Received what was ordered. The fully seasoned wood was sold out. I need to remember to order earlier next time. I ordered the partially seasoned wood. As described the woods still needs to be seasoned for a bit but some of it was dry enough to burn right away. The price was right and the delivery was on time. Other reviews said the wood was covered in mud. I found that not to be the case. This company delivers what was promised read more

we accidentally ordered our newest delivery and had somehow missed that we placed the order for unseasoned wood. we received communication same day from Ed at Splitz - checking in to confirm if we had intended to order said non seasoned wood. we did not. this was very helpful and showed great customer service. further more, Ed worked out the solution of changing the order to the proper wood, and just charging the difference as an amended order itself rather than the whole shebang of cancelling the original and processing a new one. we appreciated both actions very much! it was absolutely an oversight placing the order, placed during a busy day - but Ed saved us from a far worse scenario by taking the extra step to reach out and confirm on his own. well done! many thanks! we appreciate you looking out. read more

The WORST!! There are plenty of places to get firewood besides these guys. They dumped a cord of wood at the WRONG address blocking my neighbors cars in. Then ignored my repeated phone calls and emails. (The kind delivery guy was given wrong address - wasn't his fault). I saw they had the wrong address when they acknowledged my order and made repeated email replies and phone messages explaining and they still did this and refused to speak with me. If you want to avoid paying good money to undeserving people find someone else. read more

Purchased a cord of "seasoned" firewood. More than half of it is wet. Some of it looks like it has been sitting in the mud. I can hear the sizzle while lit, see the moisture coming out of the side of the wood while attempting to burn and it smolders and smokes. Not happy at all that paid for seasoned and planned on using the wood for heat and that is not what I received. Wood is not kiln dryer, it is left out in the rain ................................ After the owners reply, I never was misled by anything. I was just noting in my review for future buyers to be aware that the wood is not kiln dried and did not appear or burn like seasoned wood. In terms of the owners response about his first time hearing about my concern, I called to to voice my issues and was told, "Sorry, we have heard that from a few people now". So evidently the staff is not relaying concerns to management from a few different customers. I was told that they recommend a fire starter. I appreciate the refund offer, but I spent 5 hours moving and stacking all of the wood already, so it is not going to do me any good for someone to come back to get it. I disagree with with your opinion that the wood is seasoned. It is tough to get a fire going and then once i can get anything hot enough to burn, it smolders, smokes and hisses (water) the entire time. Almost every piece of wood looks like the picture I posted while burning. I did not post anything out of school or untrue in this review. Just voiced a disappointed review. read more

Splitz Firewood - Water coming out of wood while attempting to burn - Firewood Near Me

Ordered a cord of firewood from Splitz in late December. The delivery was made from a Monster Tree truck so they must've partnered with them. The wood was so wet that after a few weeks of leaving it outdoor with cover, it's still too wet to burn. It's supposedly season (6-9 months per their site) but some of it looks freshly cut. They mentioned during the order that you're not buying a cord of wood but that you're buying approximately 150 cubic feet of wood loose. When stacked, it comes to about 80-85% of a cord which is disappointing. The price is lower than others in the area so you get what you pay for. Quite a bit of debris left over but they warn us during the order so I guess I should've expected that. read more

See all

I've ordered from Splitz twice and I don't plan to do it again. Both times the wood was delivered quickly. Both times there was a lot of bark and debris, etc. in with the wood. For the price, I was happy enough the first time around. But this second load of supposedly seasoned firewood is ridiculously wet. It's actually damp to the touch and not only sizzles and smokes once I get it going, but actually drips! I've never seen firewood dripping wet before. I'm glad we have an oil furnace to get us through the rest of the winter, because if we were actually relying on this wood to heat our home we'd be in trouble. read more

