Hardwoods are denser and burn longer with more heat, while softwoods ignite faster and burn quicker—both have advantages when properly seasoned.
Firewood delivery costs $200-400 per cord for seasoned hardwood in most areas, varying by region, wood type, and season. Premium and kiln-dried wood costs more.
Store firewood 20-30 feet from your home, elevated off the ground, and only bring inside what you’ll burn immediately to prevent insect problems.
Dry firewood shows cracks in end grain, sounds hollow when knocked together, weighs less, and measures below 20% moisture with a meter.
Creosote forms when smoke from wet wood or inefficient fires condenses in chimneys, creating a dangerous, flammable tar-like deposit.
