About Logs-Direct
As of August 2024, Logs-Direct has been incorporated into Shorts Group.
Reaching back into our roots Shorts Group started off as Shorts Timber Services with David Short gaining recognition for clearing wooded areas ahead of construction of both the M2 and M4. As he used to say, Shorts Logs always burn brighter.
Our logs are sustainably sourced and seasoned to ensure the moisture content is less than 20% in accordance with Woodsure’s Ready to Burn scheme.
