For a typical Newark heating season running mid October through late April, most regular wood burners should plan on 2 to 4 full cords, while occasional fireplace users often do fine with a half cord or quarter cord.

Highest compliments. Great driver.
Website is easy to navigate. Just a seamless process. 5 stars!!
While you are prepping for the cold, consider a load of mulch or bagged soil from our Newark area page to protect garden beds before that October 15 frost date arrives.
Service area
Newark's freeze thaw cycles and damp falls mean firewood stacked directly on soil will wick up moisture and rot faster than you would expect. Raise your stack off the ground with pallets or a rack, keep the top covered but the sides open for airflow, and position the pile where it gets afternoon sun to help fight the region's humidity swings between seasons.
Oak and hickory, common around Licking County, burn hot and long but take a bit more effort to get going. Start your fire with smaller maple or cherry pieces if you have them, then add the denser oak and hickory once you have a solid bed of coals, which will carry you through a cold Newark night without constant tending.
Because our heating season stretches from mid October into late April, ordering in late summer or early fall means better selection of cord sizes and delivery dates before the first frost rush hits. Waiting until the first cold snap often means longer lead times as everyone in Newark scrambles for wood at once.
Newark sits in growing zone 6a at nearly 869 feet elevation, which means a heating season that often runs from mid October through late April, well past the average October 15 first frost. That is six months of cold snaps where a wood stove or fireplace insert can take real pressure off a furnace. Our seasoned hardwood is dried down before delivery so it lights fast and burns hot instead of hissing and smoking like green wood cut this fall. Local species such as oak, hickory, and hard maple are common in the silt loam soils around Licking County, and they hold heat well through long winter nights. Because central Ohio humidity swings from muggy summers to dry cold snaps, wood that has not been properly seasoned tends to reabsorb moisture and burn poorly, so we season ours specifically for this climate.
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.
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.
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.
