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.

Easy to order, great service, and great product. We enjoy the final look of a very neglected beds we inherited!

Most High Point homes burning a few times a week get through winter on a half cord to a full cord, while daily wood heat users should plan for a full cord or more to cover the entire frost season.

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're prepping for winter, check out our mulch and soil options sourced for High Point's red clay conditions to protect garden beds before the ground freezes.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or a rack to keep it away from High Point's damp red clay soil, which holds moisture longer than sandier ground. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover just the top with a tarp rather than wrapping the whole pile, since trapped humidity under full coverage can slow seasoning and encourage mold during our wetter winter stretches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory both burn hot and long, making them ideal for overnight fires during cold snaps, but they take longer to catch. Start fires with poplar or smaller split kindling, then add oak or hickory once the fire is established. A simple moisture meter reading below 20 percent tells you the wood is properly seasoned and ready for efficient, low smoke burning.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost around November 3, since seasoned wood can sell out fast once temperatures drop across the Piedmont. Buying early also gives any slightly higher moisture splits extra weeks to dry out in your storage rack before you actually need them for a cold December night.

Wood Heat in High Point

High Point winters run from the first frost around November 3 through the last frost near April 19, which adds up to a long stretch of cold, damp evenings where a wood stove or fireplace gets real use. Piedmont humidity makes green wood slow to dry, so unseasoned splits can sit and mold instead of burning clean. We season our hardwood, mostly oak and hickory with some poplar mixed in, for months before delivery so the moisture content drops enough for hot, steady fires. That matters here because red clay soils hold groundwater near the surface, which keeps humidity elevated around wood piles longer than in sandier regions. Burning properly seasoned wood means less creosote buildup in chimneys during our long heating season, and less smoke drifting into High Point neighborhoods on still winter nights.

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 High Point home need to get through winter?

With our frost window running from November 3 to April 19, most homes burning a few nights a week go through about a half cord to a full cord across the season. Homeowners who rely on wood heat daily, especially during cold snaps that settle into the Piedmont in January, often use a full cord or more.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried enough that moisture content is low, usually after six months to a year of proper storage. In High Point's humid climate, seasoned wood is especially important because green wood dries slower here than in drier regions, and burning it produces more smoke, less heat, and more creosote in your chimney.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a High Point delivery?

Expect mostly oak and hickory, both dense hardwoods common to the Piedmont that burn hot and long, with some poplar mixed in for easier starting fires. These species are widely available locally and well suited to the cold, damp winter nights typical of our area.

Answer

Is your firewood really sourced locally, and does that matter?

Yes, our wood is sourced near High Point rather than trucked in from far away. Keeping firewood local matters because moving wood long distances spreads invasive pests like the emerald ash borer, which can devastate hardwood stands well beyond where they start.

Answer

How does firewood delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size online, schedule a delivery date, and our truck brings the wood loose to your driveway. Stacking isn't included, so we recommend having a tarp, rack, or cleared space ready before the truck arrives.

Answer

What's the difference between a quarter cord, a third 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. Our quarter cord is roughly a quarter of that volume, the third cord about a third, and the half cord half the stacked wood, giving High Point homeowners flexible options depending on how much they burn each season.

Answer

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

High Point generally allows residential wood burning in stoves and fireplaces, but it's worth checking local burn ban notices during dry spells or high pollution advisories from the Piedmont Triad air quality office before lighting outdoor fires. Indoor wood stove and fireplace use is typically unaffected by these advisories.
