Cured premium hardwood for indoor fireplaces and outdoor fire pits. Easy to light, clean to burn, beautiful stacked.
A fire in a fireplace or fire pit is a small ritual — Friday nights, holidays, the first cool evening of fall. The wood you burn shapes the whole experience. Crossroads supplies central Virginia households with cured premium hardwood that lights easily on the first match, burns clean enough to sit close to, and stacks beautifully on the porch.
Cords
A typical fireplace or fire pit used on weekends burns about a half cord every month or two. Regular users (multiple evenings per week) burn a full cord per heating season.
Premium Mix by the bundle for occasional use, or by the half or full cord for regular users.
Weekend-fire households often start with a bundle or two to get a feel for it, then settle into a half cord every month or two. Regular fireplace and fire pit users typically take a full cord at the start of the season and restock once or twice through the winter.
Firewood from a Facebook Marketplace ad or a roadside sign is unpredictable — sometimes green, sometimes pine, sometimes who-knows-what hardwood that won't light. The first time you struggle to light a Saturday-night fire in front of company, the bargain stops feeling like a bargain. Crossroads sells premium firewood for households where the fire is the point.
Fully cured hardwood — red oak, white oak, and chestnut are the central Virginia gold standard. They burn hot, slow, and clean, with minimal smoke and minimal creosote. Avoid pine (sap, creosote), poplar (low BTU, ashy), and anything green or under-cured (won't light, smokes badly).
For a fireplace or fire pit used on weekends, plan on ½ to 1 cord per heating season. For more regular use (multiple evenings per week), plan on 1–2 cords. Use our Firewood Estimator for a personalized recommendation based on how you actually burn.
Bundles work for occasional weekend fires. If you use your fireplace or fire pit more than once a week, ordering by the half or full cord saves significant money over buying bundle by bundle.
