Unstable Firewood Piles, Photo

I move and stack a LOT of firewood, but despite my experience, a pile topple is a scary reality. Be very careful out there, particularly if you have children!!

When stacking your firewood, avoid gnarled, odd shaped and overly short pieces as they can potentially compromise the pile's stability. Don't stack too high either, the taller they are, the harder they fall.

Happy heating!
