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.

Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

For most Franklin homes, a half cord covers a typical winter of occasional fires, while a full cord is the safer bet if you heat with wood regularly or have an older, less efficient fireplace.

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 Franklin, Tennessee

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on a pallet or rack, since Franklin's humid summers and occasional heavy winter rain can wick moisture up into a bottom row sitting directly on soil. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top with a tarp, keeping the sides open so trapped humidity does not undo the seasoning you already paid for.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Hickory and oak both burn hot and long once fully seasoned, but hickory tends to throw more sparks, so keep your screen closed if you are using it in an open hearth. Split ash lights faster and makes solid kindling wood for starting a fire before you add denser splits to hold heat overnight.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your wood before the first frost, typically around October 26 in Franklin, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and popular sizes can sell out during the coldest weeks of January. Ordering early also gives your wood extra weeks to finish drying in your own stack before you need it most.

Wood Heat in Franklin

Franklin sits in zone 7b at roughly 643 feet of elevation, which means a real but moderate heating season running from late October frost through early April. That is a solid five months of fireplace and wood stove use for most Williamson County homes, especially the older farmhouses and newer builds with masonry fireplaces around downtown and Cool Springs. Our wood is oak, hickory, and ash cut locally and seasoned six months or more, because Middle Tennessee humidity keeps green wood from drying properly on its own if left stacked too tight or too wet. Burning unseasoned wood in that humidity means more creosote, more smoke, and a lot less heat for your money. Seasoned local hardwood solves that problem and burns hot and clean through our coldest stretches in January and February.

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 Franklin winter?

Most Franklin households burning a few nights a week from late October through early April go through a half cord to a full cord, while daily burners in older farmhouses with less efficient fireplaces often use more. Weekend or occasional fires usually only need a quarter or a third cord.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for six months or more after splitting, dropping its moisture content low enough to burn clean instead of smoldering. In Middle Tennessee's humid summers, green wood dries slower than in drier climates, so buying already seasoned wood saves you a season of frustration with smoky, hard to light fires.

Answer

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

Expect a mix of oak, hickory, and ash, all sourced from within the local area. These are the dense hardwoods that grow throughout Williamson County and hold heat well once seasoned, giving you longer, steadier burns than softer woods.

Answer

Is this firewood really cut locally, and does that matter?

Yes, all of our wood is sourced near Franklin rather than trucked in from other regions. Buying local matters because moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread from one area to another, and keeping wood local helps protect the trees still standing in your own neighborhood.

Answer

How does delivery work, and will you stack it for me?

We deliver your order loose to the driveway on the date you schedule, but stacking is not included, so plan to move and stack it yourself or with help soon after drop off, especially if rain is in the forecast.

Answer

What is a rick, and how does it compare to your cord sizes?

Around Franklin you will sometimes hear people ask for a rick, which is regional shorthand for a partial cord, usually close to a third of a full cord. To keep things clear we sell in exact fractions, a quarter cord, a third cord, a half cord, and a full cord, so you know precisely what volume you are getting instead of guessing at a rick's size.

Answer

How is a full cord actually measured?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet, stacked 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is one fourth of that stack, our third cord is one third, our half cord is exactly half, and the full cord is the entire 128 cubic foot stack.
