Those St. Louis winters can get mighty cold, so it’s important to have plenty of firewood on hand to burn. But to get the most out of any wood, it needs to be dried properly, which is why Jay's Firewood & Mulch LLC in Perryville, MO, takes the utmost care in kiln drying and seasoning every cord of wood they sell.

Kiln drying has many benefits: the faster drying time allows Jay’s Firewood & Mulch to get their quality seasoned oak firewood to you with a quicker turnaround. This also helps them increase efficiency and create more space in the lumberyard. Another benefit to kiln-dried firewood is that, unlike air-dried wood, this process kills insects and eggs. Drying firewood in a kiln also helps set the pitch in the wood. Some types of wood, such as spruce, have pockets of pitch in them, and kiln drying helps reduce and settle the amount of pitch, making for a better burn.

All of the hardwoods available from Jay’s Firewood & Mulch are grown locally in Perryville. Each batch of wood is dried and seasoned for 12-15 months, guaranteeing an easy light and a slow and steady burn. No matter how much seasoned firewood you require, Jay’s Firewood & Mulch can deliver enough to keep your warm for a few weekends, or an entire winter.
