How Much Firewood Do I Need?
For most Jackson homes, a half cord covers casual fireplace use through the season, while full time wood stove heat usually calls for a full cord or more given our November through April cold stretch.
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.

First time going with this company for mulch and it was an efficient process from start to finish.

Best deal around when I compared it to competitors and I will definitely be becoming back.

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!
While you are prepping for winter, check out our mulch and soil options for Jackson's clay heavy yards, ideal for insulating garden beds before the first frost hits.
Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack to keep it away from Jackson's damp clay soil, which holds moisture long after rain. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover only the top with a tarp so the sides can breathe. Full coverage traps humidity underneath and slows seasoning, undoing the work we already put into drying your wood before delivery.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Hickory and oak, common in our local mix, burn longer and hotter than softer woods, making them ideal for overnight burns during Jackson's coldest stretches in January and February. If you want a quick check on dryness, split a piece and press it against your cheek. Seasoned wood feels cool and dry, while green wood feels noticeably damp.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before Jackson's first frost around November 7. Demand climbs fast once temperatures drop, and wood ordered early has more time to finish seasoning in your storage space before you need it for the first cold nights of the season.
Wood Heat in Jackson
Jackson winters run from that first frost around November 7 through mid April, giving West Tennessee homeowners a long stretch of chilly, humid nights that call for a steady woodpile. Our zone 7b climate means damp air lingers, so wood that has not been properly seasoned struggles to burn clean and hot. We season our oak, hickory, and ash locally so moisture content drops before it ever reaches your driveway. That matters here because Jackson's clay soil and humid air keep freshly split wood wet for months longer than drier climates. Burning seasoned hardwood means less smoke, more heat, and fewer creosote problems in your chimney all winter long. With a heating season that can stretch five months, starting with dry wood makes a real difference.
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 Jackson winter?
Most Jackson households burning a few nights a week from November through mid April go through a half cord to a full cord. If you rely on a wood stove as a primary heat source, plan closer to a full cord or more given our five month heating window.
Answer
What does seasoned firewood mean and why does it matter here?
Seasoned means the wood has dried enough to burn efficiently, usually six months to a year after splitting. In Jackson's humid climate, green wood holds onto moisture much longer, so buying seasoned wood saves you from smoky, low heat fires during our cold months.
Answer
What kinds of wood will I get with a Jackson delivery?
Expect a mix of local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and ash, all common species in the woodlots around Jackson. These burn hot and long, which suits our stretch of cold nights between November and April.
Answer
Is your firewood really local, and does that matter?
Yes, we source all our firewood near Jackson rather than trucking it in from other regions. Keeping firewood local helps stop the spread of pests like the emerald ash borer, which can hitch a ride in firewood moved long distances.
Answer
How does delivery work once I place an order?
After you choose a cord size, we schedule a delivery date and drop the wood loose in your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan to move it to your storage spot soon after it arrives, especially with our humid air.
Answer
What is a rick, and how does it compare to your cord sizes?
Around Jackson and the rest of West Tennessee, folks often say rick to mean a partial cord, usually about a third of a full cord. Our quarter, third, and half cord options line up closely with what most people mean by a rick, so just ask and we will match you to the right size.
Answer
How is a full cord actually measured?
A full cord is 128 cubic feet, stacked 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter, third, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked measurement, so you can scale your order to match how much wood your Jackson home actually burns.
