Delivery to Constantia
The Firewood Company delivers kaggelhout, braai wood, Namibian hardwood and charcoal to Constantia, Upper Constantia, Alphen, Silverhurst and Constantia Hills for R350 per drop. Deliveries run Monday to Friday, typically within 1–2 business days. Offloading and stacking the bags included.
Delivery fee: R350 flat, whatever you order. No minimum. Constantia sits in postcode 7806, which is a different delivery zone from the R300 suburbs on the rest of the Southern Suburbs route. Hout Bay shares the postcode and has its own page.
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 the Friday run. Later than that, ask — a Friday morning truck sometimes has room, but it is not something to plan around.
Offloading and stacking the bags: included. Unbagging is R10 a bag, added at checkout.
Access: most Constantia deliveries end a long way from the road. Put the gate code, the length of the drive and where the wood store is in the order notes, and the driver goes straight to it.
Constantia: the local paragraph
Constantia gets its winter from the Constantiaberg. The cloud comes over the ridge late in the afternoon, sits in the valley overnight and is still hanging in the oaks along Brommersvlei at nine the next morning. The houses were built for it — thatch that holds warmth once it has it, stone that takes most of a day to warm through, and a fireplace in every room that matters. The lanes off Constantia Main Road, Spaanschemat River Road and Southern Cross Drive run a long way from the gate to the door, past the vineyards, and by June the wood store at the end of them needs filling.
That is why Constantia orders bigger than almost anywhere in Cape Town. Not two bags at a time — a stack. Kaggelhout for the open hearth in the sitting room, Namibian hardwood for the closed-combustion unit that runs from breakfast on a wet Sunday, a bag of lump charcoal for the pizza oven under the pergola. The order is a season’s planning rather than a Tuesday errand, and the truck arrives to a wood store, a garage or a covered corner of the stoep with the gate code already in the notes.
What we’d put on the truck for a Constantia house: ten bloekom for the hearth, six kameeldoring for the closed-combustion unit and the braai, two Chunky for the big fireplace, a bag of restaurant-grade lump charcoal for the oven, stacked in the wood store.
What Constantia orders
Blue Gum / Bloekom Seasoned ±20kg — R109 — the nightly fireplace wood. Lights without fuss and settles into a long, even burn in an open hearth. The bag that gets ordered ten at a time here.
Kameeldoring ±18kg — R120 — dense Namibian hardwood that settles into hot coals and stays there. For the closed-combustion unit that has to run all of a wet Sunday, and for the braai when the whole road comes over.
Namibian Hardwood Chunky ±18kg — R135 — extra-large pieces for a big hearth, a fire pit or a boma. One piece does the work of three ordinary ones, which is the point in a fireplace built for a farmhouse.

Constantia firewood delivery — FAQ
How much is firewood delivery to Constantia?
R350 flat, whether you order two bags or twenty. Constantia is postcode 7806, a different delivery zone from Newlands, Claremont and Rondebosch at R300. The fee is the same across Upper Constantia, Alphen, Silverhurst and Constantia Hills, and it shows at checkout before you pay.
Which wood is best for a closed-combustion unit in Constantia?
Kameeldoring or Namibian Hardwood Mix — dense hardwood that settles into coals and holds heat without being fed every half-hour. Heat Logs if you want uniform pieces, low ash and no bark on the floor. Bloekom for the open hearth in the next room.
Our wood store is at the end of a long driveway. Can you get it there?
Yes — that is the usual Constantia delivery. Put the gate code and where the wood store sits in the order notes, and the driver carries the bags to it and stacks them. If the drive is gravel and steep after rain, say so and we plan the truck accordingly.
What should I burn in a Constantia pizza oven?
Sekelbos to get it hot fast, then restaurant-grade lump charcoal if you want a stable bed for a long evening of flatbreads and a whole chicken. A handful of wingerd stompies on top for the smell.
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.
