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.

Easy to order, great service, and great product. We enjoy the final look of a very neglected beds we inherited!

For most Farmington Hills households, a half cord covers a moderate burning routine through the winter, while a full cord suits those who heat primarily with wood from first frost to last frost.

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 Farmington Hills, Michigan

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your delivered wood off the ground on pallets or a rack, since Farmington Hills clay loam soil holds moisture and can wick dampness straight into your pile. Leave the top loosely covered but the sides open to airflow, because fully wrapping a stack traps humidity. A south or west facing spot that catches afternoon sun helps any residual moisture evaporate before the first hard freeze settles in around mid October.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Before loading the stove, split a piece open and check the color and feel of the interior wood. Properly seasoned oak or hickory should look pale and feel light for its size, and two pieces knocked together should produce a sharp crack rather than a dull thud. If a piece feels heavy and cool to the touch, set it aside to dry a bit longer near the top of your stack.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your cord well before the first frost lands around October 12, since demand across Oakland County climbs fast once temperatures drop and driveway access gets trickier after early snow. Ordering in late summer or early fall also gives your wood extra weeks to finish drying in Farmington Hills's outdoor air before you need it for steady winter heating.

Wood Heat in Farmington Hills

Farmington Hills winters stretch from that first frost around October 12 to last frost near May 3, which means a long stretch of cold, damp evenings that call for a reliable wood stove or fireplace routine. Southeast Michigan's humidity makes green or under seasoned wood a real problem, since unseasoned logs hiss, smoke, and throw off far less heat when burned in a clay loam climate zone 6b winter. Our wood is properly seasoned hardwood, split and dried down to the moisture level that actually burns hot and clean here. Local species like oak, hickory, and maple are common in Farmington Hills yards and woodlots, and they season and burn differently than softer woods, so knowing what you are getting matters. Buying seasoned local wood also protects the mature oak and ash canopy that lines so many Farmington Hills streets and subdivisions.

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 Farmington Hills winter actually require?

Homeowners who burn several nights a week from October through early May, given our frost window of October 12 to May 3, generally go through a half cord to a full cord depending on how much they rely on the stove or fireplace for supplemental heat versus ambiance.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been split and dried long enough that its internal moisture has dropped to a burnable range, which matters in our humid clay loam region because green wood pulled straight from a Farmington Hills backyard can smolder, smoke, and creosote up a chimney fast.

Answer

What kinds of wood should I expect in my delivery?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to Oakland County properties, mainly oak, hickory, and maple, all sourced and split near Farmington Hills before delivery.

Answer

Is this firewood actually local, and does that matter?

Yes, we source close to Farmington Hills rather than trucking wood in from far away, because moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new neighborhoods, and our local ash trees have already taken a hit from that pest.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a drop off date before winter weather complicates driveway access, and the wood is unloaded loose at your driveway edge for you to move and stack as you like.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do your sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and our quarter cord, third cord, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so you can order exactly what your storage space and burning habits call for.

Answer

Are there any local rules I should know about burning firewood?

Southeast Michigan air quality advisories sometimes discourage outdoor burning on stagnant winter days, so it is worth checking local advisories before large bonfires, though indoor wood stove and fireplace use for heating is standard practice throughout Farmington Hills.
