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.

Wonderful experience! They put the mulch exactly where we wanted. This mulch spread very easily and didn’t have the usual “mulch smell.” We will definitely use again!

For an average Georgetown winter running late October to mid April, plan on a half cord for occasional use, a full cord for regular weekly fires, and up to two cords if wood is your primary heat source.

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, pair your firewood order with mulch or soil from our Georgetown regional page to protect garden beds through the region's freeze thaw cycles.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack so air can move underneath, since Georgetown's humid summers and wet winters can wick moisture back into logs sitting directly on soil. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top of the stack, keeping the sides open so any residual moisture can keep escaping rather than getting trapped under a full tarp.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Hickory and oak burn hot and slow, making them ideal for overnight coals during Georgetown's long cold stretches, while ash lights easier and works well for building a quick fire. Try mixing species, starting with ash to get flames going, then adding oak or hickory once you have a solid coal bed for sustained heat through the night.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your seasoned firewood in late summer or early fall, well before Georgetown's first frost around October 28, since supply gets tighter once temperatures drop and everyone is scrambling at once. Buying early also gives any slightly less dry splits extra weeks to finish seasoning in your own storage rack before you need to burn them.

Wood Heat in Georgetown

Georgetown sits in Zone 6b with a heating season that typically runs from late October through mid April, which means many households are feeding a stove or fireplace for nearly six months straight. Central Kentucky's humidity makes green wood a poor choice because unseasoned logs trapped in a woodpile here can stay damp and sooty for months longer than in drier climates. Our seasoned oak, hickory, and ash are dried down to a proper burn moisture before they ever reach your driveway, so you get more heat and less creosote buildup in the chimney. With Georgetown's first frost landing around October 28 and last frost near April 15, a well seasoned supply on hand before the cold snaps arrive keeps a household from scrambling mid winter. Local hardwoods also tend to burn longer and hotter than softer woods, which matters when overnight lows settle in for weeks at a time.

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 Georgetown winter actually require?

Most Georgetown households burning a couple nights a week as supplemental heat go through about a half cord to a full cord across the season, while homes heating primarily with a wood stove often use one and a half to two full cords given our roughly six month heating window from late October to mid April.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been split and dried until its internal moisture drops to a proper burn range, which matters in our humid Kentucky climate because green wood left outdoors here can take over a year to dry on its own and will smoke heavily and burn cold in the meantime.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I actually get?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to the Georgetown area such as oak, hickory, and ash, all known for dense, long burning coals that hold heat well through cold overnight stretches.

Answer

Is this firewood sourced locally, and does that matter?

Yes, all of our firewood is sourced near Georgetown, which matters because hauling firewood long distances is how pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so buying and burning local helps protect the trees still standing in our region.

Answer

How does delivery to my house work?

You choose a cord size and delivery date, and the wood is dropped loose in your driveway rather than stacked, so it helps to have a tarp or storage rack ready if you cannot move it right away.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a half cord, and a 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, third, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so a half cord is about 64 cubic feet and a quarter cord is about 32 cubic feet.

Answer

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

Georgetown does not currently have a formal wood burning ban, but on days with poor regional air quality it is good practice to hold off on outdoor burning and rely on seasoned wood indoors, since dry hardwood produces far less smoke than green or wet logs.
