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 needed 3 yards of top soil and that's what I got! Right on time and right where I asked it to be placed (Order# 2041).

For a typical Flint heating season, plan on one to two full cords if you burn several nights a week, or two to three cords if wood is your primary heat source through the long Zone 5b winter.

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 firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so Flint's snowmelt and spring thaw do not wick moisture back into the bottom rows. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top of the stack, keeping the sides open so humidity can escape rather than get trapped underneath a full tarp.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak burns longest and is ideal for overnight coals, while maple lights faster and works well for building a quick fire on a frigid Flint evening. Test moisture with a simple squeeze or a moisture meter reading under 20 percent before burning indoors, since wetter wood produces more smoke and creosote.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood before the first frost hits around October 5 so it has time to finish drying and you are not scrambling once temperatures drop. Buying early in late summer or early fall also means better availability, since local seasoned hardwood supply tightens up fast once Flint's cold weather sets in for good.

Wood Heat in Flint

Flint winters stretch from that first frost around October 5 clear through the last frost near May 5, which means local wood stoves and fireplaces often see seven months of use. Sandy clay soils around Genesee County support strong stands of oak, maple, and ash, and these local hardwoods burn hot and steady once properly seasoned. Green wood struggles here because Michigan humidity slows drying, so wood needs a full season or more under cover to drop below 20 percent moisture. Seasoned hardwood lights easier in a Zone 5b cold snap and produces far less creosote buildup in chimneys during long burns. Burning unseasoned wood in a Flint winter means more trips to the wood pile and a smokier, less efficient fire. Sourcing wood seasoned specifically for our region matters more than people expect once the deep cold sets in.

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 Flint winter?

Most Flint households burning a few nights a week from October through April go through one half cord to a full cord. Homes that heat primarily with wood through our long Zone 5b season often use two to three full cords, especially during stretches of sustained cold in January and February.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for at least six months to a year until moisture content drops below 20 percent. In Flint's humid climate, green wood holds moisture longer than in drier regions, so unseasoned wood smokes more, burns cooler, and builds up creosote faster in your chimney.

Answer

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

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to Genesee County, primarily oak, maple, and ash, all sourced and seasoned specifically for our region rather than shipped in from elsewhere.

Answer

Why does it matter that the firewood is sourced locally?

Moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread from county to county. Our wood stays close to Flint from cutting to delivery, which keeps local ash stands healthier and follows the buy local burn local guidance foresters recommend statewide.

Answer

How does delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery window, and the wood is dropped loose in your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan for space to unload and stack it yourself once it arrives.

Answer

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

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, 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 that stack, giving Flint homeowners flexible options depending on how much storage space and burning you plan for.

Answer

Is there anything I should know about burning wood in Flint city limits?

Genesee County occasionally issues air quality advisories on stagnant winter days, and well seasoned hardwood burns cleaner and produces less visible smoke than green wood, which helps you stay considerate of neighbors during those advisory periods.
