  1. When storing wood for drying (seasoning), it is essential to provide it with proper ventilation. Thanks to this, the wood dries faster and, at the same time, prevents the development of decay processes. If you want to dry as quickly as possible, cut it into smaller parts beforehand. Wood with a smaller size shows better properties when it comes to quick drying. A good solution will undoubtedly be constructing a particular wood drying room or purchasing such a room in a container. Due to such an investment's high costs, it is recommended only to those who often dry and store wood. If your needs are not too large, do better by outsourcing drying to external entities. Contrary to appearances, we can save a massive sum in this way. When storing wood, the most important thing is to maintain an appropriate level of moisture. Each species is different in this respect. It is essential in firewood because the undried raw material is much less efficient in terms of its energy value and emits more harmful substances during combustion. Which has a significant impact on the cleanliness of the air. Put it briefly: The most important to keep it at least on the stacks as high as wooden pallets. Cannot touch the ground. Spaces between stacks the rest will be done by wind. If people can dry wood as on the picture below. Im sure your solution will work.
