The round stack method of stacking firewood is a popular method that is easy to master and looks stunning. Begin by making a base of three to four parallel rows of treated 2x4s or pallets. On top of the base, build a stack with end pillars by putting 3-4 pieces of lumber side-by-side and another on the opposite side. Continue to build these pillars until the stack is 12 rows high, ensuring that there are enough spaces between each one to ensure that air can flow easily through the entire pile.
Use a center stake for stability. Begin by adding perpendicular pieces on the outside. Tie them together with string in the middle.

It is essential to keep in mind that indoor stacking requires a room with plenty of sunlight and good airflow. Overcrowding a stack can lead to moldy and damp wood. The ideal indoor space for stacking is typically garages or basements.
