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.

Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

For McComb's typical mid November to mid March heating season, plan on a half cord for occasional use and a full cord if wood heat is your main source of warmth.

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 firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so air can move underneath, since McComb's humidity keeps ground moisture lingering longer than in drier climates. Cover only the top of the stack, leaving the sides open, so trapped moisture can escape instead of promoting mold or slow rot in wood that is meant to be ready to burn.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Local oak and hickory hold coals well, so build your fire with a base of oak for steady heat and add hickory splits once it is going for a hotter, longer burn. Test moisture by knocking two splits together, a sharp crack means well seasoned wood, while a dull thud suggests it still needs time before it burns cleanly.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in early fall, well before the November 12 average first frost, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and well seasoned wood can run low. Buying ahead also gives any extra moisture time to finish drying in your own stack before the coldest nights of the McComb winter arrive.

Wood Heat in McComb

McComb's mild but damp winters mean fireplaces and wood stoves run mostly from mid November through mid March, with cold snaps that can drop hard after the average November 12 frost date. Green or half seasoned wood struggles to catch and burns dirty in this humidity heavy climate, sending more creosote up the flue. Our seasoned oak and hickory has already lost its excess moisture, so it lights faster and burns hotter even on the muggy nights common to this part of Mississippi. Local hardwoods like red oak, water oak, and hickory are the backbone of our supply because they split well and hold coals overnight, which matters when Pike County temperatures swing between mild days and sharp cold fronts. Because our region's humidity slows down natural drying compared to drier climates, we season wood longer before it ever reaches 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 we typically need to get through a McComb winter?

Most McComb homes using a fireplace or stove as supplemental heat go through a half cord to a full cord between mid November and mid March. Homes relying on wood as a primary heat source, especially during longer cold snaps, often use a full cord to a cord and a half given our roughly four month burn season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a lower moisture content, typically under 20 percent, instead of being freshly cut. In McComb's humid climate, unseasoned wood holds onto moisture longer than it would in a drier region, so buying pre seasoned wood saves you the frustration of smoky, hard to light fires during a cold snap.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get with a McComb delivery?

Expect a mix of red oak, water oak, and hickory, all common hardwoods harvested from the Pike County area. These species are dense, split cleanly, and produce long lasting coal beds that are well suited to the region's swing between mild and cold nights.

Answer

Is the firewood actually local, and does that matter?

Yes, our wood is sourced near McComb rather than trucked in from other regions. Keeping firewood local matters because moving wood long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer, which can devastate local hardwood stands if introduced through outside firewood.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery date, and the wood arrives loose in your driveway rather than stacked. Stacking is not included, so plan for some time to move and stack it, ideally under cover, once it arrives.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a half cord, and a full cord?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. A half cord is half that volume, a third cord is roughly a third, and a quarter cord is a quarter of that stacked measurement, so you can size your order to match how much wood storage space and burning you actually plan for.

Answer

Are there any local burn rules or air quality advisories I should know about?

McComb does not have a formal wood burning ban like some larger metro areas, but on especially still, humid days it is worth checking regional air quality advisories before a long burn, since smoke can linger in our low elevation, high humidity air longer than it would in drier climates.
