The proper stacking of logs is crucial when preparing them for burning in the stove. This will ensure that they remain dry and ready for burning.

The round stack method is a very popular method to stack firewood. It is simple to set up and looks beautiful. Start by creating an initial base of three to four rows of treated 2x4s or pallets. Then build the pillars at the end on top of this base by laying 3-4 pieces of wood next to each other, and then placing another piece on the opposite side, with bigger gaps at each end. Continue building these pillars up to 12 rows, making sure that there is plenty of space between each one for air to move through the pile.

Then, use a center stake to hold the stack upright and begin adding perpendicular pieces on the outside of the stack, tying them together in the middle using string. Repeat this process until you have reached the maximum height of your wall. Then, you can fill in the interior with oddball pieces, and those pieces that are too big for the outer rows. Indoor stacking requires a space with good airflow and plenty of light. Overcrowding can result in damp and spongy wood. The best place to stack indoors is usually an underground garage or basement.
