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.

Occasional Henderson fireplace users typically do fine with a quarter to a third cord, while regular woodstove households heating through the full October to April season should plan on a half cord to a full 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.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

While you are prepping the yard for cold weather, pair your firewood order with a load of mulch or soil from our Henderson region page to protect garden beds and refresh landscaping before the ground goes dormant.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails so Piedmont humidity and rain do not wick moisture back into the bottom rows. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover only the top of the stack with a tarp, keeping the sides open. In Henderson's damp climate, a fully wrapped tarp traps moisture against the wood and can undo months of seasoning in just a few soggy weeks.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory from around Henderson are dense and slow burning, perfect for banking a fire overnight, but they take longer to catch. Start your fire with faster lighting maple splits or kindling, then add the denser oak and hickory once you have solid coals built up. This layered approach gets you heat quickly while still setting up long, steady overnight burns.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the October 18 average first frost, since Henderson's humid summers mean freshly cut wood needs months to season properly. Buying in late summer or early fall gives your stack time to finish drying and acclimate to outdoor conditions before you actually need it, rather than scrambling for wood once the first cold snap already has your house feeling drafty.

Wood Heat in Henderson

Henderson sits in growing zone 7b at about 502 feet elevation, which means a heating season that typically runs from late October through mid April, bracketed by our average first frost on October 18 and last frost around April 21. That is nearly six months where a woodstove or fireplace insert can be doing real work in a Henderson home. Piedmont red clay soils here support strong stands of oak, hickory, and red maple, and those dense hardwoods are exactly what burns long and hot once properly dried. North Carolina Piedmont humidity slows the seasoning process compared to drier climates, so wood cut too close to delivery time simply will not be ready to burn efficiently. We season our splits through a full cycle of Henderson weather so the moisture content drops before it ever reaches your driveway. That matters because green or under seasoned wood in a humid climate like ours smolders, smokes, and coats your chimney with creosote instead of throwing real heat.

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 Henderson winter?

For a home in Henderson that burns a woodstove several nights a week from late October through mid April, most households use somewhere between one half cord and a full cord across the season. If your fireplace is more occasional, supplementing a gas or electric furnace on cold snaps, a quarter or third cord often carries you through comfortably.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a moisture content low enough to burn cleanly, generally under 20 percent. In Henderson's humid Piedmont air that process takes longer than it would in a drier climate, so freshly split wood needs real time before it is ready. We season ours in advance so you are not stuck burning smoky, hissing splits that waste heat and gunk up your flue.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I actually be getting?

Our loads are sourced locally around Henderson and typically include a mix of oak, hickory, and red maple, the hardwoods that dominate this part of the Piedmont. Oak and hickory burn slow and hot, ideal for overnight coals, while maple lights easily and works well for getting a fire going fast.

Answer

Why does it matter that the wood is sourced locally?

Firewood should always be bought near where it is burned because hauling it long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas. We source our wood locally near Henderson specifically to keep that risk out of your yard and out of the surrounding forests.

Answer

How does delivery actually work, and will your truck stack it for me?

You choose a cord size and a delivery window, and our truck brings the load straight to your driveway. Wood is delivered loose, not stacked, so plan to have help or time set aside to move it into a stacked, covered pile within a day or so of drop off.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do the quarter, third, and half cord sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is roughly a quarter of that volume, the third cord about a third, and the half cord half the stack, so you can size your order to your woodpile space and how much of the Henderson heating season you plan to burn through.

Answer

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

Henderson and Vance County generally allow residential wood burning in stoves and fireplaces, but it is worth checking for any open burning restrictions during dry spells, since North Carolina forestry officials do periodically issue burn bans during drought conditions that can affect outdoor fires even when indoor woodstove use is unaffected.
