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.

Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

For most Tupelo homes, a half cord covers a moderate wood burning winter, while full time wood heat users should plan on ordering a full cord before the first frost hits in November.

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 getting ready for wood burning season, take a look at our mulch and soil options sourced for Tupelo's clay loam yards to keep garden beds protected through the same cold months.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on pallets or rails so air can move underneath, and keep the top covered but the sides open to airflow. Tupelo's humidity means fully enclosed covers can trap moisture and slow seasoning or even encourage mold. A simple lean to roof or tarp angled to shed rain works better here than a sealed tarp wrapped tight around the whole pile.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Oak and hickory both benefit from a hot kindling base since they are dense and slower to catch than softer woods. Start with smaller dry splits or kindling, build heat quickly, then add your seasoned oak or hickory splits once you have a solid bed of coals. This gets you a longer, steadier burn through cold Tupelo nights without babysitting the fire constantly.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost typically arrives around November 3, since seasoned wood supply tends to tighten up once temperatures drop and everyone remembers they need it at once. Buying early also gives any slightly less dry splits extra weeks to finish drying out in your stack before you actually need to burn them.

Wood Heat in Tupelo

Tupelo sits in zone 8a, but the frost window still runs from early November to late March, which adds up to several months of real heating season for wood stoves and fireplaces around town. Northeast Mississippi humidity is high most of the year, so wood that has not been properly seasoned can sit in a stack and still hold moisture deep inside the splits. That extra water means more smoke, less heat, and faster creosote buildup in chimneys during our damp winters. Our firewood is seasoned local hardwood, mostly oak and hickory with some ash mixed in, cut and split well ahead of delivery so it has time to dry out in Mississippi air before it reaches your driveway. Burning wood that has actually had time to season is the difference between a fire that struggles and one that throws real heat on a cold Tupelo night. Since our clay loam soil supports dense hardwood growth locally, we do not have to bring in wood from far away to get quality logs.

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 Tupelo winter actually use?

With our frost season running roughly from November 3 to March 26, most Tupelo households burning a few nights a week go through a half cord to a full cord over the winter. Homeowners who rely on a wood stove as a primary heat source often go through a full cord or more, while occasional fireplace users can get by on a quarter or third cord.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried down to a low moisture content after being cut and split, usually six months to a year depending on species. In a humid place like Tupelo, unseasoned or green wood holds onto moisture longer than in drier climates, so buying wood that is already seasoned saves you from smoky, low heat fires and creosote buildup in your flue.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I actually get delivered?

Expect mostly oak and hickory, both dense hardwoods common to our part of Mississippi that burn hot and long, with some ash mixed in depending on availability. These species are well suited to Tupelo winters because they hold a steady coal bed overnight.

Answer

Is this wood really sourced near Tupelo, and does that matter?

Yes, our firewood comes from local sources near Tupelo rather than being trucked in from other regions. Buying local matters because moving firewood long distances is a known way invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread into new areas, so keeping wood local protects the hardwood trees already growing in your neighborhood.

Answer

How does delivery to my house actually work?

You choose your cord size, we schedule a delivery date, and our truck drops the wood loose in your driveway at the spot you point out. Stacking is not included, so plan on moving it to your storage area yourself or with help.

Answer

What is a cord, and how do the quarter, third, and half sizes compare?

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 is about a fourth of that stack, the third cord about a third, and the half cord fills half the stack, so you can match the size to how much wood storage space and burning you actually plan for this winter.

Answer

Do I need to worry about local burn rules before I start a fire?

Tupelo does not typically issue the kind of air quality burn bans seen in larger metro areas, but it is still smart to check for any local outdoor burning notices during unusually dry or smoky stretches. For indoor wood stove and fireplace use, seasoned wood itself is your best tool for keeping smoke output low and neighbors happy.
