Storing firewood properly inside the wood storage shed in the backyard

Are you constantly looking for additional storage for wood, tools, and other garden supplies? An outdoor storage shed in Texas may be the ideal solution. Different types of storage structures available in the market serve a wide range of purposes. For instance, wood storage sheds are ideal for smaller backyard spaces. 

These are convenient places for keeping piles of firewood dry and easily accessible during the colder months. Most of these structures feature open-air designs for adequate air circulation while the wood remains elevated from the moist ground. In addition to the woodshed, a wide variety of storage buildings are available for homeowners who require outdoor storage space.

Are you stacking firewood correctly?

There are better ideas than simply piling the logs, we recommend having a firewood storage rack. These racks are designed in a way that the wood receives adequate ventilation. This prevents the wood from rotting due to dampness and humidity. The wood should be stored more than 3 feet away from your main property. Make sure the wood storage space is not near the trees or any other combustible objects. Never store wood in the garage or basement, or else the items can be prone to attacks by insects, rodents, pests, etc. 

Keeping moisture away

Please have a vapor barrier under the firewood storage rack to prevent moisture and humidity from ruining the material. A concrete foundation seems to work efficiently in arresting moisture. A few other tips include splitting the logs before storing and you can stack the wood in an alternate direction for improved ventilation and excess drying time. Seasoned firewood burns longer when dried and stored properly. Extra hours of burning time for each wooden log are a boon indeed. SturdiShed’s structures have vent screens and an advanced ventilation system that keeps the interior and prevents condensation.