Splitz Firewood - Dripping wet "seasoned" firewood - Firewood Near Me

WOULD NOT RECOMMEND. My wife and I ordered a cord of wood to be delivered on a Saturday they said they would be there by five. Didn't show up, I called. They said that their truck had broken down and they called the wrong person to reschedule, okay whatever. They said they would deliver the next day. At this point I should have just cancelled the order a company who can't keep their deliveries straight and accepts cash only is a company I don't want to deal with, but for some reason I said they could deliver it the next morning. Well, Sunday morning they show up with what looks like 3/4 of a cord at most. The woman goes to drop the wood and I said that I wanted to look at if first. Well this wood was awful, like it was sitting in a swamp for the better part of a year. I could squeeze the black, dirty, wet wood apart with one hand. The rest of it just crumbled. Probably one quality piece in five. Told her I didn't want it, there was no way that this wood could be used in a firepit outside let alone my stove inside. Awful, Stay clear. read more

We also had a bad experience with Splitz. We ordered 1/2 cord seasoned and 1/2 cord green. We were quoted $200, plus $30 for delivery and $30 for stacking (which was a little high for the area, but their contact person was faster at getting back to me than other businesses in the area). This was a total of $260. On the day of delivery, they arrived over an hour after they promised. The invoice was $275 (because they estimated it would take 1.5 hours to stack the wood at $30 an hour). When they came to the door to collect 20 minutes later, I forgot to deduct the extra $15 for the stacking of the wood (and of course, they didn't remind me). I then went out to check the wood (after they pulled away, which was my mistake). We were short at least 10 cubic feet after I measured, and here is the kicker: THEY STACKED THE GREEN WOOD IN WITH THE SEASONED WOOD! So, this winter, I am going to have to pull out all the green pieces and restack them separately. Why would you do that? Talk about a complete lack of common sense. I haven't even bothered to contact them to make it right. It's not worth the aggravation. But, if you are looking for a firewood business, DON'T USE SPLITZ. They overcharge, short you wood, and are generally ignorant. read more

Shorted me on my delivery TWICE!!!! I ordered a full cord of seasoned wood. $235.00 CASH When the truck delivered the wood it looked like a small load based on what has been delivered in the past, but I did not say anything because I did not want to accuse them of a short load BEFORE I stacked the wood. I have three wood racks 8 x 4 (the same racks purchased at any home improvement store) The three racks together are 4 X 4 X 8 = One Cord. I started the day with ONE of the wood racks 2/3+ full BEFORE the new wood was delivered. After stacking the new wood I had a total of 2 1/2 racks of wood. I was short 1/3 of a cord. I immediatly called splitz firewood and the call went right to voicemail. I left a nice message explaining the situation. About an hour later Jennifer called me back apologized for the shortage and said she was on her way to my house with more wood. She said "a new guy" loaded the first truck and she was sorry for the mix up. I told her that was fine, mistakes happen and I appreciated her professionalism and how fast she was to correct the problem. When I returned home there was a small pile of wood at the top of my drive. I stacked the wood and was able to fill my third rack. So I now have one cord of wood. The problem is, I STARTED WITH ALMOST 1/3 CORD. SO I AM STILL SHORT!!!!! I wrote Jennifer an email telling her that the load is still WAY SHORT. She wrote back saying; "Paul, I am sorry you are stil unsatisfied i will talk to my manager and get back to you. Jennifer" I have not heard anything yet. It's been two days since the delivery. I am not asking for anything other than what I paid for. I paid for a full cord, all I want is a full cord. Is that wrong? Am I out of line? I am happy with the quality of wood, but shorting the customer is just WRONG!!! I advise everyone to go elsewhere for your wood. Or at the very least, pay for them to stack the wood and MEASURE BEFORE YOU PAY!!!!!!!!!! UPDATE: 10 days later. Third time is a charm. Splitz delivered more wood today. I HAVE MY FULL CORD!!!!! They apologized for the shortage and all the problems. They "made a mistake" but they did FIXED it. read more

I've got a dual-fuel heater in my home. It burns oil or firewood. Firewood is a LOT cheaper on a $$$/BTU basis. I've been burning firewood for the past seven years. I've had good and bad experiences buying it. I've learned to purchase it in the summer. That way I sure I get at least a few months of seasoning. Believe me, you don't want to buy in the winter unless you want to try and burn wood that was cut yesterday. Four years ago I started buying from Splitz. I buy two cords a year. I had no complaints. Good count. Good wood. Reasonable price. They dumped it exactly where I asked. They delivered on schedule. I just got finished stacking this years delivery. Generally, firewood is split into a 'square' or 'pizza-shaped' piece. The edge of these pieces measures from 3 to 4 inches. That buns nice and long in my heater. This year, they delivered a decent count. But the pieces were MUCH smaller. The overwhelming majority were under 3 inches on a side. That will cause them to burn MUCH faster. I doubt that I'll make it thru January on this load. I callled Splitz. Had a polite conversation with the lady on phone. Told her my story. Was told "We get a lot of complaints from people who burn in their fireplaces because the pieces are cut too large. If you want to get large-splits, let us know." Considering that past years, this was not the case, I take that explanation with a grain of salt. I asked for a partial refund but was denied without even discussing the amount of the refund. Not happy. read more

