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.

For typical Prescott winters, a half cord suits occasional use while full time wood heat users should budget one to two full cords to comfortably last from the October frost into April.

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 winter, consider pairing your firewood order with mulch or decorative stone from our Prescott area offerings to protect root zones and pathways through the freeze and thaw cycles our rocky loam soil sees each year.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on a pallet or rack, and keep it away from direct contact with soil since Prescott's rocky loam holds moisture unevenly after storms. Top the stack with a simple cover that shields it from rain and snow but leaves the sides open, since good airflow is what keeps wood dry in our climate, not a fully sealed tarp that traps dampness underneath.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Arizona oak burns slow and hot, making it ideal for overnight coals, while juniper lights fast and works well for kindling or quick warmth in the shoulder months. Test moisture by knocking two split pieces together, seasoned wood gives a sharp crack while green wood sounds dull and heavy.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood in late summer or early fall before Prescott's first frost hits, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and popular cord sizes can be delayed during the season's first cold snap. Ordering early also gives freshly delivered wood extra weeks to finish drying in our low humidity air before you need it most.

Wood Heat in Prescott

At 5,368 feet, Prescott sits high enough that heating season can stretch from late October frosts clear into April, which means a fireplace or wood stove gets real work here, not just weekend ambiance. Wood that is not fully seasoned struggles to burn hot in our dry mountain air, hissing and smoking instead of throwing real heat, and it leaves creosote behind in the chimney. Our local hardwood, mostly Arizona oak and juniper sourced near Prescott, dries well in this low humidity climate once split and stacked properly. Buying wood that has already been seasoned for our elevation and dryness saves you a full season of waiting and guessing. Because our winters are long and our nights get genuinely cold once the sun drops behind the Bradshaws, having a dependable seasoned supply on hand matters more here than in milder valley towns.

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 Prescott winter?

With our first frost usually landing around October 28 and the last frost not clearing until April 22, Prescott's burning season runs nearly six months. A household burning a few nights a week typically goes through a half cord to a full cord over that stretch, while daily wood stove users often need one and a half to two full cords.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been cut, split, and air dried long enough for the moisture content to drop, usually six months to a year. In Prescott's dry climate this happens efficiently, but green wood still burns cooler, smokes more, and builds up creosote faster, which is a real concern given how long our stoves run each winter.

Answer

What kind of wood will I get delivered?

Expect seasoned hardwood typical of the Prescott area, primarily Arizona oak with some juniper mixed in depending on availability. Both burn hot and steady, which suits the long, cold nights we get at this elevation.

Answer

Is this firewood actually local, and does that matter?

Yes, we source close to Prescott rather than trucking wood in from other regions. Keeping firewood local prevents the spread of invasive pests like the emerald ash borer, which travel in firewood and can devastate forests far from where they started, including the ponderosa stands around our town.

Answer

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

We deliver your chosen cord size loose to your driveway on the scheduled date. Stacking is not included, so plan on having space ready and a little time set aside to move it to your storage spot.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter cord, a third 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 roughly a quarter of that volume, the third cord about a third, and the half cord half, so you can scale your order to your stove usage and storage space without overbuying.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Prescott?

Yavapai County and the Prescott area can issue burn restrictions during dry, high wind periods or fire danger advisories, particularly in late spring before the monsoon. It is worth checking current fire restrictions before planning outdoor burning, though indoor wood stove and fireplace use is generally unaffected outside of extreme air quality events.
