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.

Online ordering was really simple and I liked the transparent pricing.

For most Fort Mill households, a half cord to a full cord covers a typical November through March heating season, depending on how many nights a week you burn.

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 the yard for winter, check out our mulch and soil options sourced for Fort Mill's red clay, which help protect flower beds through our shorter frost window from November to mid March.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack, since Fort Mill's red clay holds moisture and can wick dampness right back into wood left directly on the soil. Keep the stack loosely covered on top but open on the sides so humid air can still move through. A spot with morning sun and afternoon shade near the house works well and keeps wood dry through our wetter winter stretches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory take longer to catch than softer woods, so start your fire with smaller kindling pieces and let it build before adding a full split log. A quick moisture check with an inexpensive meter should read below 20 percent for good seasoned burning. Wood reading higher than that will hiss and smoke instead of catching a clean flame.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in early fall, ideally before October, so it has time to settle into our local humidity before the November 8 frost hits. Waiting until the first cold snap often means scrambling for delivery slots right when everyone else in Fort Mill has the same idea, so getting ahead of the rush saves you from a chilly wait.

Wood Heat in Fort Mill

Fort Mill winters run from around the first frost on November 8 through the last frost near March 15, which gives homeowners a real heating season of roughly four months, especially on the cold snaps that roll through the Piedmont. Wood that has not been properly seasoned struggles to burn hot in our humid Carolina air, producing more smoke and creosote buildup in the chimney. Local hardwoods like red oak, hickory, and white oak are common around Fort Mill and season well because they are dense enough to hold heat through a long, cold evening. Buying wood that has already dried down near York County means it has adjusted to our regional humidity instead of arriving wet from a different climate. That local seasoning is the difference between a fire that struggles to catch and one that throws steady heat all night. Since our clay soil holds moisture, wood stored improperly on the ground here can reabsorb dampness fast, so sourcing dry, ready to burn wood matters even more.

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 Fort Mill winter?

Most Fort Mill homes burning a few nights a week from November through mid March go through about a half cord to a full cord, while daily wood stove users often need one and a half to two cords across the season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for months after splitting so its moisture content is low enough to burn cleanly, which matters in our humid Piedmont climate because green wood here can smolder and coat your chimney with creosote instead of burning hot.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a Fort Mill delivery?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to this part of South Carolina, mainly red oak, white oak, and hickory, all of which are dense enough to burn long and hot once properly seasoned.

Answer

Is this firewood sourced locally, and does that matter?

Yes, our firewood is sourced near Fort Mill, and buying local matters because hauling firewood long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas, so keeping wood close to where it is cut and burned protects the region's trees.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway actually work?

We schedule a delivery window, bring the load by truck, and drop it loose in your driveway, so you will want a clear, flat spot ready since stacking and moving it to storage is on your end.

Answer

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

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and our quarter, half, and three quarter cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked measurement, so you can size your order to your fireplace habits without overbuying.

Answer

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

York County does not typically issue burn bans for contained fireplace and wood stove use, but during unusually dry or high pollen stretches it is worth checking local air quality advisories before burning heavily on back to back nights.
