Easy to order, great service, and great product. We enjoy the final look of a very neglected beds we inherited!

For most Wilmington homes, a half cord to a full cord comfortably covers a season of regular fires between mid November and late March.

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.

I recently ordered from mulch mound and was thoroughly impressed with every aspect of the experience. The entire process, from placing the order to delivery was seamless and efficient. The mulch arrived exactly on time, and the quality exceeded my expectations. The color was rich and consistent, and I received more than enough to complete my project with proper coverage and packing.

Customer service was equally outstanding. Communication was clear, and the team was responsive and professional throughout. It’s rare to find a company that delivers both a high-quality product and excellent service, but mulch mound did just that.

Highly recommended, and I wouldn’t hesitate to order from them again.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your wood off the ground on a pallet or rack with the bark side up to shed our frequent coastal rain. Leave gaps between rows for airflow since Wilmington's humidity can undo good seasoning if wood is packed too tightly. A simple cover over the top, left open on the sides, keeps rain off while still letting moisture escape.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Local oak burns long and steady, making it your best bet for overnight coals, while pine catches fast and works well for getting a fire going quickly on a damp evening. Mixing a few pine pieces in with your oak or hickory at the start of a fire makes lighting easier without sacrificing the longer burn time once the hardwood catches.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your wood well before the first frost in mid November, since seasoned hardwood supply tends to tighten up once temperatures start dropping and everyone in the Cape Fear area is calling at once. Ordering in early fall also gives any slightly less dry pieces extra weeks to finish seasoning in our humid air before you actually need them.

Wood Heat in Wilmington

Wilmington winters are short compared to much of the country, running roughly from mid November to late March, but the coastal humidity here means unseasoned wood struggles to dry out on its own once it hits your rack. Our firewood is seasoned well before delivery so it lights easily and burns hot instead of hissing and smoking from trapped moisture. Local oak, hickory, and pine make up most of what we deliver, each suited to different parts of the burn season here in the Cape Fear region. With zone 8b winters rarely dropping into brutal cold, a smaller stockpile goes further than in northern climates, but the humid air still demands properly dried wood for a clean burn. Buying seasoned hardwood that has already adjusted to our coastal moisture levels means fewer creosote issues and a fireplace that actually throws heat on the chilly nights we do get.

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 Wilmington winter actually require?

Because our heating season runs roughly from mid November to late March, most Wilmington households burning a few nights a week get through the season on a half cord to a full cord. Folks who only light occasional fires for ambiance often do fine with 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 instead of being freshly cut, which matters a lot in our humid coastal air where green wood can take far longer to dry than it would inland. Seasoned wood lights faster, burns hotter, and produces less smoke and creosote buildup in your chimney.

Answer

What kinds of wood should I expect in my delivery?

Most loads are a mix of local oak and hickory for long, hot burns, with some pine mixed in for quick kindling and easy starts. The exact blend depends on what our local suppliers near Wilmington have seasoned and ready that week.

Answer

Is this firewood actually sourced near Wilmington?

Yes, all of our firewood is sourced locally near Wilmington rather than trucked in from far away. Keeping firewood local matters because moving wood long distances is one of the main ways invasive pests like the emerald ash borer spread from one region to another.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway work?

We drop the wood loose in your driveway rather than stacking it, so you will want to have a wheelbarrow or a plan ready for moving it to your storage spot. This keeps delivery efficient and keeps costs down compared to a stacked delivery service.

Answer

What is the difference between a quarter, third, half, and full cord?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet stacked, measuring 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is one fourth of that volume, our third cord is one third, and our half cord is exactly half, so you can scale your order to your fireplace use and storage space without overbuying.

Answer

Are there any local rules about burning wood in Wilmington?

New Hanover County occasionally issues air quality advisories during stagnant weather patterns, so it is worth checking local notices before burning on those days. Sticking to seasoned hardwood instead of green or damp wood also cuts down on the smoke that triggers these advisories in the first place.
