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.

Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

For a typical Alpharetta heating season, occasional fireplace use points toward a quarter or third cord, while daily wood stove users should order a half cord to a full cord to last through late March.

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.

Areas we deliver firewood in Alpharetta, Georgia

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or a rack so red clay moisture does not wick into the bottom rows, and keep at least a few inches of airflow between rows. Cover just the top with a tarp rather than wrapping the whole pile, since trapping humidity underneath in our muggy climate slows seasoning and invites mold on wood that is otherwise ready to burn.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory take longer to catch than maple, so build your fire with a smaller maple or kindling base and add oak or hickory splits once you have solid coals going. A quick moisture meter check, aiming for under 20 percent, helps confirm the wood is truly ready before you count on it for an overnight burn.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood before the first hard frost hits in late October, since demand and delivery windows tighten up once temperatures drop across north Fulton County. Buying a season ahead also gives any slightly under seasoned splits extra weeks to dry out fully in your storage rack before you need them for a cold night.

Wood Heat in Alpharetta

Alpharetta winters run from that late October frost around Oct 27 through the last frost near Mar 28, which adds up to a solid stretch of fireplace and wood stove season. Georgia's red clay ground and our humid subtropical air mean freshly cut wood holds moisture far longer than folks expect, so unseasoned splits can hiss, smoke, and leave creosote instead of real heat. Our wood is dried down to true burn ready moisture before it reaches your driveway. Local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and red maple are common in Fulton County lots and give the dense, long burning coals that suit chilly north Georgia nights. Buying wood that has already seasoned through Georgia's humidity swings means you get consistent heat output instead of guesswork.

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 do I actually need to get through an Alpharetta winter?

Most Alpharetta homeowners who burn a few nights a week from late October through March use somewhere between a half cord and a full cord. If your fireplace is your main heat source rather than just ambiance, plan closer to a full cord to cover the whole frost to frost window.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried enough that its moisture content drops to a range that burns clean and hot, usually under 20 percent. In our humid Georgia climate, green wood can take six months to a year to reach that point on its own, so buying pre-seasoned wood saves you a smoky, low heat fire this winter.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a delivery?

Expect a mix of oak, hickory, and maple, the hardwoods most common in the Alpharetta area. These species split well, season reliably in our climate, and burn longer than softer woods like pine, which is why we do not deliver pine as a heating wood.

Answer

Is this firewood actually sourced near Alpharetta?

Yes, our wood is cut and seasoned locally rather than trucked in from other states. Moving firewood long distances is a known way to spread pests like the emerald ash borer, so keeping our supply local protects the hardwood trees already growing around your neighborhood.

Answer

How does delivery to my house actually work?

You choose a cord size, we schedule a delivery date, and the wood is dumped loose at the driveway spot you request. Stacking is not included, so plan for some time to move it to your storage area, especially before a cold snap hits.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do your sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is a quarter of that volume, our third cord and half cord scale up from there, so you can match your firewood order to how much space you have and how often you burn.

Answer

Does Alpharetta have any burn restrictions I should know about?

Georgia's Environmental Protection Division issues seasonal burn advisories in the Atlanta metro area, including Fulton County, during high ozone days, which typically affect outdoor burning more than indoor fireplace use. It is worth checking local advisories on poor air quality days if you are burning outdoors as well as indoors.
