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 Knoxville winter of occasional fires, a half cord is a safe starting point, while households burning most nights from late October to early April should order a full cord.

Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!
Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!
If you are prepping your property for the cold months, pair your firewood order with a load of mulch or soil from our Knoxville regional page to protect beds before the first frost hits in late October.

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or a rack, since Knoxville's humid summers and wet winter stretches will wick moisture straight up into a pile sitting on bare clay loam soil. Leave the top loosely covered but the sides open so air keeps moving through the stack. A stack that cannot breathe holds onto dampness and can undo months of proper seasoning before you ever burn it.
Oak and hickory both take a little longer to catch than softer woods, so start your fire with smaller locust splits or kindling before adding your bigger oak rounds. Once locust catches, it burns hot and steady, which helps get denser hickory going. A moisture meter is a worthwhile cheap tool if you want to confirm your wood is truly under 20 percent before loading up the stove.
Order before the first frost hits around October 25 if you want first pick of well seasoned wood, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and supply gets tighter through December. Ordering early also gives your stack extra weeks to adjust to your yard's specific airflow and shade before the coldest part of the season arrives in January.
Knoxville sits in a valley between the Cumberland Plateau and the Smokies, which means winters bring damp, chilly stretches from late October through early April, a heating season that runs longer than most people expect at our elevation. That kind of extended cold snap punishes anyone burning green or half seasoned wood, since unseasoned logs hiss, smoke, and throw off far less heat when the humidity in East Tennessee air is already working against a good burn. Our wood is seasoned down to a proper moisture level before it ever reaches your driveway, so it lights faster and burns hotter through those long January nights. Local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and locust are the backbone of a good Knoxville woodpile because they hold heat well and stand up to our clay loam soil growing conditions. Seasoning wood properly in this climate takes real time and airflow, which is exactly why we source and dry it here instead of rushing it to your house.
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.
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.
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.
