Our hickory firewood is locally sourced, processed, and kiln-dried in the northeastern United States from hickory trees. Hickory wood is a dense, hot-burning firewood, producing about 27.7 million BTUs per cord. This high heat output is comparable to oak, making it a popular choice among those seeking long-lasting, intense heat. Hickory wood has a robust, slightly sweet aroma that is perfect for adding a distinct flavor to your BBQ, smoking, or grilling. The wood's density also ensures a long burn time, making it ideal for both outdoor and indoor use. While it may be challenging for novices due to its heat intensity, hickory is highly valued by experienced pitmasters, chefs, and wood burners for its exceptional burning qualities.

Split Sizes

Standard Split — our everyday cut: a mix of medium and smaller pieces that works in most fireplaces, stoves, fire pits and cookers.

Thin Split — mostly small, thin pieces (some smaller still) that catch fast and burn hot. Great for starting fires and smaller fireboxes.

Every order is a natural mix, so piece sizes vary.

Questions, answered

Do you stack the wood?

Yes. We deliver in reusable bins, unload, and stack the wood neatly wherever you want it — the bins leave with us. What you’re left with is your firewood, stacked and ready to burn.

Do I need to be home for delivery?

No. Tell us where you want the wood at checkout — porch, garage, backyard, building lobby — and our crew will deliver and stack it there. We’ll send a photo when it’s done.

Where do you deliver, and how fast?

We deliver locally across New York, New Jersey, Connecticut and beyond — there’s always a free option, with limited free next-day delivery — and ship boxed firewood nationwide.

Why kiln-dried firewood?

Kiln-drying removes moisture in a controlled environment, so the wood lights easily, burns hot and clean, and produces less smoke and creosote. It’s also pest- and mold-free — and ready to burn the day it arrives.

How much wood do I need?

A City Cord (6 bins) covers occasional fires for a month or two. Fill Your Firewood Rack tops off a standard 4-foot rack. A Face Cord — 4 feet high by 8 feet long — is a season’s supply for regular burners.

What’s the difference between a cord and a face cord?

A cord is the standard unit of measurement for firewood: a stack 4 feet high by 4 feet deep by 8 feet long. A face cord is one row of that — 4 feet high by 8 feet long at one log deep. Our packages go from a single bin up to a face cord and beyond.

How long does it burn?

About 1–2 hours per bundle, and it goes up from there — roughly 2–3 hours per bin, and a rack or cord keeps you going all season.

Can I pick up in store?

Yes. Our firewood is stocked at local retailers all over the city — delis, grocers and hardware stores — so you can grab a bundle, bag or box today without waiting on a delivery. We recommend calling ahead to make sure they’re in stock.
