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!

For occasional use, a quarter to half cord usually covers an Elwood winter, while daily woodstove users should plan on a full cord or more to last through the season.

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 air can move underneath, since Elwood's humid air and wet winters can wick moisture up into a pile sitting directly on soil. Leave the top loosely covered with a tarp but keep the sides open for airflow. A stack against a south facing wall gets extra sun exposure, which helps keep it dry between the frequent damp spells common to Long Island winters.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory from local Suffolk County woodlots burn long and steady, making them your best bet for overnight coals during the coldest stretches between December and February. Ash lights faster and works well as a starter wood before you add denser splits. A quick moisture test with an inexpensive meter should read under 20 percent before you count a piece as ready to burn.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before Elwood's first frost around November 1, since seasoned wood supply tightens up once cold weather actually arrives and everyone else starts calling at once. Ordering in September or early October gives you time to stack and settle the wood before you need it, rather than scrambling for delivery during the first cold snap.

Wood Heat in Elwood

Elwood sits in zone 7b on Long Island, but that does not mean a short heating season. Homeowners here typically burn from the first frost around November 1 through the last frost near April 27, a stretch of nearly six months where a woodstove or fireplace gets real use. Long Island's humid air makes unseasoned wood a poor choice, green logs cut locally can take a full year or more to dry properly in this climate, and burning them wastes heat and builds creosote fast. Our wood is seasoned hardwood, mostly oak and hickory with some ash and maple mixed in, species common to the sandy loam woodlots around Suffolk County. Because it is already dried down, it lights easier and burns hotter through Elwood's damp winter nights. Buying wood that is already seasoned means you are ready to burn the day it hits your driveway, not months later.

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 an Elwood winter?

Most Elwood households burning a couple times a week from November through April go through a half cord to a full cord. If your woodstove is your main heat source rather than a backup to oil or gas, plan on one to two full cords to cover the entire frost to frost stretch.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been cut, split, and dried down to a low moisture content, usually under 20 percent, before delivery. In Elwood's humid coastal air, green wood dries slowly and can smolder instead of burn clean, so seasoned wood is what gives you a hot, efficient fire without excess smoke.

Answer

What kind of wood will I get delivered in Elwood?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods, mainly oak and hickory with some ash and maple. Oak and hickory burn long and hot, good for overnight fires, while ash lights quickly and is easy to get a fire going with.

Answer

Is this firewood actually local, and does that matter?

Yes, our wood is sourced near Elwood rather than trucked in from far away. Keeping firewood local matters because moving wood long distances is how pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so buying and burning near where the wood was cut protects the trees in your own neighborhood.

Answer

How does delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size, schedule a delivery window, and we bring the wood loose to your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan to have a tarp or storage spot ready when the truck arrives.

Answer

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

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. A half cord is half that volume, a third cord is roughly a third, and a quarter cord is a quarter of that stacked measurement, so you can scale your order to match how much storage space and burning you plan to do this season.

Answer

Is there anything I should know about burning rules or air quality in this area?

Long Island can see air quality advisories on especially still, cold winter days, so it is worth checking local notices before lighting up during a stagnant air event. Burning fully seasoned hardwood instead of green or wet wood also cuts down on smoke output, which helps on those marginal air days.
