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!

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so Minneapolis snowmelt and spring thaw do not soak the bottom rows. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover only the top with a tarp so sides stay ventilated. A north facing or wind exposed stack location actually helps seasoning continue even into the cold months, as long as snow load is kept off the pile.
Oak burns longest and hottest, making it ideal for overnight burns during deep Minneapolis cold snaps, while birch lights fast and works well for quick evening fires. Test moisture by knocking two split pieces together, seasoned wood produces a sharp, hollow crack rather than a dull thud. If you smell heavy sap or see dark wet rings on the cut ends, the wood likely needs more drying time before use.
Order your firewood in late summer or early September, well before Minneapolis's October 5 average first frost, so it has time to finish seasoning and so you avoid scrambling once the cold arrives and demand spikes. Early ordering also means better availability of full cords, since local seasoned hardwood supply tightens fast once the first hard freeze hits the metro area.
Wood Heat in Minneapolis
Minneapolis winters run long, with heating season stretching from the October frost around October 5 well into April, so a wood stove or fireplace here gets serious use across many cold months. Locally sourced oak, ash, birch and maple are the backbone of our supply, and each species seasons differently in our sandy loam region's dry cold air. Properly seasoned wood loses most of its internal moisture over six to twelve months, which matters because green wood burns cold and smoky in below zero temperatures instead of throwing real heat. Our zone 4b climate means firewood left unseasoned can freeze with moisture trapped inside, making it even harder to light and burn clean once the deep cold sets in. Buying seasoned hardwood cut and dried before winter gives Minneapolis households more consistent heat output and fewer chimney creosote problems all season long.
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.
