We had a great experience with mulch mound! Our mulch arrived when we requested. The delivery fee was so reasonable. We’ll use them again for sure!

For a typical Atlanta home burning occasionally through the winter, a quarter to half cord usually covers the season, while full time wood heat users should plan on a full cord.

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. Smaller sizes are the same stack at a quarter, half, or three quarters of that volume.

First time going with this company for mulch and it was an efficient process from start to finish. Website was easy—I told them exactly where I wanted the mulch put on my driveway, and it was delivered perfectly when I got home from work the next day. Best deal around when I compared it to competitors and I will definitely be becoming back.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Because Atlanta's clay soil drains slowly, never stack firewood directly on bare ground where it can wick up moisture after our frequent spring and fall rains. Use a pallet or raised rack to keep air moving underneath, and stack loosely with the bark side up on top pieces to shed water. A simple tarp or metal roof cover on top, left open on the sides, keeps humidity from turning your seasoned wood green again.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory from around Atlanta burn longer and hotter than red maple, so mix species depending on your goal. Use maple for a quicker starter fire and add oak or hickory once the fire is established for a slow burning bed of coals that will hold heat through a chilly Georgia night. Testing a split log with a moisture meter before burning is a smart habit if you want consistent results.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood before the first frost hits around November 10, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and delivery windows fill up during the first real cold snap. Buying in October or early November also gives you a buffer if an unexpected early cold front rolls through, which happens more often than people expect in our part of Georgia.

Wood Heat in Atlanta

Atlanta winters are short but they can turn damp and chilly fast, with heating season really running from mid November through early March in most Fulton and DeKalb County homes. Because our summers are so humid, wood that has not been properly seasoned holds onto moisture much longer here than it would in a drier climate, which means it smokes, smolders, and throws off less heat. Local oak, hickory, and red maple need a full six to twelve months of covered drying time to reach a safe burn moisture level in our climate. Buying wood that has already been seasoned near Atlanta means you are not waiting out that drying process yourself in a carport or side yard. With our clay soil holding groundwater near the surface, stacked wood left directly on the ground seasons unevenly, so proper local sourcing and handling matters more than in sandier or drier regions.

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

Answer

How much firewood do I actually need to get through an Atlanta winter

Most Atlanta homes that burn a fire a few nights a week during the coldest stretch, roughly mid December through February, go through a quarter to half cord in a season. Households heating a main living space with a wood stove often need a full cord to get from the first frost on November 10 through the last frost around April 1.

Answer

What does seasoned firewood mean and why does it matter in Georgia's humidity

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a safe burn moisture level, typically under 20 percent, instead of being freshly cut and full of sap water. In our humid Zone 8a climate, green wood can take much longer to dry properly than in drier states, so buying already seasoned hardwood saves you months of storage headaches and gives you a cleaner, hotter burn right away.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get delivered

Our loads are seasoned hardwood sourced from around the metro Atlanta area, typically a mix of oak, hickory, and red maple, the species that grow well in our clay soil and Zone 8a climate. These woods burn hot and steady, which is exactly what you want on a cold January night.

Answer

Is this really local wood, and does that matter

Yes, our firewood is sourced near Atlanta rather than trucked in from out of state. Buying local matters because moving firewood long distances is a known way invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so keeping wood close to where it is cut and burned protects the hardwood trees in our own neighborhoods.

Answer

How does delivery actually work once I place an order

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery day that fits your timeline, and the wood is dropped loose in your driveway rather than stacked, so plan on having space cleared and a bit of time to move it to your storage spot.

Answer

What is a rick or face cord and how does that compare to what you sell

Some folks who moved to Atlanta from Kentucky, Missouri, or southern Ohio ask about a rick or face cord, which usually refers to a stack 4 feet high by 8 feet long but only as deep as the log length, often 16 to 18 inches. That generally lines up close to our quarter cord to a third of a full cord, so if you are used to that term, our quarter and half cord sizes are the closest match.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Atlanta

The Atlanta area occasionally issues ozone or air quality advisories through the Georgia Environmental Protection Division during stagnant weather, mostly in warmer months, but outdoor wood burning restrictions are more about voluntary burn bans during droughts. Checking local county guidance before a big bonfire is always a good idea, especially during dry spells.
