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.

Most Roanoke homes burning regularly through the winter season order between a half cord and a full cord, while occasional fireplace use is often well covered by a quarter or third cord.

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. Website was easy—I told them exactly where I wanted the mulch put on my driveway, and it was delivered perfectly when I got home from work the next day. Best deal around when I compared it to competitors and I will definitely be becoming back.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or a rack, and keep the top covered while leaving the sides open to airflow. Roanoke's humid summers and wet fall weather mean uncovered wood pulls moisture right back in, undoing months of seasoning. A simple lean to cover or tarp angled to shed rain works better than fully wrapping the pile, which traps damp air against the wood.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory from our loads both burn hot and long, but hickory catches a bit slower, so start your fire with smaller split pieces or kindling before adding larger hickory splits. A quick moisture check is to tap two pieces together, seasoned wood gives a sharper, hollow sound while green wood thuds dully and often hisses once it hits the flame.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your cord size before the first hard frost typically arrives in mid October, since demand across the Roanoke Valley climbs fast once temperatures drop. Buying early also gives freshly split wood extra weeks to finish seasoning in your own stack before you actually need it burning.

Wood Heat in Roanoke

Roanoke sits at about 940 feet in growing zone 7a, which means a heating season that often stretches from mid October frost through late April. That is a long stretch of cold nights in the Roanoke Valley, and green wood simply cannot keep up with the demand for steady heat. Our seasoned hardwood, mostly oak and hickory with some ash and locust mixed in, is dried down to a low moisture content before it ever reaches your driveway. Because the valley's clay loam soils and humid summers slow natural drying, wood that has not been properly seasoned stays wet inside even if the bark looks gray and cracked. Burning truly seasoned wood means less creosote buildup in your flue and more usable heat on the coldest Roanoke nights.

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 Roanoke winter?

For a home in the Roanoke Valley that burns a wood stove several nights a week from October frost through April, most households use somewhere between one half cord and a full cord per season. If your fireplace is more occasional or supplemental to another heat source, a quarter or a third of a cord often gets you through.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for months after splitting until its internal moisture drops well below what freshly cut, or green, wood holds. In Roanoke's humid summers, wood left in the round or stacked too tight can stay damp inside even after a season outdoors, so we split and stack our wood properly to get it truly ready to burn, not just weathered on the outside.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get delivered?

Our loads are sourced from hardwoods common to the Roanoke Valley and surrounding ridges, primarily oak and hickory with some locust and ash mixed in depending on availability. These species are dense, burn long, and are well suited to the area's clay loam forests.

Answer

Why does it matter that the firewood is sourced locally near Roanoke?

Moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, threatening the ash trees still standing in our region. By sourcing wood near Roanoke and delivering it near Roanoke, we keep that risk contained instead of hauling a problem in from somewhere else.

Answer

How does the delivery actually work once I place an order?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery window, and our truck drops the wood loose at your driveway. Stacking is not included, so plan on a bit of time to move it to your storage spot once it arrives.

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 of stacked wood, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord, third cord, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume, so you can match your order to how much storage space or burning you plan on for the season.

Answer

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

Roanoke's air quality can be affected during still, cold snaps in the winter, so it is worth checking local burn advisories on high pollution days, especially if you are burning frequently. Sticking with properly seasoned hardwood also cuts down on the smoke and creosote that can trigger neighbor complaints or chimney issues.