Do not buy your firewood here. I ordered early and asked about the quality, then decided to give them a shot. I ordered 2 cords and couldn't be more disappointed. The wood quality is a 1 out of 10. It's covered in mud, and looks 100 years old...will it burn??? I'm sure it will. But I don't want to bring it in the house. Never again. read more

Ordering was fast and easy! Delivery within 2 days and would looks/burns great! I chose the hand stacking and they called to let me know delivery was being done today. read more

I just got the wood delivered. It is the worst fire wood I have ever seen. It is SOAKED and frozen as if its from a mud pit. I put it in the fire and it puts the fire out literally. The only way I can get it to light is if I buy home depot wood and get it hot enough for splitz wood and then I can only put 1 piece in at a time otherwise the fire goes out. What a scam this company is. They should be ashamed of themselves. Do not use splitz. I wish I checked yelp first. After a few weeks sitting in my garage it was still wet and put out my fires. So I took an ax to the wood and began splitting it. All the wood is soaked completely through. I basically paid for a cord of completely soaked, muddy and useless wood. Unbelievable. read more

Awful - stay away! Ordered wood from Splits in January 2014. Wood was pungy and soaked to the core. Wood would not stay lit in my fireplace! Their website says the wood is seasoned, but it's absolutely not. I spoke to Splitz directly and apparently I was not the only customer with the issue. I worked with them for weeks to get a resolution, but to no avail. They promised seasoned wood, but it never came. I ended up disputing with my credit card company as the owner doesn't do refunds. read more

As I expected, no response from the company. The wood does not stay lit, is super smoky, and is just pretty much worthless. If you put a Duraflame in, it may eventually ignite. What a poor choice of companies on my part. read more

Exactly what I expected. They dropped the wood on a tarp I put down to mark where I wanted it. I ordered 1 cord in Aug using a coupon I received. I just called to buy another cord before they run out and they said they would honor the same discounted price. Saved me $30.00 read more

It is my understanding that Splitz is now under new ownership. Hence the bad reviews. I got exactly what I ordered in a timely manor. A big shout out to Jenna and the rest of the Splitz Firewood crew. Friendly, prompt and good fire wood. read more

My wood guy moved to Pittsburg & no longer delivers so I thought I'd try someone new. Their web site looked great but their wood not so much. Wood was covered in mud & mold. Had to power wash the pile several times. I never had to power wash my wood in the past. Would not buy from them again. read more

I also was victimized by this company. The first two cords I bought from them were better than other firewood dealers I had dealt with. The wood was generally clean, but there were a lot of gargantuan pieces that were like telephone poles split in half. The third load this fall was absolute garbage. Covered with caked on black dirt and even though they advertise 16" lengths, I had a lot of 5 inch pieces as well as some over 2 feet long and just generally crappy. It seems that they take all the stuff that wouldn't split and just threw it in the pile. Also I'm pretty sure I didn't get a full cord, but the pieces are so irregular that it's next to impossible to get a uniform stack to measure. BTW, if you like burning seasoned wood, forget it! This stuff sits covered for several months and still has water oozing out the ends. Fortunately I have a couple cords I split and stacked myself from a neighbors tree that they had cut down. Maybe that's the only way to get something done right. Can't wait till it's ready to burn. read more

Ordered too late for my regular place and they were out - tried Splitz. Was told that the wood was seasoned, but i've been fighting to burn this stuff all winter, listening to it hiss, steam and pop - there's absolutely no way this was properly seasoned. Also, they don't schedule your delivery - they drop when it fits their schedule - so had my driveway blocked midweek when they chose to deliver. Price was fair, not great. Wouldn't use again. read more

