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 steady wood heat all winter, plan on three to four full cords delivered before the season starts. For occasional fires, a half cord to one cord is typically enough to last until the last frost in late April.

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, consider pairing your firewood order with mulch or stone from our Boston area pages to protect garden beds and pathways before the ground freezes.

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack so air can circulate underneath, and keep it away from your house's siding to avoid trapping moisture against the wood. In Boston's humid summers and wet falls, covering just the top of the stack with a tarp while leaving the sides open helps rain run off without sealing in dampness, which is what actually leads to mold and slower drying.
Oak and sugar maple, common in our local mix, burn slower and hotter than softer woods, making them ideal for overnight fires when you want lasting coals through a cold Boston night. Yellow birch lights faster and works well for getting a fire established before adding denser splits, so mixing species in your firebox often gives you the best of both a quick start and long lasting heat.
Order your firewood well before the first hard frost in mid October, since demand across the Boston area climbs fast once temperatures drop and lead times can stretch during the coldest weeks of December and January. Ordering in late summer or early fall also gives freshly split wood extra weeks to finish drying in your own storage space before you need it.
Boston winters run long, with a heating season that typically stretches from the first frost around October 15 well into April, and many homes lean on wood heat to take the edge off oil and gas bills during the coldest stretches. Properly seasoned firewood matters here because our humid summers and damp falls make it easy for wood to hold moisture longer than in drier climates, and green or under seasoned wood burns dirty, throws less heat, and gunks up chimneys with creosote. Local hardwoods like oak, sugar maple, and yellow birch are common around Boston and Eastern Massachusetts, and they need a full six to twelve months of proper seasoning after splitting to drop below the 20 percent moisture mark that makes for a clean, hot burn. Silty loam soils and our elevation near sea level do not affect the wood itself, but our humidity does slow drying compared to drier inland regions, so wood cut and split earlier in the year is safer to count on by the time the first hard frost hits. Buying wood that has already been properly dried before delivery saves you the guesswork of trying to season it yourself in a Boston backyard with limited dry storage space.
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.
