Trusted Firewood for Sale for Residential Properties Across Connecticut
Seasoned Hardwood Firewood Delivered Across Connecticut
Our firewood for sale comes directly from the trees we remove across Connecticut predominantly native hardwoods including oak, maple, ash, cherry, and birch. Because we control the full process from removal to splitting to seasoning, we know exactly what species are in each load, how long the wood has been drying, and whether it is genuinely ready to burn. We do not buy bulk wood from unknown sources and resell it as seasoned.
At Erick’s Tree Services, firewood for sale are a natural extension of the tree work we do year-round. When we remove a large oak from a residential property in Fairfield or a stand of maple from a commercial lot in Stamford, the wood that comes out of those removals is split, stacked, and seasoned for a minimum of six to twelve months before it is sold. The result is firewood that burns hot, splits cleanly, and does not produce the excessive creosote buildup that green or poorly seasoned wood creates in chimneys and flue systems.
Connecticut winters are long and cold enough that the quality of your firewood makes a real difference, both in the heat your fireplace or wood stove produces and in the condition of your chimney at the end of the season.
Why Buy Firewood for sale from Erick’s Tree Services in Connecticut?
WHAT WE CAN DO FOR YOU
Seasoned Mixed Hardwood (Standard) Our most popular option. A mixed load of Connecticut native hardwoods primarily oak, maple, ash, cherry, and birch split to standard 16-inch lengths and seasoned a minimum of six months. Suitable for fireplaces, wood stoves, fire pits, and outdoor wood boilers. This is the right choice for most Connecticut homeowners who burn regularly through the heating season.
Premium Oak Firewood Single-species loads of Connecticut red and white oak, the highest-density, longest-burning hardwood available in the region. Oak burns at a higher BTU rating than any other common Connecticut species and produces a long, consistent coal bed that is ideal for wood stoves and overnight burns. Premium oak loads are seasoned a minimum of twelve months. Available in limited quantity, contact us for current availability.
Kindling Dry, split softwood and small hardwood kindling for starting fires. Sold in bundles or by the box. Properly dried kindling is the most underrated element of a good fire wet or green kindling is the reason most “the wood won’t catch” problems happen. Our kindling is dry and ready to use.
Half Cord and Full Cord Options We sell firewood in half-cord and full-cord quantities. A full cord is a stack of wood measuring 4 feet wide by 4 feet tall by 8 feet long, 128 cubic feet of stacked wood. A half cord is 64 cubic feet. We also offer face cords (a single row 4 feet tall by 8 feet long by 16 inches deep) for customers who want a smaller quantity for occasional burning.
Delivery & Stacking Hardwood Firewood is delivered by truck and unloaded at your property. For customers who want the wood stacked, in a woodshed, on a rack, or along a wall, stacking is available at an additional per-cord rate. Delivery scheduling is confirmed at time of order.

Ordering and receiving firewood from us is straightforward:

Schedule Delivery — We schedule a delivery date that works for your availability. Most Connecticut deliveries within our service area are fulfilled within one to two weeks of order. During peak season (October through December), lead times may be longer, ordering before the heating season is strongly recommended.
Delivery & Unloading — Our truck arrives at the scheduled time. Wood is unloaded at your property at the designated drop location. For stacking orders, our crew stacks the wood at the agreed location woodshed, rack, or wall before departure.
Inspect Your Load — We encourage you to look over the delivery before our crew leaves. If anything about the load does not meet what was quoted — species mix, volume, apparent moisture — tell us on the spot. We stand behind what we deliver.
Firewood Prices in Connecticut — What to Expect
Firewood prices in Connecticut vary by season, species, quantity, and whether delivery and stacking are included.
Firewood prices in Connecticut typically rise 15 to 25% between September and December as heating season demand peaks. The best time to buy firewood is late summer — July through September — when prices are at their annual low and delivery lead times are shortest. Buying a full cord in August for the coming winter almost always costs less per BTU than buying in November when demand peaks.
A cord of quality seasoned hardwood in Connecticut delivers approximately 20 to 29 million BTU depending on species roughly equivalent to 145 to 200 gallons of heating oil at current efficiency rates. For homes with active fireplaces or wood stoves, the math on firewood vs. supplemental heating fuel consistently favors quality hardwood when purchased before peak season.
How to Store Correctly Firewood in Connecticut
Proper storage protects your firewood investment and keeps it burning well through the season:
Stack off the ground.
Cover the top, not the sides.
Construction or development conflicts.
Store away from your house.
Use oldest wood first.
Bring in only what you’ll burn.

Everything you need to know about our tree removal Connecticut services.
A full cord of firewood is a stack measuring 4 feet wide by 4 feet tall by 8 feet long, 128 cubic feet of tightly stacked wood. A face cord (also called a rick) is a single row measuring 4 feet tall by 8 feet long by whatever the split length is — typically 16 inches — which is roughly one-third of a full cord. A half cord is 64 cubic feet. In Connecticut, delivered full cords of seasoned mixed hardwood typically cost $350 to $550 depending on species and delivery distance.
For heat output and burn duration, white oak is the top-performing species available in Connecticut, producing 29.1 million BTU per cord and an excellent long-lasting coal bed ideal for wood stoves. Red oak, sugar maple, and white ash are all strong performers for both fireplaces and wood stoves. Avoid softwoods like pine as primary fuel, they burn fast, produce more smoke, and deposit creosote in chimneys at a significantly higher rate than hardwoods.
Check the cut ends of split pieces properly seasoned wood shows cracks and checks radiating from the center as the wood dries and contracts. The wood should feel noticeably lighter than fresh-cut pieces of the same size. Bark should be loose or already fallen off on many pieces. No hissing sound when the wood is placed near a flame. A moisture meter reading below 20% is the definitive test, we target under 20% on all loads we sell.
Late summer — July through September — is the best time to buy firewood in Connecticut. Prices are at their annual low, delivery scheduling is flexible, and you have time to stack and allow any remaining moisture to equalize before the heating season begins. Prices typically rise 15 to 25% between September and December as demand peaks. Buying a full cord in August almost always costs less than the same wood in November.
For occasional fireplace use, one to two cords typically covers a Connecticut heating season. Regular use of a fireplace or fire pit four to five times per week requires two to three cords. A wood stove used daily as a primary heat supplement typically requires three to five cords. A wood stove used as the primary heat source in a well-insulated Connecticut home typically needs five to eight cords. These estimates assume properly seasoned hardwood, green wood requires significantly more volume for the same heat output.
Yes. We deliver firewood to residential and commercial addresses across our Connecticut service area. Delivery includes unloading at your property at the designated drop location. Stacking at a woodshed, rack, or wall location is available as an add-on at a per-cord rate. Contact us for current delivery pricing and stacking availability in your area.
Contact us to discuss pickup options. Pickup availability depends on current yard inventory and scheduling. For most customers in our service area, delivery is more convenient and cost-effective than arranging transportation for a half-cord or full-cord load, but we are happy to discuss pickup if that works better for your situation.
