Easy to order, great service, and great product. We enjoy the final look of a very neglected beds we inherited!

For a typical Colorado Springs winter, occasional fireplace users should plan on a quarter to half cord, while primary wood heat households often need one to two full cords to make it through to the May thaw.

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.

I recently ordered from mulch mound and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The entire process, from placing the order to delivery was seamless and efficient. The mulch arrived exactly on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. The color was rich and consistent, and I received more than enough to complete my project with proper coverage and packing.

Customer service was equally outstanding. Communication was clear, and the team was responsive and professional throughout. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both a high-quality product and excellent service, but mulch mound did just that.

Highly recommended, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack to keep it away from melting snow and spring mud, and cover only the top of the stack with a tarp so air can still move through the sides. Colorado Springs's dry air helps wood stay seasoned, but trapped moisture under a full tarp can undo months of proper drying, especially after a wet spring snow.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

When building a fire with local oak or ash, start with a smaller kindling base of softer wood before adding split hardwood, since dense pieces take longer to catch at our elevation where oxygen is thinner. A simple moisture meter reading below 20 percent on a freshly split face confirms the wood is truly ready to burn efficiently.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost typically arrives around October 1, since demand climbs quickly once nighttime temperatures drop. Buying early also gives any slightly less dry pieces extra weeks to finish seasoning in your own storage before you need them on the coldest nights.

Wood Heat in Colorado Springs

Colorado Springs sits at 6,035 feet with a heating season that stretches from early October frost through mid May, which means woodstoves and fireplaces often run for seven months straight. Properly seasoned hardwood is essential here because our dry, low humidity air can trick people into burning wood that looks dry on the outside but still holds moisture in the core. Green or under seasoned wood burns cooler, throws more creosote into the chimney, and struggles to keep a home warm through the long Front Range cold snaps. We season locally sourced oak, ash, and cottonwood down to a proper moisture level before it ever reaches your driveway. At our elevation and dry climate, well seasoned wood also lights faster and burns more evenly, which matters when overnight temperatures regularly drop below freezing for months. Choosing local, seasoned hardwood is simply the most reliable way to stay warm through a Colorado Springs winter.

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 Colorado Springs winter?

Most homeowners who burn several nights a week from October through May go through one to two full cords, while occasional weekend burners often do fine with a half cord or one third cord. Our long heating season and cold overnight temperatures at elevation mean it pays to order slightly more than you think you need.

Answer

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

Seasoned firewood has been dried for months until its internal moisture content drops low enough to burn hot and clean. In our dry climate it is easy to assume all wood is dry, but unseasoned wood still burns poorly, smokes more, and builds creosote faster, which is a real concern during our long, cold burning season.

Answer

What kind of firewood species will I get?

We deliver a mix of local hardwoods common to the Front Range, primarily oak, ash, and cottonwood, all sourced within the region. These species are well suited to Colorado Springs winters because they burn long and hot once properly seasoned.

Answer

Is your firewood really sourced locally, and does that matter?

Yes, all of our firewood is sourced near Colorado Springs rather than trucked in from other regions. Buying local firewood helps prevent the spread of invasive pests like the emerald ash borer, which can travel in firewood moved long distances and threaten local tree populations.

Answer

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

We deliver your order loose to your driveway on the scheduled date, but stacking is not included so you can arrange your storage setup however works best for your property. Many customers stack near a garage wall or under an overhang to keep it dry through our snowy months.

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 are simply fractional portions of that same full cord measurement, so you can order the exact amount that fits your woodstove usage and storage space.

Answer

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

Colorado Springs and El Paso County occasionally issue high pollution advisory days that ask residents to limit wood burning, especially during winter inversions when cold air traps smoke close to the ground. It is worth checking local air quality alerts on especially still, cold days before lighting a fire.
