I don't really know specifically, but if you check under the classified and press on some of the links, it may say under their shipping policy if they ship out of the country or not. Online is definitely cheaper and much better quality. What is Java Wood?
 
Toxic Woods:

These natual woods should be avoided as they are deadly to your chin.


almond/ andromeda/ apricot/ aralia spinosa / avacado/ ayan/ azalea/ beech/
benjamin fig/ birch: Betula pendula, silver birch, white birch
black locust/ black lotus/ blackwood/ box elder/ boxwood/ buckthorn/ cannabis/ cashew/ cedar/ cherry/ chestnut/
china berry/ chinese snake tree/ chinese popcorn or tallow/ chokeberry/ citrus woods such as orange, grapefruit,
lime or lemon/ cocobolo/ cocus/ common sage/ crabapple/ cypress/ dahoma/ datura/ daphne/ dieffenbachia/

ebony/ elderberry/ eucalyptus/ euonymus/ euphorbia/ fir/ firethorn/ flame tree/ foxglove/ ginkgo/ golden chain tree/
greenheart/ ground cherry/ guarea/ hemlock/ holly/ honey locust/ horse chestnut/ huckleberry/ hydrangea/
iapacho or ipe/ iroko/ ironwood/ juniper/ katon/ kentucky coffee tree/ kumquat/ laurel/ mahogany/ makore/

mansonia/ man-made board: plywood, chipboard, blockboard, hardboard, fibreboard stirling board/
maple/ mesquite/ mock orange/ monstera/ mountain laurel/ myrtle/ nectarine/ oak/ obeche/ oleander/ opepe/
peach/ peroba/ pine that's fresh ,fresh pinecones /plum/ privet/ rain tree/ ramin/ red maple/ redwood or sequoia

Would the bolded wood be one in the same with regular coffee wood? If so, it is on the toxic list for chinchillas.

Sorry for reviving an old thread but I thought some might be interested...

The "Kentucy Coffeetree" mentioned above, Gymnocladus dioicus, is no relation to "Java Wood", which is (not a brand) the wood of old coffee trees (that no longer produce good crops of beans), anything of the Genus Coffea, usually Coffea arabica.

"Java Wood" is considered safe for chinchillas :thumbsup:
