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.

The website to order is super easy to use. Pick a mulch, date/time/driveway location of the delivery and that’s it. A few days later there was a nice mound of mulch in my driveway. Great service - just as promised.

For Orem's roughly six month heating window, occasional burners should plan on a half cord to a full cord, while daily wood heat users typically need two to three full cords to make it comfortably to spring.

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 the yard for winter, check out our mulch and stone options sourced for the same Wasatch Front conditions, ideal for insulating garden beds before Orem's first hard frost hits.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack with the bark side up to shed any moisture, and leave a few inches between rows for airflow. Orem's dry climate helps wood season fast, but a simple cover over just the top of the stack, not the sides, keeps snow off while still letting air move through and finish the drying job.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and locust from around the Wasatch Front burn longer and hotter than softer woods, making them great for overnight coals, while maple lights easier and works well for building your initial fire. A quick moisture meter reading below 20 percent tells you the wood is ready, if you don't have one, two split pieces that knock together with a sharp crack rather than a dull thud are usually good to burn.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the October 21 average first frost, since seasoned wood supply tightens once temperatures drop and everyone along the Wasatch Front starts calling at once. Ordering early also gives any slightly under seasoned splits extra weeks of Orem's dry air to finish curing before you need them.

Wood Heat in Orem

Orem sits at 4,767 feet with a heating season that runs from mid October frost through late April, meaning wood stoves and fireplaces often see five to six months of regular use. At this elevation the air is dry, which is actually good news for burning, but it means green or half seasoned wood will still hiss and smoke rather than throw real heat. Along the Wasatch Front the common firewood species are oak, maple, and locust, all of which need a full six to twelve months of seasoning to drop below 20 percent moisture. Because Utah Valley winters can bring long stretches of inversion and trapped valley air, burning dry seasoned wood instead of wet wood matters for both your chimney and the neighborhood air quality. Buying wood that has already been split and dried locally near Orem means you are not waiting out a wet cord in your own yard once the first cold snap hits.

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 an Orem winter?

For a home in Orem burning a stove or insert as a primary heat source through the roughly six month season from late October to late April, most households use two to three full cords. If firewood is more occasional, for ambiance or weekend fires, a half cord to a full cord usually covers the season comfortably.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for six months to a year after splitting, dropping its moisture content low enough to burn hot and clean instead of smoldering. In Orem's dry mountain air this drying happens faster than in humid climates, but green wood sold as ready to burn will still smoke heavily and coat your chimney with creosote, which is a real risk during our long burning season.

Answer

What kind of firewood will I get delivered in Orem?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to the Wasatch Front, primarily oak, maple, and locust, all split and dried before delivery. These species are known for solid heat output and a longer, steadier burn compared to softer woods like pine.

Answer

Why does it matter that the wood is sourced locally near Orem?

Firewood should always be burned close to where it grew because hauling it long distances can spread invasive pests like the emerald ash borer into new areas. Sourcing near Orem keeps our local trees safer and also means the wood has already acclimated to our elevation and dry conditions before it reaches your driveway.

Answer

How does delivery work, and will you stack it for me?

We deliver your chosen cord size loose to your driveway in Orem, and stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your storage spot yourself or with help. Most customers find a wheelbarrow and an afternoon get a full cord moved and stacked before the next batch of cold weather rolls in.

Answer

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

A full cord is a stack measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, or 128 cubic feet of stacked wood. A half cord is half that volume, a quarter cord is a quarter, and three quarter cord falls in between, so you can size your order to your woodpile space and how much you burn each winter.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning firewood in Orem?

Utah County is part of Utah's seasonal wood burning restriction program tied to winter inversion days along the Wasatch Front, so on mandatory action days solid fuel burning devices may be restricted unless they are your only heat source. It is worth checking the Utah Division of Air Quality's daily status before lighting up on a stagnant winter evening.
