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.

Wonderful experience! They put the mulch exactly where we wanted. This mulch spread very easily and didn’t have the usual “mulch smell.” We will definitely use again!

For a typical Port Huron heating season, plan on a half cord for occasional fires, one to two cords for regular weekend use, and two to three full 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.

Complete Your Outdoor Project

While you are prepping for the season, consider topping off garden beds or walkways with mulch or stone from our other Port Huron delivery options to help protect roots through our sandy loam soil's freeze thaw cycles.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or rails and keep it away from your home's siding to allow airflow underneath. Port Huron's lake effect humidity can wick moisture up from wet soil, so a raised, covered stack with the top shielded but the sides open to wind will keep your wood dry and ready to burn through the whole winter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and maple both burn long and hot once properly seasoned, but oak takes noticeably longer to catch, so start your fire with a few smaller ash splits before adding denser oak pieces. This layered approach gets your stove up to temperature faster on the coldest nights coming off Lake Huron.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall, well before the first frost typically hits around October 21. Ordering early guarantees you get properly seasoned wood rather than late season deliveries that had less time to dry, and it beats the rush that hits once temperatures start dropping.

Wood Heat in Port Huron

Port Huron sits at the tip of the thumb where lake effect humidity and a heating season that runs from late October frost through late April can leave green or poorly dried wood smoldering instead of burning clean. Our seasoned hardwood is dried down to a low moisture content before it ever reaches your driveway, so it lights faster and throws more heat per load even on the damp, raw nights that roll off Lake Huron. Local species like red oak, sugar maple, and ash make up most of our mix, all cut and split from timber sourced within the county. Because St. Clair County's soil and climate favor these dense hardwoods, you get longer burn times and a hotter coal bed than you would from softer, faster growing species. With roughly six months of heating season ahead of you, starting with properly seasoned wood is the difference between a warm living room and a chimney full of creosote.

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 will I need to get through a Port Huron winter?

If you are heating primarily with wood, plan on two to three full cords for the season given our roughly six month stretch of cold weather from late October to late April. Homeowners who only burn on weekends or for ambiance in a fireplace often get by on a half cord to a full cord.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been dried for months to reduce its internal moisture, which matters a lot in our humid lake effect climate because unseasoned wood struggles to burn hot and instead smokes and builds creosote in the flue. Our wood is split and dried before delivery so it is ready to burn the day it arrives.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get in my delivery?

Expect a mix dominated by red oak, sugar maple, and ash, all common hardwoods grown in the St. Clair County area. These species split well, season reliably, and produce a dense, long lasting coal bed that holds heat through overnight burns.

Answer

Is this firewood really sourced locally, and does that matter?

Yes, all of our wood is cut near Port Huron rather than trucked in from out of state. Keeping firewood local is important because moving wood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread from one region to another, and our local ash population has already been hit hard.

Answer

How does delivery actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery window, and the wood is dropped loose in your driveway rather than stacked, so you have full control over how and where you store it.

Answer

How do the quarter, third, half, and full cord sizes compare?

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, the third cord is roughly a third, and the half cord is exactly half, giving you flexible options depending on how much storage space and burning you plan to do this season.

Answer

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

Port Huron households should stick to seasoned hardwood rather than burning trash, treated lumber, or wet green wood, both for chimney safety and because the region occasionally issues air quality advisories during winter inversion events when smoke lingers close to the ground.
