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 a Columbus winter, occasional burners typically need a half cord to one cord, while homes relying on wood heat through the full October to April season should plan for two to four cords.

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 it is not sitting in Columbus's damp silt loam soil, and keep the top covered but the sides open to airflow. Our humid summers and wet fall weather mean uncovered wood on bare ground can reabsorb moisture fast, undoing months of seasoning. A simple lean to roof or tarp angled to shed rain works better than fully wrapping the pile.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory from around Bartholomew County both burn hot and slow, making them ideal for overnight coals during our coldest January stretches, while hard maple lights faster and is great for getting a fire going quickly on a chilly October evening. Mixing species in your firebox lets you get a fast start from maple and long lasting heat from the oak and hickory.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your seasoned wood well before the first frost typically arrives around October 8, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and delivery windows fill up. Buying early also gives you a chance to restack and organize your supply before you actually need it for those first cold nights of the season.

Wood Heat in Columbus

Columbus, Indiana sits in growing zone 6b with a heating season that typically runs from the first frost around October 8 through the last frost near April 29, meaning wood stoves and fireplaces around town can see over six months of use. Local hardwood species like oak, hickory, and hard maple are common in Bartholomew County and they need real time to season properly before they burn clean. With Indiana's humid summers, freshly cut wood holds a lot of moisture, and burning it before it drops to a safe level fills chimneys with creosote and produces far less heat. Our firewood is seasoned in advance so it is ready to burn when it hits your driveway, which matters most during the coldest stretches of a Columbus winter when you need dependable heat, not a wet fire that smokes and struggles. Buying wood that has already gone through a proper drying cycle also protects your flue and your fuel efficiency across our long heating months.

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 does a typical Columbus winter actually use?

Most homes here using a wood stove as a primary heat source burn through three to four full cords across our roughly six month heating stretch from the October frost to late April, while homes burning occasional evening fires often get by on a half cord to a cord.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a safe moisture range after cutting, and in our humid Indiana climate that process takes many months outdoors under cover. Burning unseasoned wood in a Columbus winter leads to smoky, low heat fires and creosote buildup in your chimney, so we only deliver wood that has already gone through that drying period.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get?

Expect a mix of hardwoods common to south central Indiana, mainly oak, hickory, and hard maple, all known for dense, long burning coals that hold heat well through overnight cold snaps.

Answer

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

Yes, all of our wood is sourced near Columbus rather than trucked in from far away. Keeping firewood local is important because moving wood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so buying local helps protect the trees still standing around Bartholomew County.

Answer

How does delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery date, and the wood is dropped loose in your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your storage spot yourself or with help.

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. Our quarter cord is one fourth of that volume, our third cord is one third, our half cord is exactly half, and a full cord gives you the entire 128 cubic feet for homes that burn wood as a main heat source through the whole season.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Columbus?

Check with the Bartholomew County health department or your local fire code before installing or heavily using an outdoor wood burner, since some municipalities restrict outdoor boilers or require setback distances, and always keep flues clean since dense hardwoods like ours burn hot but still need regular chimney maintenance.
