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.

For a typical Monroe heating season running mid November through mid March, most homes do well with a half to full cord depending on how often the fireplace or stove gets used.

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.

Areas we deliver firewood in Monroe, Louisiana

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack so Monroe's humid air can circulate underneath and prevent rot. Leave the top loosely covered but the sides open, since fully wrapping a woodpile traps moisture in our climate rather than keeping it out. A spot with morning sun and afternoon shade helps wood stay dry between our frequent rain showers.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Local hickory and oak both build a strong coal bed, which is ideal for overnight burns during Monroe's cold snaps. Split pecan makes a great quick, hot fire for evenings when you just need to take the chill off. Mixing species lets you control how long and how hot each fire burns depending on the night.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost typically hits Monroe around November 10, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop. Buying early also gives any slightly green splits extra weeks to finish drying out in our humid air before you actually need them for a fire.

Wood Heat in Monroe

Monroe winters run short but damp, with the real burn season stretching from the first frost around November 10 to the last frost near March 15. That humid Louisiana air means unseasoned wood can take far longer to dry out here than in drier climates, so starting with properly seasoned wood matters more in our silt loam river bottom region. Local oak, hickory, and pecan are common hardwoods around Monroe, and each burns long and hot once fully dried. Green or partially seasoned wood in our humidity tends to smoke, smolder, and leave heavy creosote in the chimney. Because our heating season is relatively mild but wet, having dry wood ready to go the moment temperatures drop makes a real difference in comfort and safety.

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 for a Monroe winter?

Most Monroe households burning a few nights a week for warmth or ambiance from November through mid March use somewhere between a third and a half cord. If wood heat is your main source through our cooler, damp stretches, plan closer to a full cord to be safe.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried enough to burn cleanly instead of smoking and popping. Because Monroe's humidity slows natural drying, we season our hardwood well before delivery so you are not stuck waiting out wet, heavy logs during a cold snap.

Answer

What kind of wood will I get with my delivery?

Expect local hardwoods common to the Monroe area, primarily oak, hickory, and pecan, all of which season well and burn hot with good coal beds for overnight heat retention.

Answer

Is this firewood sourced locally, and does that matter?

Yes, our firewood is sourced near Monroe rather than trucked in from far away. Moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so buying and burning local protects the trees around your own neighborhood.

Answer

How does firewood delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size, schedule a delivery date, and our truck drops the wood loose in your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your storage spot yourself or with help.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a third 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 a full cord, so you can scale your order to match your fireplace use without overbuying.

Answer

Are there any local burn rules I should know about in Monroe?

Ouachita Parish does not typically issue the kind of air quality burn bans seen in larger metro areas, but always check local advisories during unusually dry or smoky stretches before lighting an outdoor fire.
