Bulk Seasoned River Red Gum — Standard Split

River Red Gum is the classic Australian fireplace log: heavy red heartwood ringed with pale sapwood, a clean burn with gentle aroma, and coals that cook as beautifully as they heat.

Red Gum splits cleanly and stacks tidy, and its density sits comfortably between Jarrah and lighter hardwoods — hot enough for winter nights, controllable enough for a dinner-party fireplace. Ours is plantation-sourced, seasoned under cover and checked for moisture before it is listed.

Why Perth households choose this load

Sold by weight, delivered by scale: every bulk load is weighed on certified loader scales before it leaves our Baldivis yard, so the tonnage you order is the tonnage tipped on your driveway.
Seasoned and ready to burn: moisture tested on arrival at the yard and typically sitting at 10–15%, well under the 25% threshold where fires struggle.
Cut for Australian appliances: pieces generally run 250–350mm — a loaf-of-bread length that suits open fireplaces, slow-combustion heaters and pizza ovens alike.
Six load sizes: from a half-tonne top-up through to a three-tonne winter stock-up, with per-tonne pricing that rewards buying ahead of the season.

Best suited to

Open fireplaces and indoor heaters
Pizza ovens and wood-fired cooking
Family fire pits where low spark matters
Households wanting a fragrant, clean-burning log

Lighting and burning tips

Start with an Exotic Natural Firelighter and a handful of dry kindling, build a coal bed with smaller pieces, then settle larger splits on top without choking the airflow. Store your load under cover, raised off damp ground, with air moving through the stack — seasoned wood kept dry burns hotter and cleaner all winter. See our guide to storing firewood properly in Perth.

Delivery and pickup

Bulk loads are tipped onto your driveway or a safe, accessible spot anywhere in Perth metro, Monday to Saturday from 7am, typically within 1–3 business days (2–5 days at peak winter).
