Firewood Delivery Across Vancouver Island
A Renewable Energy Source Replacing Traditional Firewood
Pallets and Bulk Bags
Pallets and Bags of Firebricks from BioBurn
Two formats, same brick. A pallet is 1,000 kg — 95 shrink-wrapped bundles of twelve briquettes. A bulk bag is roughly 900 kg of loose briquettes, about 1,000 of them, on the same size pallet.
Choose wrapped pallets for easy handling and covered outdoor storage. Choose bulk bags if you have a dry shed or garage and want the lowest-cost format. Delivery is included in the listed price.

How Delivery Works
We offer delivery to all of our customers to get your firebricks to your door. All deliveries are made using a 5 ton truck (approx. 25’ long) equipped either with a power tailgate and pallet jack, or a truck mounted forklift for easy unloading. Our driveway delivery service is available if your driveway is easily accessible and relatively level —a necessary condition to safely unload the truck. For dirt or gravel driveways, we may only be able to deliver the pallet just off of the tailgate, moving the pallet off the truck directly onto the ground behind it.
If you have an inaccessible or a very steep driveway and wish to avoid curbside delivery, please make note of it on your order form and request a phone call to discuss other possible delivery options.

There are two different types of bulk orders for purchasing firebricks:
By the pallet: one tonne (1,000 kg) of firebricks — 95 packages of twelve, so 1,140 bricks.
By the bulk bag: 1,000 loose firebricks, roughly 0.88 of a tonne.

FAQ’S
Have questions? We have answers! Here are our most frequently asked questions and everything you need to know about them.
What are the dimensions of a pallet?
A pallet is 40” wide x 48” deep x 44” tall. A bulk bag is delivered on the same size pallet but is approximately 60” tall.
What are the dimensions of each brick?
A BioBurn FireBrick is roughly 3” tall x 2.5” wide x 6” long.
How soon after I place the order will I receive delivery?
During peak season (September-March) deliveries are usually made within seven days of an order being placed. North Island and some Gulf Islands may experience a slightly longer lead time. You can contact us anytime to check the status of your delivery. During the quieter season (April-August), deliveries are made to each area once there are a minimum of 4 pallets sold in that particular area.
Do I need to be home for the delivery?
If you are not going to be home to receive your delivery, your pallet or bulk bag will be left in your driveway (or carport if requested), covered with a thin plastic liner to protect the delivery from rain damage. This plastic liner is only to be used temporarily to protect the product until you arrive home, at which time the product should be moved into a more adequate storage area where it is off the ground and covered from the elements.
Can the bricks be stored in a traditional wood shed or in my car port?
The plastic-wrapped packages, which you receive when ordering a pallet, are safe to be stored outdoors under cover as long as they do not have any direct contact with water/rain or snow. When purchasing a bulk bag of loose bricks, it is recommended that the bricks be stored inside, as there is no plastic packaging to protect the bricks from ambient moisture in the air.
How long does a brick burn?
There are far to many variables to be able to give an answer. When used as directed, (watch this video), you will get better results with firebricks compared to traditional cordwood.