This was one of the worst experiences I have had with a local business. I ordered 3 cords of seasoned firewood to be delivered an stacked at my house. The total for the wood and stacking was $705, which was on par with other firewood providers. Their website was fine and seemed legitimate, though now that I have looked it over, I notice that there is no address for the business. When I was working with them to schedule the firewood delivery, they informed me that I needed to pay in cash (which should have thrown up a red flag). They came and delivered and stacked the wood as planned, and I paid them $705 in cash. Shortly after they left, I decided to measure the wood because it was smaller stack than I was expecting for 3 cords (I know, I should have done this before I paid them). What I found is that i received nothing close to 3 cords of wood. 3 cords should have occupied about 384 cubic feet - the wood they had delivered occupied about 290 cubic feet, so I was shorted about 0.75 cords of wood (about $175 worth of wood). I immediately called their phone number and I was told that my message would be relayed to the owner and I would be taken care of. After hearing nothing for about 3 hours, I called the number again and I was told again that the owner was not "back" yet and I would be hearing from him shortly. I did not hear back that day, so I called again the next day (in the evening). At this point it had been about 24 hours since the wood had been delivered. The woman again told me that the owner would get back to me - surely that night. I told her that they were welcome to come and measure the wood themselves, and since they stacked it they knew I did not move any of it. I left the conversation a bit frustrated, but at least expecting to hear back from the owner. Again, i heard nothing the rest of that day or night until I checked my email. I had received a VERY poorly written email that essentially stated that they don't think they slighted me, but to throw me a bone they would provide 1/4 cord of additional wood. I responded stating that I was slighted 3/4 cord of wood, and that they could come and measure to verify. I was not going to negotiate - I paid for 3 cords so I should get 3 cords. I stated that I paid for a product and service that I had not fully received, and that if they did not make it right, they were thieves (I was a little pissed). The next day I received a belligerent voicemail filled with profanities from the owner telling me to talk to his lawyer and that they would not deliver the wood I was missing. He followed that up with another belligerent email - the first line is "I am mad with how you have acted with this hole problem. I own 4 company's and never had a problem that was unsettled". I calmly responded that I was not going to sue him over $175 of firewood, and that i was only asking for what I paid for. I left it up to him to make things right, and after about another 2 weeks, he dropped an additional half-cord of "junk" wood in my driveway. It was mostly rotten, not cut to length, deformed pieces of junk wood. It is pretty much impossible to burn this wood unless i am running a very hot fire with the flu mostly open. Bottom line, don't buy anything from Splitz Firewood or any other company that this owner works for or "owns". read more

Unbelievably disappointing. We ordered a full cord for our insert and have had to spend so much extra money on additional dry firewood in order to use wood from Splitz. It came completely soaked, black, and muddy. Over a month later, the wood is still not fully dried out and it is filthy. The burn quality is awful - you can hear and see the moisture sizzling. Some of it is also green - clearly not properly seasoned, in spite of their claims. To make matters worse, when we called to complain the owner questioned our experience, stating "no one else has had an issue" - which clearly is not true, considering all of the bad reviews on here. Will NEVER order here again and would not recommend. read more

Absolutely horrible company. I ordered a 1/2 cord of wood from them and it can't be burned. It is green wood that basically sizzles in the fireplace. Worse yet, I called and e-mailed them several times asking them to resolve this and they just kept blowing me off saying "the owner" would get back to me. They also showed up late for their window and put a sign on my lawn without asking. BE WARNED! DO NOT USE THESE GUYS. read more

This is the worst wood ever. Wet and we did not get a full cord.Thanks for taking advantage of people ordering firewood for the first time. You must feel good to take peoples money and not give the product advertised. Thats ok I will be sure to tell everyone I know never to order from you. read more

Don't bother calling this place. Called on Saturday looking to place an order for 1/2 cord of wood and a woman answered a cell phone - she was in her car and asked that I call back on Monday. Ok, no problem. I called back on Monday and left a detailed message for a return call. No return call at all. I guess business is so good they don't need mine. Finally, this morning I called Under Dog Supply and my wood will be delivered tomorrow - cheaper. I'm not going to chase down anyone to spend my money. read more

