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.

For a typical Yonkers heating season running November through early April, most homes do well ordering between one half cord and one full cord depending on how often they burn.

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 prepping your property for winter, consider pairing your firewood order with mulch or soil from our Yonkers regional page to protect garden beds through the same frost window.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Stack your firewood off the ground on a pallet or rack, with the split side facing out, to keep it away from Yonkers's damp fall ground moisture. Leave gaps between rows for airflow, and cover only the top of the stack, not the sides, so humidity can escape rather than get trapped against the wood during freeze thaw cycles common through the winter.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Local oak takes longer to catch than ash or maple but throws impressively long, steady heat once established, making it ideal for overnight burns during Yonkers's coldest weeks. Start your fire with a smaller maple or ash split to build coals quickly, then add oak once the fire is established for a slow, dependable burn through the night.

Mulch Mound Pro Tip

Order your firewood well before the first frost typically hits Yonkers in early November, since demand climbs fast once temperatures drop and delivery windows tighten. Buying early also gives any slightly under seasoned splits extra weeks to dry out further in your stack before you actually need to rely on them for heat.

Wood Heat in Yonkers

Yonkers winters stretch from roughly the first frost around November 5 to the last frost near April 5, meaning many households are running wood stoves and fireplaces for close to five months. In the lower Hudson Valley, humidity swings between damp autumns and dry cold snaps, so wood that has not been properly seasoned tends to hiss, smoke, and throw off far less heat when you need it most. Our seasoned hardwood is dried down to burn cleanly through those long, humid to frigid stretches typical of Westchester County winters. Local oak, ash, and maple are the backbone of our mix because they split well, season efficiently in this climate, and produce strong, steady coals. Buying wood that has already gone through a proper seasoning cycle here in the region means less creosote buildup and safer, more efficient burns all season long.

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 will I actually need for a Yonkers winter?

Most Yonkers households burning a few nights a week from November through early April go through around one to one and a half cords. If you are heating primarily with wood rather than just enjoying occasional fires, plan closer to two full cords to get through the entire frost window comfortably.

Answer

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

Seasoned means the wood has been cut, split, and dried for months so its moisture content drops low enough to burn hot and clean. In a climate like Yonkers, where humidity can linger into fall, unseasoned or green wood struggles to dry properly once it is in your stack, so starting with wood that is already seasoned saves you a difficult, damp winter of poor fires.

Answer

What kinds of wood will I get in my delivery?

Expect a mix of local hardwoods common to the lower Hudson Valley, primarily oak, ash, and maple. These species are dense, split cleanly, and hold long, hot coal beds, which suits the extended heating season Yonkers homes typically need.

Answer

Is your firewood really sourced locally, and why should I care?

Yes, all our wood is sourced near Yonkers rather than trucked in from far away. Keeping firewood local matters because pests like the emerald ash borer spread when infested wood is moved long distances, and buying regionally helps protect the ash and hardwood trees still standing throughout Westchester County.

Answer

How does delivery to my driveway actually work?

We drop your order loose directly onto your driveway rather than stacking it, which keeps costs down and delivery times fast. You will want to have a stacking spot or rack ready so you can move it promptly, especially before Yonkers's first frost arrives.

Answer

How do I know how much a quarter, third, half, or full cord actually is?

A full cord is 128 cubic feet, stacked 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. Our quarter cord is a quarter of that volume, our third cord is a third, and our half cord is exactly half, so you can scale your order to match your fireplace usage or storage space without guessing.

Answer

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

Westchester County occasionally issues air quality advisories during stagnant weather patterns, and on those days it is best to hold off on burning if possible. Otherwise, using well seasoned hardwood like ours produces far less visible smoke and particulate than burning green or wet wood, which helps you stay a good neighbor on quiet Yonkers streets.
