up on time. Stacked and cleaned-up. Very professional, and friendly. Will order from Lumberjacks again!
An amazing place to work with! I needed two huge slaps of wood for an art project and they really came through for me! They where so helpful and supportive and made the whole process easy for me. Thank you so much!
The customer service has been fantastic each time we have ordered firewood from Lumberjacks, Inc. They have been very conscientiousabout our “needs/wants” and have delivered above and beyond my expectations even when they are extremely busy. The product has also been wonderful! The kiln dried firewood creates a great fire and smells amazing! I would recommend this company to anyone and I would never want to use a different company for firewood. You can tell how much I mean this business I have probably only written under 5 reviews, despite how much business I conduct digitally. Thank you for being an amazing company!
Lumberjacks firewood is great quality and their service meets high standards, too. It's so nice to have a crackling fire in my home, thanks to the good quality firewood delivered right to my driveway. Convenient, affordable and worth every penny - confirmed every time I make a fire!
Drove 91 minutes each way to pick up a face cord of mixed wood for our fire pit. Pulled up to see the crew splitting, stacking, unloading the kiln, and sorting all of the wood. It’s an impressive operation to watch and smells amazing while the kilns are going! I was greeted by a gentleman that asked how he could help and I explained what I was there for. I paid and he directed me to the crew working the wood. I pulled up and the guys brought over the face cord to load in my truck. They helped hand stack all of the wood in my pickup and I was on my way. Quick, friendly service! Well worth the drive! I can’t wait to burn through all the wood so I can go back again!

Common Firewood Questions
Is kiln-dried firewood really worth the extra cost?
We won’t lie to you. Our kiln-dried firewood is more expensive than regular seasoned firewood because of the extra effort required to produce it. However, we feel like this price is more than worth it for the enhanced experience kiln-dried firewood provides. There’s something about grabbing a pristine piece of wood and setting it ablaze with minimal effort that makes us feel alive!
Does your company do anything to protect the environment?
Yes! Obviously, it takes a lot of wood to do what we do, so we only source our wood from responsible local harvesters. These organizations plant a tree for every tree they cut down to ensure our forests will stay green, vibrant and beautiful.
What’s the best way to get my firewood?
We recommend our efficient firewood delivery service because it’s the easiest way to get the wood you need. We deliver throughout the Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin regions from our main location in Woodstock, IL. It should take between 1-3 days to get your firewood depending on how far away you are. Our team takes great care to ensure high quality and accurate firewood delivery.
Of course, if you prefer to do it yourself, you can also stop by one of our two locations in Woodstock or Lake in the Hills. We offer bundled firewood that can fit inside a car trunk, or we can help you load up your truck with a face cord. Whatever works best for you!
Why do you charge for stacking while others do it for free?
We charge for stacking because it creates extra labor on our end. We feel the optional extra fee is reasonable and worth it for the awesome job our workers do neatly stacking it.
The truth is it would be a red flag if we didn’t charge for stacking. After all, companies that offer free stacking often do so because they don’t want you to stack it yourself. If you did, you could discover that there’s less wood in your delivery than you paid for. But when they stack it, they can use crisscross stacking methods to make it look like there’s more wood there than there is.
What is your firewood delivery area?
We deliver firewood throughout the Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin regions. This includes Chicago, Rockford, Milwaukee and the many towns in between.
How much firewood do I need?
This answer to this question depends on what you plan on doing with the wood. For example, if you only plan on making a few campfires or the occasional bonfire, then you’ll be better off purchasing a few bundles. On the other hand, if you want to heat your home for the winter, then you’ll probably need a face cord or more.
Obviously, we can’t tell you exactly how much wood you’ll need here, but we’d be happy to help you figure it out. Please call us or stop by one of our locations to receive assistance from our firewood experts. You can also learn more by reading our blog on how much firewood to order.
