As there’s always a cost to travelling, my whanau and myself have been out cutting fire wood and will be taking orders if you are in need of a trailer load or two!
The firewood is pine 🌲 for those who are asking!
They are $300 a trailer load and we deliver to Greytown, Featherston, Martinbourough and Carterton
Cheers Whanau, Arohanui ❤️
Orders just to either myself on 0272077025 or Dean Southey on 0274687238
