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.

For most Boulder homes, a half cord to a full cord covers a normal heating season, while households using wood as a primary heat source through the full frost window should plan on a cord and a half.

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.

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

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails so snowmelt and spring runoff do not wick moisture back into the bottom rows. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and angle the top of the stack or cover it loosely so precipitation sheds off rather than pooling. Boulder's dry air helps wood stay seasoned once it is stacked correctly, but a wet base row will smoke and smolder all winter no matter how dry the rest of the pile is.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Local oak and ash both burn long and hot, making them solid choices for overnight burns during Boulder's coldest stretches. Start fires with smaller split pieces or kindling to get coals established, then add larger splits once the fire is established. A quick moisture check with a simple pinch or knock test, listening for a hollow crack rather than a dull thud, can tell you if a piece is truly ready to burn.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost typically hits in early October, since demand climbs fast once nighttime temperatures drop and popular local species can run short. Buying early also gives any surface moisture picked up during delivery time to dry out before you actually need to rely on the stove for warmth.

Wood Heat in Boulder

Boulder's heating season stretches from early October frost through May, which means woodstoves and fireplaces here often run six or seven months out of the year. At 5,430 feet, the dry mountain air actually helps firewood season faster than in humid climates, but only if the wood was properly split and stacked before it reached your driveway. Green or under seasoned wood struggles to catch and burns dirty in Boulder's thin air, leaving more creosote in chimneys during our long cold stretches. We deliver seasoned hardwood, mostly local oak and ash, that has already dried to a low moisture content so it lights easily and burns hot from the first cord to the last. Front Range winters can swing from mild afternoons to sudden hard freezes, so having dry, ready to burn wood on hand matters more here than in places with shorter, milder winters.

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 Boulder winter?

Most Boulder households burning a few nights a week from October through April go through half a cord to a full cord, while those relying on a wood stove as a primary heat source often need one and a half to two cords across the season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content after being cut and split, typically six months to a year depending on species, so it lights faster and burns cleaner. In Boulder's dry climate this process happens efficiently, but wood cut and sold green will hiss, smoke, and struggle to catch even after a long fall of curing time.

Answer

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

Expect a mix of local hardwoods like oak and ash, both of which split well and burn long and hot, making them well suited to Boulder's colder overnight temperatures at elevation.

Answer

Is this firewood actually sourced near Boulder?

Yes, all of our firewood is sourced locally near Boulder rather than trucked in from out of state, which matters because moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new forests.

Answer

How does delivery to my house actually work?

We drop the wood loose at your driveway on the scheduled date, and since stacking is not included, it helps to have a tarp or space cleared ahead of time so you can move it before Boulder's next snow.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a half cord, and a full cord?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. A quarter cord is about a third of that stack, a third cord is roughly one third of a full cord, and a half cord is exactly half the volume, so you can scale your order to how much wood storage space you have at your Boulder home.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Boulder?

Boulder County periodically issues air quality advisories during winter inversions that ask residents to limit unnecessary wood burning, so it is worth checking local notices on high pollution days and saving your stove use for when you actually need the heat.
