If you're buying firewood from a reputable firewood supplier in Melbourne, chances are it was originally sourced from a government approved logging permit.

People who thin redgum areas or log dead river redgum need to have permits to do so. This is controlled very strictly and large fines apply for people not complying.

A lot of the firewood in Melbourne comes from the Victoria, New South Wales border along the Murray River. If you're buying wood, make sure it's from a sustainable, reliable'source.

The Green Centre only supplies wood from approved suppliers that comply with these strict standards.
