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.

I needed 3 yards of top soil and that's what I got! Right on time and right where I asked it to be placed (Order# 2041).

For a typical Kokomo heating season, plan on a half cord for occasional use or a full cord if firewood is your primary heat source from October through 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.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

While you are prepping for winter, check out our mulch and stone options sourced for the same Kokomo area soil and climate to finish off garden beds before the ground freezes.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so Kokomo's damp clay loam soil does not wick moisture back into the wood over winter. Leave a few inches between rows for airflow, and cover just the top of the stack with a tarp rather than wrapping the whole pile, since trapped humidity under a fully covered stack can undo the seasoning you paid for.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory burn slower and hotter, making them ideal for overnight loads on the coldest Kokomo nights, while ash lights faster and works well for getting a fire going quickly. Mixing species in your firebox lets you get a quick catch from ash kindling wood before settling into a long, steady burn from denser oak or hickory splits.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your seasonal supply before the first frost hits around October 18, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and delivery windows fill up during the first real cold snap. Buying early also gives any borderline splits a few extra weeks of airflow in your stack before you need them for a hard freeze in January.

Wood Heat in Kokomo

Kokomo winters stretch from a first frost around October 18 to a last frost near April 15, which means woodstoves and fireplaces in Howard County can see six months of real work. That kind of heating season punishes green or half seasoned wood, since unseasoned logs hiss, smoke, and throw far less heat when temperatures drop into the teens. Our wood is seasoned down to a low moisture content before it ever reaches your driveway, so it lights faster and burns hotter through central Indiana's damp, silty clay loam climate. Local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and ash hold their heat output well through long cold snaps once properly dried. Central Indiana's humid summers mean wood needs a full season under cover to season correctly, and we handle that step so you do not have to.

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 Kokomo winter?

Most Kokomo households burning a stove or fireplace several nights a week through the October to April heating season use somewhere between one half cord and a full cord. If you burn nightly as a primary heat source, plan closer to a full cord or more depending on your stove's efficiency and how cold the season runs.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried enough that its moisture content has dropped to a range that burns clean and hot, typically under 20 percent. In our humid central Indiana climate, freshly cut wood can take six months to a year to reach that point, so buying wood that is already seasoned saves you a smoky, low heat fire when you need warmth most.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get delivered?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to the Kokomo area, mainly oak, hickory, and ash, all split and seasoned so they are ready to burn on arrival.

Answer

Why does it matter that the wood is sourced locally near Kokomo?

Firewood should always be bought and burned close to where it was cut because hauling it long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas. Our wood is sourced locally near Kokomo, which keeps that risk contained to where the pest pressure already exists.

Answer

How does delivery actually work once I place an order?

You choose your cord size and a delivery window, and we bring the seasoned hardwood straight to your driveway in a loose dumped pile. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your storage spot yourself within a few days of delivery.

Answer

How do the different cord sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet, the equivalent of a stack 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is about a fourth of that volume for occasional fires, the third cord splits the difference for regular weekend use, and the half cord covers roughly half a season of steady burning before you need a full cord for the whole winter.

Answer

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

Kokomo households generally rely on wood burning appliances for supplemental heat without special permitting, but it is worth checking with the City of Kokomo or Howard County for any open burning or air quality guidance, especially during winter inversion days when smoke can linger closer to the ground.
