Easy to order, great service, and great product. We enjoy the final look of a very neglected beds we inherited!

For a New Bedford winter running roughly six months, plan on 3 to 4 cords if firewood supplements your heat, or up to 6 cords if it is your primary source.

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.

I recently ordered from mulch mound and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The entire process, from placing the order to delivery was seamless and efficient. The mulch arrived exactly on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. The color was rich and consistent, and I received more than enough to complete my project with proper coverage and packing.

Customer service was equally outstanding. Communication was clear, and the team was responsive and professional throughout. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both a high-quality product and excellent service, but mulch mound did just that.

Highly recommended, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on pallets or a rack, since New Bedford's damp coastal air and sandy loam soil hold moisture close to the surface. Leave gaps between rows for airflow and cover only the top of the stack, keeping the sides open so trapped humidity does not re wet wood that was already seasoned before delivery.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak burns longer and hotter, making it ideal for overnight coals, while ash lights easier and works well for getting a fire going quickly on damp New Bedford evenings. Mixing species in the firebox gives you a quick starting fire from ash with the lasting heat of oak once the coals build.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order before late September if possible, since demand spikes once the October 15 frost hits and coastal storms start rolling in. Ordering early also gives freshly delivered wood extra weeks to finish drying in your own stack before the coldest part of the New Bedford winter arrives in January.

Wood Heat in New Bedford

New Bedford winters stretch from the mid October first frost well into late April, giving homeowners a long heating season that puts real demand on a wood pile. The coastal humidity around Buzzards Bay means unseasoned wood struggles to dry properly once stacked outside, which is why our oak, ash, and maple are seasoned well ahead of delivery. Burning green wood in this damp, salt air climate leads to smoky, low heat fires and creosote buildup in chimneys common to New Bedford's older triple decker and cape style homes. Properly seasoned hardwood burns hotter and cleaner, which matters when you are relying on a wood stove or fireplace insert through a long SouthCoast winter. Local sourcing also means the wood has already adjusted to our regional humidity levels instead of arriving from a drier inland climate.

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 does a typical New Bedford household burn in a winter?

Most SouthCoast homes using a wood stove for supplemental heat go through 3 to 4 full cords across the season, given our roughly six month stretch between the October 15 first frost and the April 25 last frost. If firewood is your only heat source, plan closer to 5 or 6 cords.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been cut, split, and dried for months so its internal moisture drops low enough to burn efficiently. In New Bedford's humid coastal air, green wood dries slower than it would inland, so buying already seasoned wood saves you from smoky fires and poor heat output during our coldest stretches.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I actually get?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods like oak, ash, and maple, all common species around the New Bedford area, chosen for their dense grain and long, steady burn compared to softer woods.

Answer

Is this firewood really local, and does that matter?

Yes, it is sourced near New Bedford rather than trucked in from far away. Keeping firewood local helps prevent the spread of invasive pests like the emerald ash borer, which can hitch a ride in wood moved long distances between regions.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway work?

We schedule a delivery window, then drop your order loose in your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to a dry storage spot yourself 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. Our quarter cord is one fourth of that volume, our third cord is one third, and our half cord is exactly half, so you can size your order to match your storage space and how much you burn each season.

Answer

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

New Bedford follows Massachusetts open burning restrictions, and wood stove use should always follow your appliance's manufacturer guidelines to keep smoke output low, especially on damp, still air days common along the coast when smoke tends to linger near the ground.
