Can you mix different types of firewood?
Yes, mixing firewood types is smart strategy. Combine softwood for starting with hardwood for sustained heat, or blend species to balance cost and performance.
How is firewood delivered?

What is a cord of firewood?
A cord of firewood is 128 cubic feet, measuring 4 feet high × 4 feet deep × 8 feet long when neatly stacked.
Why does firewood need to be split?
Splitting firewood accelerates drying by exposing more surface area, enables proper ignition and combustion, and creates manageable sizes for efficient burning.
What questions should I ask when ordering firewood?
Ask about exact cord measurements, wood species, moisture content, piece size, delivery details, and pricing to ensure quality firewood at fair prices.
