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 occasional weekend fires, a quarter to half cord typically lasts a Concord household through the season, while regular wood heat users should plan on one to two full cords to comfortably cover November through mid March.

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 Piedmont humidity and ground moisture do not wick back up into the split faces. Leave a few inches between rows for airflow, and cover just the top with a tarp rather than wrapping the whole stack, since sealing the sides traps moisture in in our damp climate and slows seasoning instead of helping it.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Hickory and oak from around Concord burn slower and hotter than red maple, so mix species depending on your goal. Start a fire with a few maple splits for quicker catch, then add oak or hickory once you have a good coal bed for a longer, steadier burn through a cold overnight stretch.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost, typically mid November here, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and well seasoned stock can run low. Buying in October or early November also gives any slightly green splits extra weeks of dry Piedmont air before you actually need to burn them.

Wood Heat in Concord

Concord winters run from around November 15 to March 15, roughly four months of cool to cold nights at our 706 foot elevation, and that stretch is long enough that heating with green or half seasoned wood becomes a real problem. Piedmont humidity slows natural drying, so wood cut and split earlier in the year needs a full spring and summer of airflow before it burns clean. Our stock is seasoned hardwood pulled from species common to this part of North Carolina, oak, hickory, and red maple, which are dense enough to throw steady heat through a Concord cold snap. Wood that has not seasoned properly in our clay soil climate tends to smolder, throw more creosote, and leave homeowners feeding the fire all night instead of banking coals. Buying wood that is already dried out for our specific weather pattern means fewer trips to the woodpile and a cleaner burning chimney all season.

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 Concord winter actually take?

Most Concord households burning a few nights a week from November through mid March go through around one half to one full cord as a supplemental heat source, while homeowners who rely on wood heat as their primary source often use two to three cords across the season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for months after splitting until its moisture content drops low enough to ignite easily and burn hot, which matters in Concord because our humid Piedmont air slows drying compared to drier climates, so wood that has not had enough time simply will not perform the same.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I actually get?

Expect a mix of hardwoods common to the Concord area, primarily oak, hickory, and red maple, all known for dense, long burning coals rather than the fast, smoky burn you get from softer woods.

Answer

Is this wood actually sourced near Concord?

Yes, our firewood is cut and seasoned locally near Concord rather than trucked in from another region, which keeps costs down and avoids spreading pests like the emerald ash borer that travel in firewood hauled long distances.

Answer

How does delivery to my house actually work?

You choose a cord size and delivery date, we bring the load out on a truck, and it gets dumped loose in your driveway since stacking is not included, so it helps to have a spot picked out ahead of time.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do the smaller sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet, measured as a stack 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and our quarter, third, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so a half cord is roughly 64 cubic feet and a quarter cord about 32.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Concord?

Cabarrus County occasionally issues air quality advisories on stagnant winter days, so it is worth checking local conditions before a long burn, and using well seasoned wood rather than green or wet wood cuts down on the smoke that contributes to those advisories in the first place.
