Winter in Sydney means the wood pile runs down fast, and ordering from the wrong firewood supplier can leave you with green, smoky logs a week before a cold snap. Between the yards on this page there are well over 500 Google reviews, and most sit at 4.9 stars, so the real differences show up in delivery speed, wood type, and how the yard actually treats a first-time caller.
Short answer: WasteWood Local Recycled Timber in Marrickville leads at 4.9 stars across 130 reviews, prized for its recycled hardwood and hands-on staff, though it is primarily a timber yard rather than a dedicated firewood delivery service. For straightforward cube deliveries, Oz Firewood and Ample Firewood both hold 4.9 stars with decades of local supply behind them, while Betta Burn Firewood rates 4.5 across 128 reviews as Sydney's largest dedicated firewood operator.
How we score
Every number on this page comes from public Google data as of the date shown, not opinion or payment. Rating is the business’s live Google star average. Review volume is how many customers have rated them, measured against other Sydney firewood suppliers. Confidence weighs the rating by that volume, so a 4.9 built on 130 reviews carries more weight than one built on a dozen. Recency reflects how recently people are still leaving reviews. No business can pay to change these numbers.
How much does firewood cost in Sydney? (2026)
Sydney firewood is typically sold by volume (per cubic metre or ‘cube’) rather than by weight, since damp wood weighs more without burning better. Price moves with wood type (ironbark and other dense hardwoods cost more than softer mixed loads), whether you collect or have it delivered, and how far the delivery has to travel.
| Job | Typical price |
|---|
| Boot load, self-collect (per supplier’s published pricing) | from $100 |
| Trailer load, self-collect (per supplier’s published pricing) | from $200 |
| 10kg kindling bag (per supplier’s published pricing) | $10 |
Ranges compiled July 2026 from individual suppliers’ own published pricing pages, cited where each figure appears. Loaded cube and delivered-cube prices vary by yard and are not consistently published, so confirm the current rate and any delivery surcharge by phone before you order.
Serving all of Sydney
These suppliers between them cover the inner west, the CBD, the west (Penrith and the Hawkesbury), and Sydney’s outer west (Horsley Park), so most of greater Sydney has a yard within a reasonable delivery run.

What to ask before you order firewood
- Is the wood sold by volume (cube) or by weight, and how is that measured?
- Is it seasoned or green, and how long has it been drying?
- What species is it, and how does that affect burn time and smoke?
- What is the delivery lead time during peak winter demand?
- Where exactly will the load be tipped, and can I request a tarp or specific spot?
- Is there a minimum order for delivery, or do I need to collect?
Frequently asked questions
How did you choose these firewood suppliers?
We started from firewood and wood suppliers in Sydney with a public Google presence, then ranked by rating, review volume, consistency, and recency. See How we score above.
Are these rankings paid?
No. Rankings come from the public Google data in the scorecard. A business can pay to be a Featured Partner, which adds a badge and top placement, but that never changes another business’s score or position on the underlying data.
How often is this updated?
The data carries a verified date (July 2026 on this page). We refresh listings periodically so ratings and review counts stay current.
Is seasoned or green firewood better?
Seasoned (dried) firewood burns hotter, cleaner and with less smoke than green wood, which is why several suppliers here specifically note how long their stock has been drying. Ask before you order.
Do Sydney firewood suppliers deliver, or do I need to collect?
Most of the suppliers on this page offer both delivery and self-collect pick-up, though hours and minimum order sizes vary. Check the listing for each business’s current hours and call to confirm delivery to your suburb.
The bottom line
If you want a dedicated firewood operator with decades of consistent reviews, Oz Firewood or Ample Firewood are the safest calls. If you specifically want dense ironbark or timber offcuts and don’t mind visiting a yard, WasteWood is worth the trip. Whoever you choose, confirm the wood type and delivery timing before the truck shows up.
