Spread the cost with
pay-by-instalment
Many households prefer to spread the cost of their firewood rather than paying it all at once. Our Pay-By-Instalment scheme lets you make regular payments throughout the year and build up credit toward future deliveries.
The details
How are my payments protected?
Unfortunately, no. This is a pre-payment scheme, not a credit account. Payments are made in advance and held in trust until enough has built up to cover your order. We don't offer buy-now-pay-later or credit arrangements.
What is the Pay-By-Instalment scheme?
It's a pre-payment plan that lets you save steadily toward future firewood orders. Your payments go into a dedicated trust account, where they stay until your firewood is delivered. It's built for customers who'd rather spread the cost across the year than face a lump sum right before winter.
Open a Pay-By-Instalment account with us
Make regular payments, at whatever frequency and amount suits you
Once you've built up enough for your chosen order, we'll be in touch
We arrange delivery, and the funds are released from the trust account
Your account can keep running for future deliveries
Your payments are protected by a formal agreement and held in a dedicated trust account throughout.
The sooner your account's set up and payments start, the sooner you'll have firewood ready when you need it.
Can I get firewood now and pay it off later?
Every payment made through the Pay-By-Instalment scheme goes into a dedicated trust account. The money stays there until your firewood has been delivered — only then is the agreed amount released to Clearwater Firewood. It means your savings are held securely the whole time you're building up credit toward your order.

Don't just take our word for it!
We have been with Clearwater firewood for a number of years now and find the quality and reliability second to none. We use the Trust account and find getting a load of wood pain free. I would highly recommend them.

The wood is great quality, and Ron is very helpful in recommending the best wood option for our needs. The option of paying for our wood weekly via the Trust system has been so helpful in spreading out the cost of our winter heating. Highly recommended.

We’ve been using the Pay by Installment system to buy our firewood from Clearwaters for over ten years. Ronald always delivers on time - which is really important to me because I work shifts. The firewood is always of high quality
