Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

Occasional fire pit users in the Baltimore area typically do fine with a quarter to half cord for the season, while regular wood burning stove households should order one to two full cords to stay stocked through April.

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.

Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or a rack, since Baltimore's silt loam soil holds moisture and can wick dampness straight into your bottom logs. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top with a tarp, keeping the sides open so humidity does not get trapped and encourage mold during our damp winter stretches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory take longer to catch than softer woods, so start your fire with a few smaller split pieces or kindling before adding larger oak rounds. A simple moisture meter reading under 20 percent means your wood is ready, anything higher and you will notice more hissing and less flame, especially with thicker Maryland grown hardwood splits.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall before the October frost hits, since demand across the Baltimore area climbs fast once temperatures drop and popular cord sizes can book up during the first real cold snap. Ordering early also gives freshly split wood extra weeks to finish seasoning before you need it.

Wood Heat in Baltimore

Baltimore winters run from the first frost around October 25 through last frost near April 10, which adds up to a long stretch of chimney and fire pit season. Our silt loam region and humid Mid Atlantic air mean freshly cut wood holds moisture much longer than in drier climates, so unseasoned rounds can smoke and creosote up a flue fast. We season our hardwood, mostly oak, hickory, and red maple pulled from woodlots around the Baltimore metro, for months until moisture content drops enough for a clean, hot burn. That matters in a Zone 7b climate where damp cold snaps are common and a poor burning fire means more trips outside for wood. Local seasoning also means the wood has already adjusted to our regional humidity, so it will not shock and crack unpredictably once it is stacked at your place.

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 a Baltimore winter?

For a home relying on wood as a supplemental heat source through our roughly five month cold season, most Baltimore households use between one half and one full cord. If wood is your primary heat source, plan closer to three to four cords given our stretch of frosty nights between late October and mid April.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content, typically under 20 percent, instead of being freshly split and full of sap. In our humid Maryland air, green wood can take over a year to dry properly on its own, so buying pre seasoned wood saves you a smoky, hard to light fire this winter.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a Baltimore delivery?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and red maple, all common species harvested from woodlots around the Baltimore region. Oak and hickory burn long and hot, which is ideal for the colder stretches we get from December through February.

Answer

Is this wood actually local, and why should I care?

Yes, we source within the Baltimore area rather than trucking wood in from far away states. Keeping firewood local matters because pests like the emerald ash borer spread through firewood transported long distances, and Maryland has active efforts to slow that spread.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway work?

We drop your order loose in the driveway on your scheduled delivery day, there is no stacking included, so you will want to have a tarp or rack ready if rain or humidity is in the forecast.

Answer

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

Some Baltimore area customers coming from further west or south use the term 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 around 16 to 18 inches. That is roughly comparable to our quarter cord to one third cord range, so if you are used to ordering a rick, our quarter or half cord options are a good starting point.

Answer

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

Baltimore area air quality can prompt burn advisories on stagnant, high pollution days, so it is worth checking local air quality alerts before lighting an outdoor fire on those days. Well seasoned hardwood also burns cleaner and produces less visible smoke than green wood, which helps keep you in good standing with neighbors on calm winter evenings.
