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 most Muncie homes, a half cord covers light seasonal use, while full time wood heat through our long frost window usually calls for a full cord or more.

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're prepping for the Delaware County heating season, check out our mulch and stone options to insulate garden beds and firm up paths before the ground freezes.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack, since Muncie's silt loam soil holds moisture and can wick dampness straight into unprotected logs. Leave the top loosely covered but the sides open so air moves through the stack. A north or east facing spot away from your house's dryer vents or gutters helps prevent slow rot during our humid summer stretch before burning season starts.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory take longer to catch but throw steady heat for hours, making them ideal for overnight burns during Muncie's coldest stretches in January. Ash lights fast and burns hotter early, so use it to get coals going, then add oak or hickory once the fire is established. A simple moisture meter reading under 20 percent confirms your wood is truly ready to burn clean.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before Muncie's typical October 1 first frost, so it has time to settle and adjust to your storage spot before you need it. Waiting until the first cold snap often means scrambling for delivery slots right when everyone else in Delaware County has the same idea.

Wood Heat in Muncie

Muncie winters run long, with frost typically arriving by October 1 and lingering into late April, which means local wood stoves and fireplaces often see six months of steady use. Delaware County's humidity keeps green wood from drying reliably on its own, so firewood needs a full season or more under cover before it burns clean. We stock seasoned hardwoods like oak, hickory, and ash that are common to East Central Indiana woodlots, split and dried to burn hot with less smoke and creosote buildup. Because our supply is sourced near Muncie, it has already adjusted to the same silt loam soil and moisture conditions your fireplace will be fighting all winter. That local seasoning matters more here than in drier climates, where wood dries faster and matters less.

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 Muncie winter?

Most Muncie households burning a few nights a week from October through April go through a half cord to a full cord. If your fireplace is your main heat source rather than a supplement, plan closer to a full cord or more, since our frost window regularly stretches over six months.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for at least six months to a year until its internal moisture drops low enough to burn efficiently. In Muncie's humid summers and damp falls, green wood dries slower than in arid regions, so unseasoned wood here tends to smoke heavily, sputter, and build dangerous creosote in your chimney.

Answer

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

Expect a mix of oak, hickory, and ash, the hardwoods most common to woodlots and windbreaks around Delaware County. Oak and hickory burn long and hot for overnight fires, while ash lights easily and works well for getting a fire started quickly.

Answer

Is this firewood actually local, and does that matter?

Yes, we source all our firewood near Muncie rather than trucking it in from farther 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 locally helps protect the hardwood stands around East Central Indiana.

Answer

How does delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size and a delivery date, and our crew drops the wood loose at your driveway on the scheduled day. Stacking isn't included, so plan to have space cleared and ready before the load arrives.

Answer

What exactly is a cord, and how do the smaller 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, a third cord is roughly one third of the full amount, and a half cord is exactly half the wood and half the space of a full cord.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Muncie?

Muncie doesn't operate a routine burn ban program like some larger metro areas, but the Delaware County area can issue air quality advisories during stagnant winter weather, so it's worth checking local notices on high pollution days before running a fire all afternoon.
