Firewood Delivery Service Overview

We specialize in delivering high-quality firewood, from hardwoods to braai wood, in a fast, professional manner. Our team handles everything from the initial order to neatly stacking the wood at your location.

Standard Delivery:
Firewood delivered loose will always be stacked in your chosen area. Normally, bagged wood stays in bags, but we’re happy to un-bag and stack it for you at no extra charge. Just be sure to give these instructions to our team when they arrive. We can carry the wood up to 30m max from where the delivery vehicle parks. However, if there are many stairs or the distance exceeds 30m, a R150 fee will apply for the extra time and labour. This fee is payable upon delivery.

Delivery Timeframes:
Orders are typically delivered within 3-7 business days, depending on payment clearance and current demand (sometimes delivered as fast as the same or next day). We aim to get your wood to you as quickly as possible but do cater for a large volume of households across a massive area, however, we are committed to getting the job done.

Delivery times are highly dependant on the season were in at the time, in winter or autumn you can expect a longer wait due to high demand, where in Summer or Spring we have more time available and can therefore get orders out in almost half the time so keep this in mind when stocking up.

In general smaller orders go out the fastest where bigger orders may take a few days to arrive.


Delivery Scheduling & Guidelines

For a seamless firewood delivery experience, we organize deliveries by suburb to ensure efficiency. Here’s what you can expect:

Estimated Delivery Windows:
While we don’t offer precise delivery times, we do provide an estimated window (morning, mid-day or afternoon) and can supply you with an approximate 3 hour window. Our teams will update you on delivery day and remain in communication until the trip has been completed.

On-Site Requirements and Notes:

  • Please ensure someone is available to receive the delivery.
  • A second delivery fee of R200 applies if no one is present.
  • Keep driveways and parking spaces clear, and inform us of any access codes or special instructions.
  • Make sure the area to stack is clear and ready to pack in.
  • There should be little in our path while carrying and stacking, ensuring we are able to move around with ease.
  • Ensure the person receiving your wood has been well informed about what needs to take place and where the woods should go, if they are staying in bags or not, etc. If we are not given exact instructions on arrival there may be a cost involved to come back and complete it according to your required specifications.
  • We are happy to stack in a maximum of 2 areas. So some wood in the Braai room and some in the garage etc.

Premium Seasoned Hardwood & Bulk Fuel Supply

Thermal efficiency is non-negotiable. As Cape Town’s premier fuel logistics partner, we specialize in the supply of moisture-tested, Namibian Hardwood engineered for maximum combustion and minimal residue. Our supply chain is anchored by slow-burning giants like Kameeldoring (Camelthorn) and Sekelbos (Sicklebush)—dense, arid-region woods that define the authentic high-heat braai experience. For indoor heating, our seasoned firewood delivery service provides perfectly cured Blue Gum (Bloekom) and Red Gum, guaranteeing a high-thermal output essential for smoke-free fireplaces. Whether you require Wingerd Stompies for a rapid, intense blaze or dense Mopani and Swarthaak for an all-night burn, our stock is guaranteed dry and ready for immediate use.

Beyond residential braais, we act as the primary energy supplier for estates and hospitality venues across the Peninsula. We facilitate large-scale wholesale firewood orders, bulk fuel supply, and international firewood export logistics, delivering a comprehensive range of solid fuels including Anthracite coal, Charcoal, and high-grade Briquettes and Kindling.

Our logistics fleet is optimized for versatility, offering precise delivery in manageable bags or economical bakkie loads (loose pieces) directly to your storage area. From premium Kaggelhout for the winter hearth to specialized Pizza wood for the culinary industry, Mother City Firewood is the best company to deliver professional-grade fuel with free stacking and expert advice included in every drop.

Integrated Waste Management & Garden Refuse Removal

Our logistics network extends beyond energy supply; we ensure your property remains pristine through our professional waste removal services. Utilizing the same high-capacity fleet that manages our firewood routes, we offer a streamlined "load-and-go" solution for general household waste, rubbish, and organic debris. By consolidating your firewood delivery with a waste collection, you streamline your property maintenance into a single, professional transaction with a team you already trust.

How Our "Load-and-Go" Service Works:

  • Identical Delivery Footprint: We operate within the exact same boundaries as our firewood supply, servicing the entire Northern Suburbs, Southern Suburbs and Cape based network. If we deliver wood to you, we can collect your waste.
  • Smart "Firewood Out / Waste In" Logistics: We utilize a two-way logistics model. Our vehicles arrive laden with premium firewood and depart with your refuse. This efficiency reduces our carbon footprint and allows us to offer competitive rates on waste collection.
  • Load-Ready Preparation: To ensure a rapid collection, please have all waste consolidated into a single pile ready for "load-and-go." The pile must be accessible within max 30m of our vehicle parking spot (driveway, garage, or verge).
  • Accepted Materials & Restrictions: This service is ideally suited for garden waste, organic debris, garage cleanups, and general household clutter. Note: We do not collect heavy building rubble, flammable materials, or pet waste.
  • Route-Integrated Scheduling: Similar to our firewood deliveries, we will email you a proposed collection slot that ties in efficiently with our existing routes in your area, ensuring punctuality and reliability.
  • All-Inclusive Fixed Rate: You need not lift a finger. We supply the vehicle, trailer (if required), labor, heavy-duty bags, and tools. You pay one fixed rate online that covers everything from collection to responsible disposal.
  • Seamless Online Booking: Simply assess your volume (in terms of bakkie loads or additional trailer loads) and book securely online. You can complete your waste removal order in under 5 clicks.
