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!

Most Las Cruces households burning several nights a week should plan on a half cord to a full cord to comfortably cover the frost season from November through late March.

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.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack so air can circulate underneath, since Las Cruces's sandy soil can wick moisture upward after rare rain events. Keep the stack covered on top but leave the sides open to airflow, and position it away from house walls to avoid trapping humidity against your siding during any wetter monsoon stretches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Mesquite burns hotter and longer than oak, making it a strong choice for overnight coals during the coldest stretches near our November frost date, while oak lights a bit easier for quick evening fires. Test a split log by knocking two pieces together, a sharp crack instead of a dull thud usually signals good seasoning and low moisture.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood before the first hard frost typically hits around November 7, since local supply tightens up once temperatures drop and everyone else remembers they need wood at the same time. Buying a few weeks ahead also gives you a chance to get your stack organized before the coldest nights actually arrive.

Wood Heat in Las Cruces

Las Cruces winters are short but sharp, with a frost window running from early November to late March and elevation near 3,900 feet that lets nighttime temperatures drop fast once the sun goes down. That means many households rely on woodstoves and outdoor fire pits for supplemental heat during those cold desert nights rather than for months on end. Our low humidity and sandy loam soil actually help firewood season faster here than in wetter climates, but only if the wood was properly split and dried before delivery. Green or under seasoned wood burns dirty, smokes heavily, and produces far less heat, which matters when you are trying to warm a room quickly on a 28 degree evening. We stock local mesquite and oak that are already seasoned and ready to burn, so you are not waiting out a drying process once it hits your driveway.

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 Las Cruces winter?

With our frost season typically running November 7 to March 28, most households that use a woodstove as their main supplemental heat burn through a half cord to a full cord over that stretch. If you only light occasional evening fires on the coldest nights, a quarter or third cord often gets you through comfortably.

Answer

What does seasoned firewood mean and does it matter here?

Seasoned means the wood has dried enough that its moisture content is low, usually under 20 percent, so it lights easily and burns hot instead of hissing and smoking. Our dry desert air actually speeds up seasoning compared to humid regions, but wood still needs time split and stacked before it burns clean, which is why we deliver only wood that has already gone through that process.

Answer

What kind of wood will I get delivered?

We source mesquite and oak from local suppliers near Las Cruces, both of which are dense hardwoods that burn long and hot, well suited to the quick temperature drops typical of our high desert nights.

Answer

Why does it matter that the wood is sourced locally?

Firewood moved long distances can carry invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas, so we keep our supply chain local to Las Cruces and the surrounding region. Buying local protects the mesquite and oak stands nearby and keeps your firewood free of hitchhiking insects.

Answer

How does delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery date, and our truck drops the wood loose onto your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan to move and stack it yourself once it arrives.

Answer

What is a cord and how do your sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is about a third of that stack, our third cord and half cord fall in between, and a full cord is the entire 128 cubic foot amount, giving you options depending on how much storage space and burning you plan for.

Answer

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

Dona Ana County occasionally issues air quality advisories during high pollution days, so it is worth checking local notices before lighting up on a still, cold evening when smoke can settle low over the neighborhood.
