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.

For Florence's roughly four month heating season, occasional users typically need a quarter to a third cord, while regular wood burners should plan for a half cord to a full cord to avoid running out during the coldest stretch in January.

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 a pallet or rack, and cover only the top with a tarp, leaving the sides open for airflow. Florence's humidity means fully wrapped wood traps moisture and can start to mold or rot faster than wood left exposed to breeze on the sides. A spot with some sun exposure and distance from your house siding works best for keeping it dry through our wetter months.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak burns slower and hotter, making it a solid choice for overnight fires, while hickory catches faster and works well for building initial heat quickly on a cold evening. Mixing the two lets you get a fast start with hickory kindling and pieces, then bank the fire with oak to hold heat through the night without needing to reload constantly.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in early fall, well before the first frost typically arrives around November 20, since seasoned wood can sell out fast once temperatures start dropping. Buying ahead also gives you time to get everything stacked and settled before you actually need to start pulling logs for nightly fires.

Wood Heat in Florence

Florence winters run from roughly late November through mid March, giving homeowners about a four month stretch where a wood stove or fireplace gets real use. That window, bounded by our typical first frost around November 20 and last frost near March 16, means firewood needs to be dry and ready before the cold settles in, not still drying out in the rack. Our region's humid air makes green wood slow to season properly, so wood that has not had enough time to dry can smolder, smoke up a chimney, and leave creosote buildup instead of good heat. We work with local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and red maple that are common throughout the Shoals area and known for solid, long burning heat once properly seasoned. Buying wood that has already dried through a full season locally means you are getting fuel suited to our silt loam soil and humidity, not wood rushed to market before it is ready.

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 need to get through a Florence winter?

Most Florence households burning a few nights a week from late November through mid March go through somewhere between a half cord and a full cord. If you rely on wood heat as your primary source, or you are heating an older home with less insulation common in some of Florence's historic neighborhoods, you may want a full cord on hand to avoid running short in January.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content after being cut and split, typically six months to a year depending on species and our local humidity. In a climate like Florence's, where summer air holds a lot of moisture, unseasoned wood can still be damp inside even if it looks dry outside, so buying wood that has already gone through a proper seasoning period keeps your fires burning hot and clean instead of smoky.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a Florence delivery?

Expect a mix of oak, hickory, and red maple, all species that grow well in our zone 8a climate and silt loam soil. These hardwoods are dense enough to burn long and hot, which matters when you are trying to keep a house warm through a cold snap in January.

Answer

Is this firewood actually local, and does that matter?

Yes, our firewood is sourced locally near Florence rather than trucked in from far away. Firewood should always be bought near where it is burned because hauling wood long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into areas that are currently free of them, so keeping the supply local protects the trees around your own neighborhood.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway actually work?

Once you choose a cord size, we schedule a delivery window and drop the wood loose in your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan to have it moved into a dry storage spot within a few days, especially given the humidity we get here in the Shoals.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter, a third, a half, and a 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 one fourth of that volume, the third cord is one third, and the half cord is exactly half, so you can scale your order to how much wood storage space you have and how long you expect to be burning through the season.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning firewood in Florence?

Florence does not currently have a formal wood burning advisory program like some larger metro areas, but it is still good practice to check with local fire codes before burning outdoors, especially during dry stretches in fall before our first frost typically arrives around November 20.
