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 Hicksville heating season, plan on a half cord for occasional use and a full cord 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, check out our mulch and stone options sized for Hicksville's sandy loam soil to protect beds and walkways through the same cold months.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails so Long Island's damp soil does not wick moisture back into the splits. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top with a tarp, keeping the sides open so humidity from the Sound does not get trapped against the wood and undo your seasoning.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and ash split from our deliveries burn slow and hot, perfect for overnight coals, while cherry lights faster and works well for kindling a fire before adding denser splits. Mixing species lets you control burn speed depending on whether you want a quick evening fire or a bed of coals to last until morning.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your cord before the first frost hits Hicksville around November 1, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and well seasoned wood becomes harder to source locally. Buying in early fall also gives any slightly less dry splits extra weeks to finish drying in your stack before you need them.

Wood Heat in Hicksville

Hicksville sits in zone 7b with a heating season that stretches from that first frost around November 1 to the last frost near April 15, which means Long Island homeowners are feeding wood stoves and fireplaces for a solid five months. Sandy loam soils and Long Island's humid air make it tempting to burn wood too soon after cutting, but green or under seasoned wood in this climate throws off less heat and builds up creosote fast. We season our oak, ash, and cherry, common hardwoods around Nassau County, for months so moisture content drops before it ever reaches your driveway. Properly seasoned wood burns hotter and cleaner through Hicksville's damp winters, which matters when humidity off the Long Island Sound keeps unseasoned splits from drying evenly. That combination of long cold stretches and coastal moisture is exactly why local sourcing and real seasoning time make a difference here.

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 Hicksville winter?

Most Hicksville households burning a few nights a week from November through April go through roughly one to one and a half full cords, while daily wood burners often need two or more. If you only burn for weekend ambiance, a quarter or half cord usually carries you through the season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content after months of exposure, unlike green wood cut and sold right away. In Hicksville's humid coastal air, unseasoned wood struggles to dry evenly and burns smoky and cool, so we season ours well before delivery so it lights easier and burns hotter in your stove or fireplace.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get delivered to my house?

Expect a mix of oak, ash, and cherry, the hardwoods most common around Nassau County, all split and seasoned. Oak and ash burn long and hot for overnight fires, while cherry adds a lighter, aromatic burn for shorter evening fires.

Answer

Why does it matter that the wood is sourced locally near Hicksville?

Firewood carries pests like the emerald ash borer, which has already damaged ash trees across Long Island, and moving wood long distances is how infestations spread to new areas. Sourcing locally near Hicksville keeps that risk contained and supports the same regional forests your wood came from.

Answer

How does delivery actually work, and will I need to stack it myself?

We deliver your chosen cord size loose to your driveway on the scheduled date. Stacking is not included, so plan to move and stack it yourself, ideally the same day, so it is not left exposed to Long Island's damp air.

Answer

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

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 a quarter of that volume, our third cord is a third, and our half cord is exactly half, so you can match the size to how much you actually burn each winter without overbuying.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Hicksville?

Nassau County occasionally issues air quality advisories during winter inversions, and outdoor burning of debris is restricted in most of Hicksville, but indoor wood stove and fireplace use is standard and unaffected as long as you burn well seasoned wood to keep smoke output low.
