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.

Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!

For most Hopkinsville homes using wood as supplemental heat, a half cord to one full cord covers the season, while primary wood heat users should plan for two to three cords to get through late October to late April.

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.

Areas we deliver firewood in Hopkinsville, Kentucky

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or rails so Hopkinsville's humid air does not wick moisture up into the pile from below. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover just the top with a tarp, keeping the sides open. Fully covering a stack traps humidity underneath and can actually slow seasoning or invite mold during our wetter stretches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory both burn hot and long, making them ideal for overnight coals, while ash lights faster and works well for building a quick fire on a cold morning. Test moisture with a simple wood splitter to check for hissing or sizzling ends, both signs the wood has not fully seasoned and will smoke more than it should.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the October 30 first frost, so it has time to finish drying in dry conditions before the humid season fully sets in. Waiting until the first cold snap often means scrambling for delivery slots right when everyone else in Hopkinsville has the same idea.

Wood Heat in Hopkinsville

Hopkinsville winters typically run from late October through the end of April, giving local homeowners a heating season that stretches nearly six months once you count the first frost around October 30 and the last frost near April 30. That length of season means the difference between seasoned and green wood really shows up on your energy bills and in your chimney. Our region's humid summers slow down natural drying, so wood that has not been properly seasoned often still carries too much internal moisture when the cold snaps hit. Local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and ash are the backbone of a good Hopkinsville woodpile because they burn hot and steady through the long stretches of Kentucky cold. Buying seasoned wood that has already had a full season to dry in our silt loam region's air means less creosote buildup and more heat per load.

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 Hopkinsville home go through in a winter?

A household that burns a few nights a week for supplemental heat usually goes through a quarter to half cord over our roughly six month heating season, while a home relying on wood as a primary heat source through the full stretch from late October to late April often needs two to three full cords.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for at least six months to a year after splitting, dropping its moisture content low enough to burn cleanly. In Hopkinsville's humid summers, unseasoned wood dries slower than in drier climates, so wood that has not had proper time will smoke more, produce less heat, and build up creosote faster in your flue.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a Hopkinsville delivery?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods such as oak, hickory, and ash, all species that grow well in our silt loam soils and zone 7a climate and are known for dense, long burning coals.

Answer

Is this wood actually sourced near Hopkinsville, and does that matter?

Yes, we source locally near Hopkinsville rather than trucking wood in from far away. Keeping firewood local helps prevent the spread of invasive pests like the emerald ash borer, which can hitch a ride in transported logs and devastate ash trees in new areas.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway actually work?

We deliver your chosen cord size loose to your driveway, you do not need to be present for stacking since that part is on you, but we will place the load wherever is most convenient for your setup.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a third cord, 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. A half cord is roughly half that volume, a third cord is about one third, and a quarter cord is a quarter of that same 128 cubic foot measurement, so you can scale your order to match how much heating you actually need this season.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Hopkinsville?

Christian County does not currently enforce a formal wood burning ban, but it is always wise to check for any seasonal air quality advisories during unusually still or cold stretches, and to make sure your chimney is clean and your wood is properly seasoned to keep smoke output low for your neighbors.