Forget about the other reviews....order your firewood from Splitz! I don't order wood regularly so I don't have a go to. Now I do. Jenna from Splitz left me a voicemail AND a text message first thing Monday morning after getting my voicemail on Sunday. Most folks don't even call back! I read the past reviews and had concerns about wet, muddy wood. Nope. Jenna sent me pictures of what to expect and that's exactly what showed up. Dry, unmuddy, seasoned wood that was cut appropriately. It was delivered in a few days and they dropped it in my driveway exactly where I asked them to. After I stacked it, there was no more than one shovel full of debris (which actually could been burned or used for kindling but I'm too lazy for that). They accepted cash, check or credit card so I didn't need to be there when they delivered and the price was fair. Jenna mentioned that the company was under new ownership. In my opinion, they're doing things much better than the previous ones. read more

Woods a little dirty, wet (not green at all). The delivery was 7days not 5, so it came on a rainy day, which didn't help. But like any good firewood it was dry in two days. It burns good and hot if you know how to start a fire. No problems with the amount ordered and the amount delivered. All in all, beats hauling, cutting and splitting myself. Price was the same everywhere, after calling around some guys didn't even have wood this time of year so glad I got some. My sun room is nice and warm, exactly what I was trying I accomplish. read more

Just got wood from here the other day. Very nice guys. Prices were on par with everyone else. Really liked the girl that took the order. Arrived when they said they would and stacked would nicely. Can't wait to use the fireplace this season. Definately recommend them. read more

I ordered wood from Splitz two years in a row with the same results...dirty, wet, unseasoned wood. I should not complain since the picture on their homepage is exactly what I got. Also, from the reviews, it should be a no brainer. Customer Service was pretty friendly and accommodating when I requested the wood to be delivered on Friday...unfortunately I did not specify when, so I got it at the end of the day, which kind of sucked since I took the day off to stack the wood. Either way, it came apparent to me that the quality is just not there with Splitz since my neighbor received a solid looking cord of wood that looks clean and seasoned. Can you say wood envy?!? I will have to ask him where he gets his wood. May be worth the extra $25. read more

Nice guy that delivered the firewood, but it does not burn. When I contacted them about it, they asked how I was trying to lite my fire. They also said "i sorry you are upset but can i remind you that our wood is subject to the weather because it is stored out side and we just had a lot of rain". I guess it is my fault that I did not check the weather for the last couple weeks. They were also late for delivery. I ll just have to save the wood and let it season for next year and go order some for this year from some where else. I did ask for my money back and told them they could pick up the wood, but no reply to that. read more

Splitz firewood is the worst firewood I ever bought. I got the wood in January 2014 it was soaking wet and part frozen with mud I wish I had read the review first I called them to no avail it was talking to a wall. I have to set a fan and dehumidifier in front to help pull off some of the water, I went a bought a moisture meatier and found most of the wood was above 50% moisture content. DO NOT BUY FROM SPLITZ FIREWOOD go to another dealer. read more

I should have heeded the warnings written about this company. They delivered a cord of wood, but it was not seasoned, was not all hardwoods and was soaking wet. All these issues were contradictory to what their website claims. I purchased the wood in January 2015 and will have to use it this coming winter of 2016. Looking at it from the perspective of the glass being half full, at least I have a cord of wood for this coming winter. read more

Made a mistake and delivered green wood. I called they came picked up green wood and brought seasoned. Made good on their mistake

I ordered a cord of wood which cost $225 plus a delivery fee of $30. When the driver arrived and dumped it into my driveway he said to me that there was a lot of "trash" in there which meant a lot of small pieces. I began going through the wood and had to separate it because there was so much debris and small pieces. I called and began texting Jenna who indicated that this was normal. I sent her pictures of what it looked like and was advised that the owner said it was normal and they recommended I spend an extra $35 to have it hand loaded. They offered to credit my account $35 so when I ordered again I could see what a hand loaded cord looked like. I turned down the offer. Long story short, I got 85% of wood and 15% of crap. You can find other companies who will deliver quality wood without the debris. Oh I also got a 3 foot rubber hose and two empty water bottles in my delivery as a bonus. read more
