How to pick the right amount
Start with how you burn. A few bundles or a box covers an occasional evening. A city cord or quarter cord suits a casual fireplace. A face cord or half cord is for heating through the season.
Kiln-dried vs. seasoned firewood
Seasoned wood has air-dried for months or more, and how dry it is depends on how it was stored. Kiln-dried wood is dried in a kiln, so it’s dry from the start, lights easier, and burns with less smoke. Our bundles are kiln-dried for 30+ hours and USDA compliant, which is also what makes it fine to ship across state lines.

Multiple Species Oak, hickory, cherry, apple, ash, and mixed hardwood.
Match the species to the use. Denser hardwoods like oak and hickory burn longer and put out more heat, which makes them a good fit for overnight heating. Fruitwoods like cherry and apple burn a bit faster but bring a milder, sweeter smoke that's popular for grilling and smoking. Ash is a common choice for pizza ovens because it lights quickly and burns hot and clean.
Match the length to your firebox or oven. Standard splits run 16", which fits most wood stoves and fireplaces. Shorter 12" and 8" cuts fit smaller stoves, fire pits, and cooking setups. Mini-format wood is cut for pizza ovens and portable cookers where firebox space is limited.
Kiln-dried vs. seasoned. Kiln-dried wood is dried in a controlled environment to a low moisture content, so it's ready to burn immediately with minimal smoke. Air-seasoned wood is dried outdoors over several months and can vary more in moisture depending on how it was stored.

Frequently Asked Questions
What's the difference between kiln-dried and regular firewood?
Kiln-dried firewood is dried in a controlled environment to a consistently low moisture content, so it lights faster and produces less smoke and creosote. Regular seasoned firewood is air-dried outdoors, which can take several months and leaves moisture content more variable.
How much wood do I need?
It depends on your stove or fireplace, how often you burn, and your climate. Heating firewood is available in a range of quantities so you can start small and reorder as needed.
What length should I order?
Check your stove, fireplace, or oven's firebox dimensions first. 16" splits fit most standard wood stoves and fireplaces; shorter cuts suit smaller stoves, fire pits, and pizza ovens.
How should I store firewood once it arrives?
Keep it off the ground and covered on top while allowing airflow on the sides — a firewood rack works well for this. Avoid fully sealing wood in plastic, which can trap moisture.
