Wooden Nickels

Wooden Nickels is a firewood supplier serving Gorham and a 20-town delivery area across southern Maine, including Portland, Windham, Scarborough, Freeport, and Yarmouth. Whether you heat your home year-round or stock wood for occasional use, they carry multiple wood types to match your needs and budget.

Wood Types and Heating Value

They supply seasoned firewood, green firewood, and camp wood. Seasoned hardwoods—typically oak and similar species—deliver 24-28 million BTU per cord, making them ideal for consistent heat output. Target moisture content should be 20% or below for efficient burning and minimal creosote buildup. Green wood requires longer drying (6–12 months) but costs less upfront if you're planning ahead.

Delivery and Additional Services

Beyond standard cord deliveries, Wooden Nickels offers split wood, a firewood cleaner (useful for removing bark and debris), kindling bags for quick-start fires, and crate options for organized storage. They handle delivery logistics, which eliminates the labor of sourcing and transporting full cords yourself. Full cords measure 128 cubic feet—confirm your needs before ordering, as pricing typically ranges $150–$300 per cord depending on wood type and delivery distance in the Gorham area.
