About this firewood

A third of a cord of seasoned hardwood, 43 cubic feet, split and ready to burn. A steady size for regular weekend fires once the cold sets in.

I needed 3 yards of top soil and that's what I got! Right on time and right where I asked it to be placed (Order# 2041).

For occasional fires plan on a quarter to half cord, and for households heating primarily with wood through Cleveland's long cold season, one to two full cords is a safer target.

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.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

While you are prepping for winter, take a look at our mulch and stone options for Cleveland yards, since a fresh layer of mulch around beds now helps insulate root systems in our clay soil before the ground freezes.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or a rack so Cleveland's damp fall rains and spring thaw do not wick moisture back into the wood from below. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover just the top of the stack rather than wrapping it entirely, since trapped humidity under a full tarp can undo the seasoning you already paid for.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hard maple take longer to catch than ash, so build your fire with a smaller ash split or two to get things going, then add denser oak once you have solid coals. This layering approach burns more efficiently and gets more heat out of each log during Cleveland's coldest nights.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall before the October frost hits, since local supply tightens up once temperatures drop and everyone is scrambling at once. Ordering early also gives any slightly less dry splits extra weeks to finish seasoning in your own storage area before you actually need them.

Wood Heat in Cleveland

Cleveland winters run long, with a first frost around October 1 and cold weather often lingering past the May 10 last frost date, which means woodstoves and fireplaces can see six or more months of steady use. Our zone 6b climate combined with lake effect humidity makes unseasoned wood a real problem here, because green logs trap moisture that struggles to evaporate in our damp air and ends up smoking, hissing, and creosote building in the chimney. We source seasoned hardwood, mostly oak, hard maple, and ash, species that grow throughout the Cleveland area and split well while burning long and hot once properly dried. Properly seasoned wood has had months to drop its moisture content, so it lights easier and burns cleaner even during the wettest Cleveland stretches of fall and spring. For older Cleveland homes with drafty windows and clay soil yards that hold water, dry firewood on hand before the first hard freeze makes a real difference in comfort and heating costs.

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 Cleveland winter

Most Cleveland households burning a few nights a week for supplemental heat use around half a cord to a full cord per season, while homeowners relying on wood as a primary heat source through our long stretch of cold, often from October into April or May, can burn two to three full cords. Your exact number depends on stove efficiency, house size, and how often you build a fire.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been split and air dried for months until its internal moisture drops low enough to burn cleanly. In Cleveland's humid lake effect climate, green or freshly cut wood struggles to dry on its own and tends to smolder, smoke, and build creosote in your chimney, so buying wood that is already seasoned saves you the guesswork and the wait.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a Cleveland delivery

Expect a mix of hardwoods common to Northeast Ohio, mainly oak, hard maple, and ash, all locally sourced and split. These species are dense, burn long, and hold heat well through cold snaps, which is exactly what you want during a Cleveland cold front.

Answer

Is this firewood actually local, and does that matter

Yes, all of our firewood is sourced near Cleveland rather than trucked in from far away. This matters because moving firewood long distances is how invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread from one region to another, so buying local and burning local helps protect the trees still standing in our neighborhoods and parks.

Answer

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

We deliver your order loose directly to your driveway on the scheduled date. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your storage area yourself or with help, especially if you are ordering a half cord or more.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do your sizes compare

A full cord is a stacked pile measuring 128 cubic feet, which works out to 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is roughly a quarter of that stacked volume, the third cord about a third, and the half cord half the pile, so you can scale your order to how much wood storage space and heating need you actually have.

Answer

Are there any local rules I should know about before burning firewood in Cleveland

Cleveland and Cuyahoga County occasionally issue air quality advisories during stagnant winter weather, so it is worth checking local notices on high pollution days and limiting unnecessary burning then. Otherwise, seasoned hardwood burns cleaner than green wood and produces far less smoke, which helps you stay a good neighbor throughout the heating season.
