How Much Firewood Do I Need?
For a typical Jeffersonville winter with occasional to regular fires, a half cord to full cord usually covers the season, while full time wood heat households should plan on two to three cords.
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.

One of the easiest customer service experiences I've had in a long time! Mulch Mound made it so simple. After putting it off for a while, I looked at the weather and knew I needed to get to mulching ASAP before the rain came if I didn't want to wait another week. I put my order in for the next day online and they came right at 9 AM. The employee who dropped off the mulch did a great job, putting it right on the tarp I laid out, she even made sure none of it got on the yard and double checked the truck bed to make sure it all came out. The mulch was exactly what I needed and arrived right on time.

We have always spread our own mulch for the past 24 years. This was our first time with the Mulch Mound - things I liked: they have online ordering and provide a digital receipt which means you can remember how much you ordered (I always forget for the next year!), they were on time, they were able to deliver in 48 hours, they were generous with the portion (we got 9 yards and it felt like a FULL nine yards!), the driver was polite! We have ordered from reputable places, and there is always a little trash in the mulch. The mulch we recv'd from Mulch Mound had barely any... we were pleasant surprised!!! Color was great! Not to mention - the price was competitive and LOWER than other mulch places around. We will use again !! Highly recommend! Thanks Mulch Mound!
If you are refreshing garden beds or driveway edges before winter sets in, check out our mulch and stone options sourced for Jeffersonville's silt clay soils to finish the yard alongside your firewood order.
Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or a rack, since Jeffersonville's silt clay soil holds moisture at the surface longer than sandier ground would. Keep the top covered but the sides open to airflow, this keeps rain and snow off without trapping humidity against the wood. A stack against a fence or shed wall, angled to catch afternoon sun, seasons and stays dry better through our wetter winter stretches.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Local ash lights fast and is great kindling wood, but pair it with oak or hickory for overnight burns since those species hold coals much longer. A quick moisture check is to knock two pieces together, seasoned wood gives a sharp crack while green wood sounds dull and heavy. If you see steam or hissing at the cut ends when burning, that log needs more drying time before it goes back in the stack.
Mulch Mound Pro Tip
Order your firewood in late summer if you can, well before the first frost typically hits Jeffersonville around October 12. This gives freshly split wood extra weeks to finish seasoning in your own stack, and it beats the rush that hits every supplier once the first cold snap actually arrives and everyone remembers they need wood at once.
Wood Heat in Jeffersonville
Jeffersonville sits in growing zone 6b, which means a heating season that stretches from that first frost around October 12 through the last frost near April 20, well over five months of cold nights along the Ohio River. That kind of stretch burns through wood fast, especially with the humid summers we get here that make green wood slow to dry if it is not seasoned ahead of time. Locally sourced oak, hickory, and ash are common in our area and each behaves differently in a firebox, so seasoning time and species matter more than people expect. Wood cut and split in spring or early summer has months to lose moisture before the first cold snap hits, which is exactly the window our seasoned hardwood goes through. Silt clay soils around Jeffersonville hold moisture near the ground, so keeping split wood off the dirt and under cover really does make a difference here. Buying seasoned and local means less smoke, better heat, and no surprises when the temperature drops fast in October.
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 Jeffersonville winter actually take?
With our heating season running roughly from mid October to late April, a household burning a few nights a week as supplemental heat usually goes through a half cord to a full cord. If firewood is your primary heat source through the coldest stretch, plan for two to three full cords to get comfortably through to the last frost in April.
Answer
What does seasoned firewood actually mean, and does it matter here?
Seasoned means the wood has dried for six months to a year after splitting, dropping moisture content low enough to burn hot and clean. In our humid Ohio Valley summers, green wood dries slower than in drier climates, so buying wood that is already seasoned saves you a season of waiting and smoky, low heat fires.
Answer
What kinds of wood will I get delivered?
Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to the Jeffersonville area, mainly oak, hickory, and ash, all sourced from nearby land. Oak and hickory burn long and hot for overnight fires, while ash lights easily and is great for getting a fire going quickly.
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, which has already hit ash trees hard across southern Indiana. Our wood is sourced near Jeffersonville, which keeps that risk out of your yard and supports the local timber economy at the same time.
Answer
How does delivery actually work?
We schedule a delivery window, bring the load out on a truck, and dump it loose in your driveway rather than stacking it for you. Plan on having space cleared ahead of time since a full cord takes up more room than most people expect.
Answer
How do I know which cord size to order?
A full cord is 128 cubic feet, stacked 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and that is the baseline we measure every size against. Our quarter cord, third cord, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so a half cord is roughly 64 cubic feet, useful if you only burn occasionally or have limited storage space.
Answer
Are there any local rules about burning wood I should know about?
Clark County does not typically issue air quality burn bans the way larger metro areas do, but on especially still, cold winter nights it is good practice to keep fires smaller and make sure your wood is fully seasoned to cut down on smoke for your neighbors. Well seasoned hardwood burns cleaner and is simply the more considerate choice regardless of local rules.
