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!

For a wood stove used as a main heat source through Boone's full October to May season, plan on three to four full cords, while occasional fireplace use typically needs a half cord to a full cord.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.
While you are prepping for winter, check out our Boone area mulch and stone options to protect garden beds from the region's rocky clay soil before the ground freezes.
Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails and keep the top covered but the sides open to airflow, since Boone's damp mountain air can trap moisture against a fully tarped pile and encourage mold. A woodshed with a roof and open sides works best here, letting wind move through while keeping snow and rain off the stacked rows.
Test a split with a moisture meter before burning, aiming for under 20 percent, since our humid summers can leave wood feeling dry on the outside while still holding water inside. Oak in particular needs the longest seasoning time of our local species, so give it priority when planning ahead for winter.
Order your firewood in late summer, well before Boone's early October frost, since demand spikes fast once the first cold nights hit the mountains and local seasoned supply can run short. Ordering ahead also gives freshly split wood extra weeks to finish drying under cover before you need it burning hot.
At 3,333 feet in elevation, Boone sees a long, damp heating season that typically stretches from early October to mid May, which means woodstoves and fireplaces here run harder and longer than in the surrounding piedmont. Local hardwoods like red oak, hickory, and black locust are dense and burn hot, but only after they have been properly seasoned, since our mountain humidity keeps green wood from drying out on its own. Wood cut and split earlier in the year needs a full six to twelve months under cover before it burns clean, otherwise you get more creosote buildup in the chimney and a smokier fire. Because our winters start early, with first frost often landing by October 5, getting seasoned wood delivered before the cold snap hits matters more here than in lower elevation towns. Buying wood that was already cut and dried near Boone means it is ready to burn the day it lands in your driveway.
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.
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.
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.
