Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!

For a typical New Haven heating season running late October through mid April, plan on one to two cords for occasional use and two to three cords if wood is your primary heat 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.

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!

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on a pallet or rack, since New Haven's damp falls and melting spring snow can wick moisture up into a bottom row sitting on soil or concrete. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover just the top with a tarp, keeping the sides open so humidity does not get trapped and slow your seasoning process even further.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and ash both take a slower, patient hand to get going since they are dense, so start your fire with faster catching maple or a handful of kindling, then add the denser splits once you have a solid coal bed. This gives you the longer, steadier heat New Haven's cold nights call for without the frustration of a fire that stalls out.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall before New Haven's demand spikes closer to the October frost. Wood ordered early also has more time sitting in dry conditions before the humid season fully breaks, and you avoid the scramble that hits every supplier once the first genuinely cold week rolls through.

Wood Heat in New Haven

New Haven winters run long, with a first frost around October 25 and cold weather often lingering into mid April, so a lot of households are feeding a stove or fireplace for five months or more. Wood cut and split around here needs a full season, sometimes two, to drop its moisture low enough to burn clean, because Connecticut's humid summers slow down drying compared to drier inland climates. Locally sourced oak, ash, and sugar maple are the backbone of most seasoned loads in this area, prized for long, steady coals through cold nights. Green or under seasoned wood in this climate throws more smoke, coats chimneys with creosote faster, and simply will not keep a New Haven home warm through a January cold snap. Buying wood that has actually been seasoned for our conditions, not just labeled seasoned, makes a real difference once the temperature drops and stays down.

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 New Haven winter?

Most New Haven households burning a few nights a week from late October through mid April go through one to two full cords, while daily wood burners heating a main living space often need two to three cords across the season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried long enough, usually six months to a year, for moisture content to drop well below fresh cut levels, which matters in our humid Connecticut summers because wood dries slower here than in arid climates, so unseasoned wood burns cooler, smokier, and leaves more creosote in your flue.

Answer

What kind of wood will I actually get delivered?

Expect a mix of hardwoods common to this part of Connecticut, mainly oak, ash, and sugar maple, all known for dense, long burning coals that hold heat well on cold New Haven nights.

Answer

Is this wood really local, and does that matter?

Yes, our firewood is sourced near New Haven rather than trucked in from out of state, which matters because moving firewood long distances is how pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so buying local helps protect the trees still standing in this region.

Answer

How does delivery actually work, do you stack it for me?

We deliver your order loose to the edge of your driveway, and stacking is not included, so you will want a plan and maybe a helper for moving it to its final storage spot.

Answer

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

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, roughly 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and the smaller sizes are simple fractions of that, so a half cord is about 64 cubic feet, useful if you have limited stacking space or just want to test your burn rate before committing to more.

Answer

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

Connecticut occasionally issues air quality advisories during winter inversions, so it is worth checking local notices on high pollution days and avoiding smoky, poorly seasoned wood, which is another reason properly dried firewood matters in the New Haven area.
