Measure a stack and see cords, face cords and what it should cost.

How it works

Length × height × log length gives cubic feet. A full cord is 128 cubic feet.

Before you order

  • Measure after stacking tightly, because loose loads shrink fast.
  • Cover only the top of a stack so air can dry the sides.
  • Check your state rules, since most regulate how wood is sold.
