Ordered Dirt. Received Dirt. Would Buy Again.

For a typical Waukesha heating season, plan on a half cord to a full cord for supplemental fire pit or occasional stove use, and two to four cords if firewood 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.

Placing an order online was so easy. Delivery was on time. When the driver realized we had a newly poured driveway they erred on the side of caution and opted not ti drive in it. The company even sent me a message explaining that call. Would recommend!

Once your firewood is stacked, consider pairing it with a load of mulch or soil from our Waukesha regional page to protect garden beds before the ground freezes solid this fall.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack firewood off bare ground on pallets or rails so Waukesha's clay loam soil does not wick moisture back into the bottom rows. Leave the top loosely covered but the sides open to wind, since trapped humidity from our summer weather can undo months of seasoning fast. A single row two logs deep dries far better than a wide pile where inner logs stay damp all winter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Before burning, check moisture with a simple split test. Freshly split seasoned oak or hickory should sound sharp and hollow when two pieces are knocked together, not dull and thudding. If you see sizzling or hear hissing at the ends in the firebox, the wood needs more time, a common issue with wood cut too close to our short spring window.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your season's wood in late summer, well ahead of the September 30 first frost, since hardwood cut and split earlier in the year has had a full humid Wisconsin summer to dry properly. Waiting until October often means burning wood that has not had enough time to season, leading to smokier fires and more creosote buildup through the long winter ahead.

Wood Heat in Waukesha

Waukesha winters stretch from the first frost around September 30 through the last frost near May 15, which means a long heating season for wood stoves and outdoor fire pits alike. Properly seasoned hardwood matters here because green or wet wood burns cold and smoky, coating chimneys with creosote right when southeastern Wisconsin's humid summers give way to damp autumns. Our supply leans on oak, hickory, and hard maple pulled from woodlots close to the Fox River valley, species long trusted by local burners for steady heat output and long coal beds. Because wood is split and air dried through Wisconsin's warm, humid summer months before delivery, moisture content drops to levels that light easily and burn clean even on the coldest January nights. Sourcing locally near Waukesha also keeps seasoning consistent with our clay loam soil and elevation, so the wood you burn matches the climate it grew in.

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 Waukesha winter?

Most households burning a wood stove several nights a week from the September 30 frost through mid May go through two to four full cords, while occasional fire pit users often get by on a half cord or quarter cord for the season.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has dried for months after splitting until moisture content drops well below fresh cut green wood, which matters in our silty clay loam region because damp ground and humid summers can slow drying if wood is not stacked and exposed to airflow properly.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get in my delivery?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods like oak, hickory, and hard maple, all common species in the woodlots around Waukesha and known for dense, long burning coal beds that hold heat overnight.

Answer

Why do you only source wood locally instead of shipping it in from farther away?

Moving firewood long distances is one of the main ways pests like the emerald ash borer spread between counties, so we keep our supply sourced near Waukesha to protect the same trees your wood came from.

Answer

How does delivery actually work once I place an order?

We deliver your chosen quantity loose to your driveway on the scheduled date, and stacking is not included, so plan on an afternoon to move it into your woodshed or stack before the next rain.

Answer

What exactly is a cord, and how do the smaller sizes compare?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long, and our quarter cord, third cord, and half cord options are simply fractions of that same stacked volume for smaller storage spaces or shorter burning seasons.

Answer

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

Waukesha County periodically issues air quality advisories during winter inversions, so it is worth checking local notices before extended outdoor burning on days when smoke tends to settle low over the neighborhood.
