Forest Commodities Inc.

Forest Commodities Inc. supplies firewood to South Paris and the surrounding region, focusing on mixed hardwood delivery for residential heating and wood stoves.

Mixed Hardwood Quality & BTU Output

Hardwoods like oak and hickory—common components of mixed hardwood bundles—deliver strong heating performance. Oak provides approximately 24–28 million BTU per cord, while hickory ranges from 27–30 million BTU per cord. These species burn longer and hotter than softwoods, making them reliable for Maine's cold season. Forest Commodities Inc. sources mixed hardwoods suitable for established wood-burning setups.

Firewood Delivery to Your Door

Ordering firewood delivered beats stacking a truck yourself. Forest Commodities Inc. handles delivery logistics, bringing cords to your property in South Paris. Standard cord sizes measure 128 cubic feet (4 ft high × 8 ft long × 4 ft deep). Homeowners should confirm delivery windows and ask whether the wood is split and ready to burn immediately or requires additional seasoning.

Wood Moisture & Storage

Properly seasoned firewood targets 20% moisture content or lower—the sweet spot for efficient burning and minimal creosote buildup in chimneys. After delivery, stack your wood in a covered or well-ventilated area to maintain dryness through the heating season.
