For a typical Richmond heating season running late October through mid April, plan on a half cord for occasional use or a full cord if wood is a 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.

First time going with this company for mulch and it was an efficient process from start to finish.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on a pallet or rack with the bark side up to shed Richmond's frequent winter rain and snow. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, since our humid summers and damp winters mean poor air circulation can slow seasoning or even reverse it. A simple top cover, like a tarp or metal sheet, keeps rain off without trapping moisture underneath the stack.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak burns long and steady but takes longer to catch, so build your base fire with a faster igniting wood or kindling before adding oak splits. Hickory throws serious heat and works well once your stove is already hot. A quick moisture check with a simple meter, aiming for under 20 percent, tells you if a log is truly ready or still holding onto Kentucky humidity.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before that late October first frost hits Richmond, since demand spikes hard once temperatures drop and popular cord sizes can sell out during the coldest weeks. Buying in late summer or early fall also gives any slightly underseasoned wood extra weeks to dry out in your storage area before you actually need it burning hot.

Wood Heat in Richmond

Richmond winters run from that late October first frost around October 28 clear through mid April, which adds up to a long stretch of nights cold enough to justify a wood stove or fireplace running steady. Kentucky's humid summers and heavy silt clay soil mean freshly cut wood holds onto moisture much longer here than in drier climates, so a log that looks split and ready can still be green inside. Our seasoned hardwood is dried down properly before it reaches your driveway, which matters in this humidity because unseasoned wood smokes heavily, burns cold, and gums up a chimney fast. Local species like oak, hickory, and ash are common around Madison County and each burns differently, so knowing your wood matters as much as knowing your stove. Seasoning takes time in this climate, often six months to a year depending on species, which is why we handle that step before delivery instead of leaving it to chance in your backyard.

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 does a typical Richmond home need to get through winter?

Most Richmond households burning a few nights a week from November through March go through somewhere between half a cord and a full cord, while homes relying on wood as a primary heat source often use two to three full cords across the season given how long our cold stretch runs.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low enough moisture content to burn hot and clean, which is especially important in Richmond's humid climate where freshly split wood can stay damp for months if left untreated, leading to smoky, inefficient fires and creosote buildup.

Answer

What kind of firewood species should I expect in my delivery?

Our wood is sourced locally near Richmond and typically includes oak, hickory, and ash, all common hardwoods in this part of Kentucky that burn long and hot once properly seasoned.

Answer

Why does it matter that the firewood is sourced locally instead of shipped in?

Moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread from one region to another, so keeping our wood sourced near Richmond and burned close to home helps protect Madison County's trees.

Answer

How does delivery actually work once I place an order?

You choose your cord size, schedule a delivery date, and the wood is dropped loose at your driveway, unstacked, so you can move it to your storage spot or wood rack on your own schedule.

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, 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and our quarter, third, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so a half cord is about 64 cubic feet and a quarter cord is about 32 cubic feet.

Answer

Are there any local rules I should know about before burning firewood in Richmond?

Richmond does not currently have a formal wood burning air quality advisory program like some larger Kentucky cities, but burning only seasoned hardwood instead of green or treated wood is the best way to keep smoke output low and stay considerate of neighbors in closer in neighborhoods.
