Active since 1995, Hearth.com is THE place on the internet for free information and advice about wood stoves, pellet stoves and other energy saving equipment.
We strive to provide opinions, articles, discussions and history related to Hearth Products and in a more general sense, energy issues.
We promote the EFFICIENT, RESPONSIBLE, CLEAN and SAFE use of all fuels, whether renewable or fossil.
Depends.
If it's for me, same length. I stack it in a fixed-size shed (5 rows max, 6.5-7.5 ft tall, 6 ft wide), and appropriate length stacks allow me to not waste space (or stick out into the rain), and same-size stacks are more stable.
If it's for my elderly neighbors who have a tiny VC stove and want small wood, and who dump the wood in a pile (under a roof), it doesn't matter.
Hence they get all the uglies and shorties, and I get the stackable stuff.
