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.

I have ordered twice now, a pleasure to deal with, easy and fast delivery, beautiful mulch!

Most Denton households land between a half cord and a full cord for a typical winter, depending on how often the fireplace or wood stove gets used during the November through March stretch.

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, pair your firewood order with mulch or soil from our Denton area page to protect flower beds and tree roots from the clay loam soil's swings between wet and dry.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on a pallet or rack so Denton's clay loam soil does not wick moisture up into the bottom rows. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover only the top of the stack, since fully wrapping a pile traps humidity underneath and can undo the seasoning you paid for.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Texas red oak and post oak both burn long and hot once seasoned, making them a solid choice for the coldest nights, while pecan lights a bit easier and works well for getting a fire going before adding oak splits to hold the heat. A quick moisture meter reading below 20 percent tells you a split is ready to burn clean.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order before the first hard frost typically arrives in mid November, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and local seasoned supply can tighten during a sudden cold snap. Ordering early also gives freshly delivered wood extra weeks to finish drying in your stack before you need it most.

Wood Heat in Denton

Denton sits in growing zone 8a, which means our cold snaps arrive fast between the first frost around November 16 and the last frost near March 15, but they rarely last long. That short, sharp heating season means homeowners need wood that lights fast and burns hot right away, not green wood still fighting off moisture. Our local mix leans on Texas red oak, post oak, and pecan, all dense hardwoods that hold heat well once properly dried. North Texas humidity can slow down a wood pile's drying time if it is stacked poorly, so we season our supply well before delivery so you are not gambling on a smoky, hissing fire in your fireplace or wood stove. With clay loam soil common across Denton yards, ground contact moisture is a real risk for stored wood, which is another reason seasoned, dry splits matter here more than in drier climates.

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 will I actually need to get through a Denton winter?

Denton's heating season is shorter than northern climates, generally running from mid November to mid March, so most households burning a few nights a week get through the season on a half cord to a full cord. If you use your fireplace mainly for ambiance on cold snaps rather than daily heat, a quarter or third cord is often plenty.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content instead of being freshly cut, or green. In a humid area like Denton, green wood can smolder, smoke heavily, and gunk up your chimney with creosote, so we only deliver wood that has already been split and dried before it reaches your driveway.

Answer

What kind of wood will I get with a Denton delivery?

Expect a mix of Texas red oak, post oak, and pecan sourced from around the Denton area. These are dense native hardwoods that burn hot and steady, which suits our shorter but sometimes sharply cold winter nights.

Answer

Is this really local wood, and does that matter?

Yes, we source close to Denton rather than trucking wood in from far away. Firewood should always be bought near where it will be burned because hauling it long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas, something local foresters actively try to prevent.

Answer

How does delivery to my house actually work?

We deliver your order loose to your driveway rather than stacked, so you will want a clear space ready before the truck arrives. Stacking is not included, so plan to move and stack it yourself soon after drop off to keep it drying properly.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do your smaller 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 is roughly a quarter of that volume, the third cord about a third, and the half cord half of a full cord, so you can size your order to match your fireplace use without paying for wood you will not burn this season.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Denton?

Denton occasionally issues air quality advisories during North Texas ozone season, though those mainly affect outdoor burning rather than indoor fireplace or wood stove use. It is still worth checking local notices during unusually still, hazy stretches before planning an outdoor fire pit night.
