Firewood must be at an optimal moisture percentage to ensure a hot, clean burning fire. Keeping firewood dry is critical to seasoning it and ensuring the moisture content is low enough that it burns hot, clean, minimizes smoke, and helps reduce chimney buildup.

Storing firewood outdoors can present challenges, but by covering it to prevent rain, sleet, and snow from coming in direct content with the firewood all the while allowing air flow will help keep your firewood dry. Firewood should also be elevated at least 18 inches off the ground to prevent ground moisture from coming into contact with the wood.

Chicago Canvas offers a variety of tarp options for firewood storage ranging from light duty to heavy duty tarps in a variety of sizes to fit your application.
