About Cold Hollow Firewood
Cold Hollow Firewood — Hardwood Delivery & Custom Services in Colchester, VT
Cold Hollow Firewood supplies mixed hardwoods to homeowners and property managers across the Greater Burlington area and northwestern Vermont. Based in Colchester, they handle both delivery and customer pickup, making them a flexible option whether you need firewood dropped at your door or prefer to collect it yourself.
Wood Quality & BTU Output
Mixed hardwood cords typically deliver 20–24 million BTU per cord when properly seasoned, with oak variants running 24–28M BTU and hickory reaching 27–30M BTU. The key is moisture content: Cold Hollow's kiln-drying service reduces wood to below 20% moisture, accelerating seasoning and improving burn efficiency compared to air-dried stock. This matters if you're burning in a fireplace or wood stove where creosote buildup from wet wood becomes a maintenance and safety concern.
Beyond Firewood Delivery
Beyond standard firewood sales, Cold Hollow offers custom cutting—useful if you need shorter pieces for a specific stove or fireplace opening. Their brush mulching and forestry mulching services appeal to property owners clearing land or managing storm debris. These complementary offerings reflect the operational scope of a regional supplier rather than a simple cord-and-deliver operation.
Service Area Coverage
They serve the Greater Burlington metro and northwestern Vermont, so delivery windows and pricing depend on your exact location. Typical cord pricing in the Colchester area runs $200–$350 per full cord (128 cubic feet), though partial cords (quarter and half-cord options) are available.
Next Steps
Call (802) 355-4556 to request a quote, confirm delivery availability for your address, and ask about current kiln-dried inventory. Have your zip code and preferred delivery window ready.

"The website claims "We clean our firewood by tumbling it twice through our tumble cleaner that removes dirt, loose bark or other debris. " The wood I received last year for my elderly mom was far from clean, was mostly white birch mixed with softwoods and a little locust. The wood was filthy, no way it was tumbled clean. Also looked like much of it was cut at different times, some had mold growing on the ends! I believe my mom was given the junk pile of wood, odd shapes and sizes and NEVER tumbled clean! The owner never returned my many phone calls."
"Well priced and incredible kiln-dried firewood - our home has never been so warm or happy! Glenn got right back to me right away when I wrote to ask if they still had firewood in stock and arranged a drop-off within a few days. The wood burns well and is great quality. Highly recommend!"
"Just installed a new stove that needs kiln dried wood to heat efficiently. All local suppliers have a several month backlog for bulk wood deliveries. I bought several bundles of Cold Hollow Ranch wood from a local retailer (they sell bundles at many supermarkets/gas stations/etc in Northern VT). If their bulk wood is a reflection of what they sell in bundles I will never order bulk from them. It’s sufficiently wet to hiss and burns really poorly."
"Excellent quality kiln dried firewood. Had dealt with another supplier for a few years before discovering CHR. Brian is friendly and getting loaded up is easy. Just make sure you got the right sized trailer or truck to pick up your own cord. I haven’t gotten a delivery from them but I can only imagine that their service is just as great. If you have a wood stove or insert you should be burning CHR’s kiln dried wood."
"My wife and I moved here from out of state less than two years ago and this year needed firewood to supplement our heat. We looked around and found that wood comes in all stages of cut - green, seasoned and kiln dried. When I called Cold Hollow Ranch I knew we found our supplier. Kiln dried, no moisture, NO BUGS, all hardwood and it was delivered when promised within two feet of our garage so we could stack it inside. It burns hot and lights quickly. Thank you!"
