How Much Firewood Do I Need?
For most Harrison households, a half cord covers supplemental weekend and evening fires through the winter, while full time wood heat users should plan on a full cord to comfortably last the whole season.
What is a 1/4 Cord?
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.
What is a 1/3 Cord?
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.
What is a 1/2 Cord?
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.

While you are prepping your property for the Ozark winter, check out our mulch and stone options sourced for the same Cherty Silt Loam soil common around Harrison, ideal for insulating beds before the first frost hits.
Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or rails to keep it away from Harrison's damp, clay heavy soil, and leave gaps between rows so Ozark breezes can pass through and carry moisture out. Cover only the top of the stack with a tarp, leaving the sides open, since fully wrapping a pile traps humidity common to our region and slows seasoning or invites mold on wood you thought was ready to burn.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Oak and hickory, our area's signature hardwoods, both benefit from a hot kindling fire before you add larger splits, since dense Ozark hardwood needs strong initial heat to catch evenly. If you are unsure whether a piece is truly seasoned, knock two pieces together, a sharp crack means it is dry and ready, while a dull thud usually signals leftover moisture from our humid summers.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the October 25 average frost date, so it has time to finish drying in your storage area before cold nights arrive. Waiting until the first cold snap often means settling for wood that has not fully adjusted to your stacking spot, and popular cord sizes can run low right as Harrison's heating season kicks into gear.
Wood Heat in Harrison
Harrison sits in growing zone 7a at over 1200 feet elevation, and with a first frost around October 25 and a last frost near April 12, our heating season stretches close to six months. That is a lot of nights depending on wood that actually burns hot and clean instead of hissing and smoking in the firebox. Green or half seasoned wood struggles in the Ozarks humidity, holding moisture that turns into creosote buildup and weak heat output. Our seasoned hardwood, mostly oak and hickory sourced from the hills around Boone County, has had time to drop its internal moisture so it lights faster and throws real heat through the long Ozark winter nights. Local seasoning also matters because wood that has dried in our specific climate behaves differently than wood shipped in from elsewhere.
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

Answer
How much firewood will I actually need to get through a Harrison winter?
With frost typically arriving around October 25 and lingering until April 12, most Harrison households burning a wood stove several nights a week go through a half cord to a full cord over the season. Homes that rely on wood as a primary heat source, especially in older farmhouses around Boone County, often burn through a full cord or more.
Answer
What does seasoned firewood mean and does it really matter here?
Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a usable moisture level, typically under 20 percent, after being cut and split for several months to a year. In our humid Ozark summers, unseasoned wood holds onto moisture longer than in drier climates, so buying wood that is already properly seasoned saves you a smoky, low heat fire and a dirty chimney.
Answer
What kind of wood will I get with a Harrison delivery?
Expect a mix of oak and hickory, the dominant hardwoods across the Ozark hill country surrounding Harrison, with some ash and locust depending on the season. These species are known locally for dense, long burning coals that hold heat overnight.
Answer
Is this wood actually local, and why should I care?
Yes, our firewood is sourced from woodlots near Harrison rather than trucked in from out of state. Buying local matters because moving firewood long distances is how pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new forests, and keeping wood close to where it grew protects the timber all around Boone County.
Answer
How does delivery to my driveway actually work?
We schedule a delivery window, drive out to your address in Harrison, AR, and dump the wood loose in your driveway or another spot you designate. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your wood rack or storage area within a few days, especially before rain moves in.
Answer
What is a rick, and how does that compare to your cord sizes?
Around here, folks often ask for a rick, which usually refers to a stack that is a fraction of a full cord, similar to what we sell as a quarter, third, or half cord. To avoid confusion we sell in exact quarter cord, third cord, half cord, and full cord measurements so you know precisely how much wood is showing up.
Answer
How do you define a full cord versus the smaller sizes you sell?
A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our half cord is half that volume, our third cord is roughly a third, and our quarter cord is a quarter of that same 128 cubic foot benchmark, giving you flexible options based on how much wood your Harrison home actually burns.
