R Sykes Fire Wood Inc. — Firewood Delivery in Exeter, RI
R Sykes Fire Wood Inc. supplies mixed hardwoods to Exeter homeowners and surrounding areas. Whether you're heating your home through the New England winter or stocking wood for seasonal fireplaces, hardwoods deliver the BTU output you need: oak averages 24–28 million BTU per cord, while hickory reaches 27–30 million BTU per cord. These dense woods burn longer and hotter than softwoods, making them the practical choice for consistent heat.
Hardwood Firewood Delivery to Your Door
The company handles firewood delivery, eliminating the trip to cut and haul wood yourself. Firewood is sold by the cord (128 cubic feet), half-cord, and quarter-cord loads—know your unit before ordering so you don't overstock or run short mid-season. Delivery windows vary by season and demand, so call ahead at (401) 286-1326 to confirm timing and load availability.
What to Know Before You Order
Mixed hardwoods work well for most heating applications, but moisture content matters: aim for wood at 20% moisture or lower. Green or wet wood (above 30% moisture) smolders, creates creosote buildup in chimneys, and wastes heat. Ask R Sykes about how long their wood has been seasoned and where it's stored—covered stacks age better than open piles.
In Exeter's cold climate, a typical household burns 3–5 cords per season, depending on home size, insulation, and heating frequency. Order early in fall to secure supply before peak demand.

"I called around for wood after the recent blizzard as I realized I was very low on wood for the coming negative degree days. Ron picked up, and I was fortunate to hear he had good seasoned fire wood. He quoted me a very fair price for what I would consider short notice and stayed very communicative through the whole process. The most impressive thing was his honesty and that he did exactly what he said he would, followed up when he said he would, and delievered a big cord earlier then his quoted time. My wife and I appreciate the experience greatly, we will be using him the future. His services are worth it."
"I call this guy and ask how do I know I'm getting a true cord. This turkey gets pissed and hangs up. You can buy from him if you want. I sure as hell won't. Anyone who is unwilling to answer a simple question is probably hiding something!!!"
"This was the nicest firewood I've ever gotten. Highly recommend if you want decent seasoned firewood."
