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.

We had a great experience with mulch mound! Our mulch arrived when we requested. The delivery fee was so reasonable. We’ll use them again for sure!

Occasional fireplace use through a Cumming winter usually calls for a quarter to half cord, while regular wood stove heat from November through early April often requires a full cord or more.

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.

Areas we deliver firewood in Cumming, Georgia

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Georgia's humidity means firewood left uncovered will reabsorb moisture even after it is delivered seasoned. Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails, keep it away from your house foundation, and cover just the top of the stack with a tarp while leaving the sides open for airflow. A fully wrapped pile traps moisture against the clay soil below and can undo months of proper seasoning within a few wet weeks.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory take a bit longer to catch than red maple, so build your fire with maple or smaller split pieces first to get coals going, then add oak or hickory once the fire is established. This gives you a longer, steadier burn through cold January nights without babysitting the fireplace every twenty minutes.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order before the first frost hits in early November rather than waiting for the first genuinely cold night. Local seasoned wood supply tightens up once temperatures drop across Forsyth County, and ordering early also gives your pile a few extra weeks to finish drying in your own stacked storage before you need it.

Wood Heat in Cumming

Cumming sits in growing zone 7b at about 1,345 feet elevation, which means a real but moderate heating season stretching from the first frost around November 5 to the last frost around April 5. That is close to five months where a wood stove or fireplace insert can make a noticeable dent in a Forsyth County heating bill. Georgia's humidity means green wood cut locally can take six months to a year to season properly, so buying wood that has already been split and dried saves you a winter of smoky, hard to light fires. Our hardwood mix leans on oak, hickory, and red maple pulled from the North Georgia piedmont, species that hold heat well once they are properly seasoned. Because the wood is sourced near Cumming rather than trucked in from out of state, it is already acclimated to our clay soil and humidity, so it burns cleaner and hotter than wood shipped long distances.

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 Cumming winter?

For a household that burns two to three nights a week from November through early April, a half cord to a full cord usually covers the season. If you are running a wood stove as a primary heat source rather than just occasional fireplace nights, plan closer to a cord and a half.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content, usually under 20 percent, after being cut and split. With Georgia's humidity, wood left in the round can take a year or more to dry on its own, so buying pre seasoned wood means you are not fighting hissing, smoky logs the first cold night of the year.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get delivered?

Our mix is sourced from hardwoods common to the North Georgia piedmont, mainly oak, hickory, and red maple. Oak and hickory burn long and hot, which is useful once temperatures dip in December and January, while maple lights easier for quick evening fires.

Answer

Why does it matter that the wood is sourced near Cumming instead of somewhere cheaper further away?

Firewood is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread between regions, since insects and larvae can hide inside bark and travel with the logs. Keeping our wood sourced locally near Cumming means it never crosses state lines or long distances before it reaches your driveway.

Answer

How does delivery actually work once I order?

You choose your cord size, pick a delivery date, and our truck drops the wood loose at the edge of your driveway. There is no stacking service included, so plan on moving it to a rack or covered area yourself within a few days, especially if rain is in the forecast.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, half cord, and full cord?

A full cord is a stacked pile measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, totaling 128 cubic feet. A half cord is half that volume and a quarter cord is a quarter of it, so sizing down just means a smaller stacked footprint for lighter burners.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Forsyth County?

Forsyth County does not currently restrict routine residential wood burning, but on high ozone or poor air quality days the Georgia Environmental Protection Division sometimes issues advisories recommending residents limit unnecessary outdoor and open burning. Using seasoned wood in an enclosed stove or fireplace insert, rather than green wood in an open pit, produces far less smoke on those days.
