Mallee Root Firewood 20kg – Branded Sack
What’s in the sack
Cleaned, dry mallee root pieces in irregular, knobbly shapes, generally from fist to football size. Because the pieces are irregular, a bag suits open fireplaces, fire pits and wood-fired cooking better than small heater doors. Every bag is packed in a branded Exotic Firewood Australia kraft sack for clean, easy handling.
This species grows in the eastern states, so we source it interstate from established suppliers and bring it into Western Australia in line with WA biosecurity requirements for clean, soil-free firewood. Stock arrives by batch, so confirm availability with the yard before paying.

Choosing mallee root firewood 20kg bags
Before you buy mallee root firewood 20kg bags, check these points against how you plan to use them. The live price and specifications on this page take priority over any general guide.
- Choose bags when easy handling matters more than bulk price per tonne.
- Check that your appliance or oven suits the piece size.
- Keep sacks off the ground in a dry, ventilated spot.
- Follow local fire restrictions before lighting an outdoor fire.
How to use mallee root firewood 20kg
Start small. Build a base of scrunched paper or a natural firelighter, add a handful of kindling in a loose criss-cross, then light it and leave the air control fully open. Once the kindling is burning well, add two or three pieces of mallee root firewood 20kg with gaps between them so air can move. Adding too much fuel at once smothers a young fire and creates smoke.
Add fresh pieces while there is still a healthy bed of coals rather than waiting for the fire to die down. In a closed heater, reduce the air slowly once the new pieces have caught; turning it down too early is the most common cause of a smoky, sooty glass door.
Storing mallee root firewood 20kg at home
Keep mallee root firewood 20kg in a dry place off the ground: a garage shelf, a covered rack or a well-ventilated shed works well. Bags stored directly on concrete can draw up moisture, so a pallet or rack underneath is worth it. Keep fuel away from the heater, hot flues and anything that could ignite, and bring inside only what you will burn in the next few days.
Use older stock first. Even dry wood can pick up moisture from damp air over winter, so store it where rain and garden sprinklers cannot reach it.
Safety checklist
Never use petrol, kerosene or other liquid accelerants to start an indoor fire. Keep a fire screen in front of open fireplaces, keep children and pets back, and maintain clear space around the hearth. Have the flue checked regularly; DFES provides practical home-fire safety advice for Western Australian households.
