Product description
Certified By USDA in 2024
USDA certification indicates that the firewood meets strict standards set by the United States Department of Agriculture to prevent the spread of invasive pests and diseases. These pests can be transported in untreated firewood and pose a threat to forests and ecosystems across the country.
USDA certification involves kiln drying, where the firewood is heated, and any potential pests or pathogens are killed off. This certification is particularly important for firewood that is transported across state lines, as different regions have unique ecosystems that could be negatively impacted by invasive species.
For consumers, USDA-certified firewood is a must and ensures that the wood is safe to use and complies with federal regulations aimed at protecting forests and agricultural resources. Firewood companies like Smoak Firewood emphasize this certification to show that their products are responsibly sourced and processed.

Kiln Dried Firewood Advantage
ADVANTAGES
- Kiln dried wood is easy to light.
- It burns hotter and gives off 35% more heat.
- It burns brighter.
- It is bug, parasite and mold free.
- Kiln dried wood is much lighter making it easier to haul.
- Kiln dried wood is consistent all year long.
NO BUGS OR PARASITES
- Kiln dried wood is bug and parasite free. During the kiln drying process, the bugs and parasites are eliminated. This keeps you from bringing insects into your home, such as termites and ants. Naturally seasoned wood can have both of these pests inside of it.
- Kiln dried wood is also mold free.
THE DRYING PROCESS
- The drying process is computer-controlled. This process removes about 1/3 of the water and the weight from the firewood, depending on the type.
- The kiln monitors the internal temperature of the wood to ensure compliance with USDA requirements.
- This process takes up to 48 hours depending on the type of wood and the moisture level when it is loaded.
CONSISTENT AND SAFE
- It is easy to start because of the low moisture content.
- Kiln dried wood has a higher BTU output giving you more heat and flame.
- Kiln dried wood is much safer because it burns cleaner with less smoke and ash and much less creosote buildup in your chimney.
