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.

Online ordering was really simple and I liked the transparent pricing.

For a typical Charlottesville heating season, plan on one to two cords for supplemental use, or up to three cords if wood is your main heat source through the coldest stretches.

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.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails so our clay soil's dampness does not wick moisture back into the bottom rows. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover just the top of the stack, keeping the sides open so humidity can escape rather than get trapped, which is especially important given how muggy our summers and shoulder seasons run here.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak takes longer to catch but burns longest and hottest, making it ideal for overnight fires during Charlottesville's coldest January stretches. Hickory lights a bit easier and burns hot too, so mixing a few hickory pieces in with oak at the base of your fire helps it catch faster while still giving you long, steady heat through the night.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the first frost typically arrives around October 15. Waiting until the first cold snap means competing with every other homeowner scrambling for wood at once, and getting it delivered and stacked early gives it extra weeks to finish drying in our humid air before you actually need to burn it.

Wood Heat in Charlottesville

Charlottesville winters run cool and damp from mid October through mid April, with our zone 7a frost window and clay soils holding moisture in the air long after storms pass. That humidity means wood that looks dry on the outside can still be green inside, and green wood smokes, creosotes up chimneys, and burns cold. Our firewood is seasoned locally before delivery, so the oak, hickory, and ash common to this region has had time to drop its moisture content down to burnable levels. With a heating season that stretches nearly six months here, having a dry, ready to burn supply on hand from the first cold snap matters more than in shorter winter climates.

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 need to get through a Charlottesville winter?

With our heating season running from around October 15 to April 15, most homeowners burning several nights a week for supplemental heat use about one to two full cords. If wood is your primary heat source through our clay soil region's damp cold snaps, plan closer to three cords.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried enough, usually six months to a year after splitting, that its internal moisture content has dropped well below what fresh cut green wood holds. In our humid Piedmont climate, unseasoned wood struggles to dry on its own once stacked outside, so buying pre-seasoned wood avoids the smoky, low heat fires and creosote buildup that green wood causes in chimneys here.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to the Charlottesville area, mainly oak, hickory, and ash, all known for dense, long, hot burns that suit our long cold season well.

Answer

Is this firewood sourced locally, and does that actually matter?

Yes, all of our firewood is sourced near Charlottesville. Moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread between regions, so buying and burning wood cut close to home helps protect the hardwood stands around our area.

Answer

How does delivery work, and will you stack it for me?

We deliver your order loose to your driveway on the scheduled date. Stacking is not included, so plan to move it to your storage spot within a day or two, especially given how quickly humidity here can start affecting an unstacked pile.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do your sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord, third cord, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so a half cord is 64 cubic feet and a quarter cord is 32 cubic feet, letting you match the order to your storage space and how much you burn each winter.

Answer

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

Charlottesville and Albemarle County occasionally issue air quality advisories during winter inversions when smoke can settle low over the valley. Burning well seasoned wood, rather than green or wet wood, produces far less smoke and helps you stay a good neighbor during those advisory days.
