Delivery to Strand & Gordon’s Bay
The Firewood Company delivers braai wood, charcoal, kaggelhout and Namibian hardwood to Strand, Gordon’s Bay, Melkbaai, Rusthof, Van der Stel and Harbour Island for R300 per drop. Deliveries run Monday to Friday, typically within 1–2 business days. Offloading and stacking the bags included.
Delivery fee: R300 flat, whatever you order. No minimum.
Delivery days: Monday to Friday. Typical turnaround is 1–2 business days; in peak winter weeks it can stretch to 2–4. The turnaround for your order is shown at checkout before you pay, and we update it as demand changes.
Cut-off: order by Thursday 15:00 to be on Friday’s run. For a house that fills up on a Friday afternoon, that is the run that counts. After the cut-off, ask, but don’t build the weekend on the answer.
Offloading and stacking the bags: included. Unbagging is R10 a bag, added at checkout.
Access: the beachfront blocks mean a boom, a visitor bay and a lift. Give us the block name, the flat number and someone who will be there, and the bags go up rather than standing in the foyer.
Strand & Gordon’s Bay: the local paragraph
Strand and Gordon’s Bay buy fire the way holiday towns do — in bursts, around December, Easter and every long weekend, rather than in one July stock-up. The blocks along Beach Road fill in a week and empty in a week, and a flat that comes with a balcony braai usually comes with one cupboard going spare, which rules out a winter’s worth of wood before the conversation starts. That is the real constraint on this stretch of coast, and it is why charcoal and Short Pieces move harder here than anywhere else on our map. The second constraint is the air. Salt and sea mist find anything stored in an open carport or on an exposed balcony, and a bag that has been sitting out since March lights like it has been rained on. Buy less, more often, and keep it inside. Round the bay past the harbour, where Clarence Drive starts climbing toward Steenbras, the houses get bigger and the wind off the water gets stronger, and those orders come in proper winter quantities.
What we’d put on the truck for a Strand flat: one bag of Short Pieces, a 5kg bag of Namib charcoal and a box of firelighters. Enough for the week, small enough to store.
What Strand & Gordon’s Bay orders
Short Pieces – Blue Gum ±20kg — R99 — blue gum in short lengths, sized for a balcony braai or a shallow flat hearth. Stacks into the space a suitcase takes.
Namib Charcoal 5kg — R60 — the everyday bag. No open flame to manage on a balcony, and the empty bag goes in the bin instead of the cupboard.
Namibian Hardwood Eco / Heat Logs 10kg (12 logs) — R115 — compressed hardwood: the same size every time, low ash, nothing to sweep up. Twelve logs in a box that fits on a shelf, indoors, where the sea air can’t reach them.

Strand & Gordon’s Bay firewood delivery — FAQ
How much is firewood delivery to Strand and Gordon’s Bay?
R300 flat per drop, the same in Melkbaai, Rusthof, Van der Stel and Harbour Island, and the same for one bag or ten. The fee is on the page and on the checkout screen before payment, not after it.
We’re in a holiday flat with almost no storage. What should we order?
Short Pieces at R99 and a 5kg bag of Namib charcoal at R60. Both stack small and both suit a week of braais rather than a season of them. Heat logs are the tidiest of the three: twelve compressed logs in one box, no bark, low ash.
Does sea air ruin firewood?
It does not help it. Salt and mist find anything left in an open carport or on a balcony, and damp wood is hard to light and disappointing once it is. Keep the bags closed and indoors — a cupboard, a store room, under the stairs — and buy smaller amounts more often instead of storing a winter’s worth beside the sea.
Can you deliver before the December holidays?
Yes, and the last two weeks of December are the busiest of the year on this road. Order by Thursday 15:00 for the Friday run, and if the house is filling up over the holidays, order the week before rather than the day before.
Is your wood actually dry?
Yes, and we stake 25 years on it. Our bagged wood is seasoned and stored under cover, so it lights properly and burns hot instead of hissing at you. If a bag ever disappoints, tell us and we’ll make it right — that is the Dry Guarantee. Read the Dry Guarantee.
