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!
Great service. We ordered topsoil from Mulch Mound and the best experience. Thank you so much!
While you are prepping your property for winter, check out our mulch and soil options sourced for Wentzville's clay heavy ground, ideal for insulating garden beds before the first frost hits around October 22.
Service area
Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack, and keep the top covered while leaving the sides open to airflow. Wentzville's humid summers and wet spring stretches mean uncovered wood on bare soil can wick up moisture from the clay ground below, undoing months of seasoning. A simple tarp over the top row, secured but not wrapped tight to the sides, keeps rain and snow off while still letting air move through the stack.
Oak and hickory, our most common local species, benefit from a hot quick starting fire using smaller kindling before you add split logs. Because both woods are dense, they take longer to catch than softer woods, so give your fire a solid bed of coals before loading larger splits. A moisture meter reading under 20 percent on a freshly split face is a good sign the wood is ready to burn cleanly.
Order your firewood before the first hard frost typically hits Wentzville around October 22, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and supply of properly seasoned local wood tightens. Buying in late summer or early fall also gives you time to get everything stacked and settled before you actually need it for those first chilly nights.
Wentzville sits in zone 6b, which means a heating season that typically runs from late October through mid April, longer than most people expect when they are stacking their first load of the year. Our seasoned oak, hickory, and ash are dried down before delivery so they light easily and burn hot even during the humid stretches that St. Charles County sees in early fall and late spring. Green wood fights the local clay soil moisture that lingers in the air here, producing more smoke and creosote buildup in chimneys. With frost arriving around October 22 and lasting until mid April, Wentzville homeowners need wood that is ready to burn from day one, not wood still losing water weeks after delivery. Buying seasoned and local also protects the oak and ash trees that make up so much of our tree canopy along the Wentzville Parkway corridor and surrounding neighborhoods.
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.
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.
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.
