Summer rates for firewood ending soon

Julie Neighbourly Lead from Havelock North

If you haven’t ordered your firewood for winter, get to it ASAP. The cheaper summer rates are ending soon, not that we have had much of a summer, so far.

Tumu Timbers have 2 cord of untreated pine off cuts for $315 ($265 with a Gold card), with free delivery within 25km.
Visit their website for more details or to order online www.tumutimbers.co.nz... or phone Tumu on 06 873 0997

Don’t wait till winter, when the price is around $100+ dearer to try to order wood. Order in summer.
