About this firewood

A quarter cord of seasoned hardwood, 32 cubic feet, split and ready to burn. A tidy starter load for occasional fires and fireplace evenings through the season.

Highest compliments. Great driver.
Website is easy to navigate. Just a seamless process. 5 stars!!

For most Abilene homes, a half cord covers a moderate winter of occasional fires, while full time wood heat users through the whole frost window should plan on a full cord to avoid running short in February.

A full cord is a stacked pile of split firewood measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, about 128 cubic feet. Every size we sell is measured against that same standard. A full cord is 128 cubic feet, a half cord is 64, a third of a cord is 43, and a quarter cord is 32. When you compare prices, ask how many cubic feet you are getting. A stack sold as 4 feet high by 8 feet long looks the same from the front whether it is 4 feet deep or 16 inches deep, but the shallow one holds about a third as much wood.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

While you are prepping the yard for cold weather, pair your firewood order with mulch or soil from our Abilene regional page to protect beds through the clay loam winter freeze thaw cycle.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so air can move underneath, since Abilene's clay loam soil holds moisture after rain and can wick dampness right back into your splits. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top of the stack, keeping the sides open so trapped humidity can escape instead of turning your seasoned wood soft and moldy before you ever get to burn it.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Mesquite burns hot and fast with strong coals, great for quick heat, while oak burns slower and steadier for overnight warmth, so mixing species in the firebox gives you both quick flame and lasting coals. Test moisture by splitting a piece and pressing a moisture meter to the fresh face rather than the weathered exterior, since surface dryness can mask a damp core.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order firewood before late October if you want first pick of well seasoned splits, since demand climbs fast once that first frost hits around November 5 and suppliers can run low on the driest wood right when everyone wants it. Buying early also gives freshly delivered wood extra weeks to finish drying in your own stack before you need it most.

Wood Heat in Abilene

Abilene winters run short but sharp, with the first frost typically landing around November 5 and the last one lingering into early April, so a fireplace or wood stove often gets steady use across a genuine cold season. Local mesquite, oak, and pecan are common hardwoods in this part of Texas, and they need real time to season properly because West Texas swings between dry stretches and bursts of humidity that can trap moisture inside unsplit rounds. Wood that has not fully seasoned burns cooler, smokes more, and gums up chimneys faster, which matters when you are relying on it through months of clay loam ground cold snaps. Buying wood that has already dried down to a proper burn moisture level means less creosote buildup and more heat per load on the coldest Abilene nights. Because our elevation near 1749 feet keeps the air fairly dry outside of storm systems, seasoned splits here tend to catch quickly and burn clean once properly cured.

Local Hardwood Species

Expect dense regional hardwoods like oak, hickory, maple, and ash. These species burn longer and hotter than softwoods, which is what you want when a cold snap settles in and the stove runs all day.

Seasoning and Moisture

Firewood needs 6 to 12 months of drying before it burns well. Properly seasoned wood lights faster, throws more heat, and keeps creosote out of your chimney, which matters most in the coldest weeks of the year.

Buy Local, Burn Local

Firewood that travels long distances spreads invasive pests like the emerald ash borer. Our wood is cut and seasoned close to where it is delivered, which protects local trees and means fresher wood for you.

Frequently Asked Questions

Click a question to see the answer

Answer

How much firewood does a typical Abilene winter actually use?

Most Abilene households burning a few nights a week from November through early April go through a half cord to a full cord, while folks who light fires nightly during cold snaps often use closer to a full cord or more.

Answer

What does seasoned firewood mean and why does it matter here?

Seasoned means the wood has dried down after splitting, usually six months to a year, so it lights easier and burns hotter, which matters in Abilene because our dry stretches can fool you into thinking green wood is ready when the inside is still damp.

Answer

What kind of wood should I expect in my delivery?

Expect hardwoods common to this part of Texas such as mesquite, oak, and pecan, all known for dense, long burning coals that hold heat well through cold Abilene nights.

Answer

Is this firewood actually sourced near Abilene?

Yes, our wood is sourced locally near Abilene, and keeping firewood local matters because hauling it long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas.

Answer

How does delivery to my house actually work?

You choose a cord size, we schedule a delivery window, and the wood is dropped loose in your driveway, ready for you to stack, since stacking itself is not included.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a half cord, and a full cord?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet, measured as a stack 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and our quarter, third, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume for smaller storage spaces or lighter burning needs.

Answer

Are there any local rules I should know about before burning?

Abilene occasionally issues air quality advisories during dry, high wind conditions, so it is worth checking local burn notices before lighting up, especially during red flag warning days in late summer and fall.
