Winter is here. The latest cold snap should be a reminder to stock up for the cold nights to come. 


Call now so you can have quality seasoned firewood on hand. 

This year marks over 47 years of delivering quality seasoned firewood at reasonable prices. I’m happy to say that this year we are able to let our customers choose either 100% hardwood or an outstanding mix of 50% hardwood and 50% softwood.  

Our 2022 price list:
$175 - half cord 50/50 hardwood/softwood mix
$325 - full cord 50/50 hardwood/softwood mix
$225 - half cord oak hardwood
$400 - full cord oak hardwood

Yes, our prices are higher this year. This is because the price of doing business is higher. I have tried to avoid price increases, but the realities are that costs has gone up. I have tried to keep the increase low. I hope that no one goes for a winter without wood for their fireplace because of this increase. If that is your reality, let me know and we can work something out.

We provide Free Local Delivery throughout the Crescenta Valley including Glendale, Montrose, La Cañada, Flintridge, La Crescenta, Tujunga, Sunland, Shadow Hills and Lakeview Terrace. There is a an extra charge for delivery outside of our local area.

Please note that firewood should be stored in a well-ventilated outdoor area protected from the elements. It is very important to store your firewood so it will remain dry so it will burn well. Burning wet or improperly seasoned firewood produces extra smoke and soot and should be avoided. Our team can advise you if you have questions.

Ask about good deals on limb logs and irregulars for camping and fire pits.

I still don’t do email. When you want to order or if you have any questions, please call. 

I wish you all warm and happy holidays - Dan Scully

Firewood Newsletter 2018 Online version


Once again we are offering quality seasoned firewood at reasonable prices. 
I’m sending my firewood newsletter early this year. The current hot dry weather tends to make us all forget it will soon be wet and cold. Call now so when we finally get a good rain you can have your firewood ready to add warmth and cheer to your home.
Last year we fell short of our goal of providing a 50/50 mix of hard and soft woods and we are still a bit short. This year’s mix is going to run 60% pine and 40% hardwood. 
Those of you who purchased from us before know all our woods burn well. Burning wet or improperly seasoned firewood produces a lot of extra smoke and soot and you will want to avoid that. We deliver seasoned dry wood, but how you store it will make a big difference in how it will burn.
It is very important to store your firewood so it will remain dry. Putting a cover over a woodpile is not enough. Dry wood will draw in moisture from the dew-filled night air. Firewood should be stored in a well-ventilated outdoor area protected from the elements.
We are offering three ways to buy mixed firewood this year:
$100 - quarter cord 60/40 pine/hardwood mix
$150 - half cord 60/40 pine/hardwood mix
$260 - full cord 60/40 pine/hardwood mix

We provide Free Local Delivery throughout the Crescenta Valley including Glendale, Montrose, La Cañada, Flintridge, La Crescenta, Tujunga, Sunland, Shadow Hills and Lakeview Terrace. There is a $20 charge for delivery outside of our local area.  
Stacking is additional. Our current stacking prices start at $20 for a half cord if the stack is within 20 feet of where the pick-up truck is parked and 50 cents per step over 20 feet. For a full cord, the price is doubled.

Tips for Firewood Storage


I always try to get my firewood newsletter out before it gets cold to help avoid rush delivery scheduling. With all the terrible wildfires going on right now this may seem like a sore subject, however, I’m sure a good rain will help us all feel better.
We are still trying to achieve a 50/50 hardwood to pine ratio for our mixed wood product, but this year our mix is going to be closer to 60 percent pine and 40 percent hardwood. Because we have been avoiding taking in pine firewoods our next year’s mix looks to be a much higher percentage of hardwood. 

As always our seasoned and selected wood is excellent quality.
Do not burn wet wood. That smoke up your neighbor and and soot up your chimney. 
Someone asked me once what is the best way to store my firewood. I was so glad to be asked that question because I’ve given that a lot of thought. Even if you cover your wood, dry wood will draw in moisture from the dew-filled night air.
In Oregon wood tight wood sheds are common, however, the best storage of wood is actually a greenhouse.
If you reduce your wood supply by February to make room to start growing your tomatoes and restock your wood by June without breaking glass or plastic you will have done everything perfectly.
However last year I only had one fire before Valentine’s Day, and after that I enjoyed regular fires for about 6 weeks.
The last few years March has been quite chilly, and in fact, March holds both the coldest day and the rainiest day ever recorded here.
It seems there’s a market for 1/4 cords so I guess we’ll start selling those too for $100 delivered. 
Also ask about good deals on limb logs and irregulars for camping and fire pits.

In Case you missed it -- Dan Scully's 2017 Firewood Newsletter and Prices

Once again we are offering quality seasoned firewood at reasonable prices. 
Last winter we finally got our El Niño-like rain, however it came too late to save many drought-stressed pine trees. In 40 years I can’t remember removing so many dead pines in such a short time. Though we had a few hardwood tree removals we fell short of this year’s goal of providing a 50/50 mix of hard and soft woods. My best guess is that our mix is going to run 70% pine and 30% hardwood. I have negotiated an additional source of premium hardwoods for next year, which will prevent this kind of shortfall in the future.
Those of you who have purchased from us before know all our woods burn well.
Because we were so busy this spring we didn’t have all the wood split by my June 1st self-imposed deadline. Pine seasons quicker so this is probably not a big deal but our crew will be instructed to cast out any heavier-than-normal pieces. 

The good news is that we are reducing our mixed wood price this year. 

$140 - half cord 70/30 pine/hardwood mix
$250 - full cord 70/30 pine/hardwood mix

We provide Free Local Delivery throughout the Crescenta Valley including Glendale, Montrose, La Cañada, Flintridge, La Crescenta, Tujunga, Sunland, Shadow Hills and Lakeview Terrace. There is a $20 charge for delivery outside of the local area.  
Stacking is additional. Our current stacking prices start at $20 for a half cord if the stack is within 20 feet of where the pick-up truck is parked and 50 cents per step over 20 feet. For a full cord, the price is doubled.

Firewood should be stored in a well-ventilated outdoor area and protected from the elements.

Get your firewood early!

Over 40 years of tree trimming, tree services, firewood in Shadow Hills, La Crescenta, Sunland, Tujunga, La Canada, Flintridge, Montrose, and San Fernando California. 

Once again Dan Scully's Tree Services is offering quality seasoned firewood at reasonable prices.

Got Wood?

Over 40 years of tree trimming, tree services, firewood in Shadow Hills, La Crescenta, Sunland, Tujunga, La Canada, Flintridge, Montrose, and San Fernando California. 

Once again Dan Scully's Tree Services is offering quality seasoned firewood at reasonable prices. 

El Nino? El Schmino! The last couple winters have not had much rain, but it still gets cold during the winter nights in Los Angeles. When the weather is nippy there is nothing like lighting a fire in the fireplace to warm the home and chase away the chill. There is something elemental about the smoky aroma of a wood fire, the crackling sounds, the dancing flames and the glowing embers.

Our firewood was split prior to June 1, 2016 to allow a full summer of seasoning. We use only quality pine and hardwoods. Not all the wood we cut meets our standards for firewood. Our customers only get the best.

Oak costs more, but many customers prefer burning hardwood. Oak produces a slow-burning fire. Oak takes patience to start, but the result is a sustained fire.

Our mixed woods contain about 50% pine and 50% hardwood. Some feel that besides being economical, using a mixture of hardwood and softwood works because the softwoods ignite more quickly and then the hardwood burns longer after the fire is established. 

We deliver cords and half cords of seasoned firewood to customers throughout the Crescenta Valley. Our clients live in Glendale, Montrose, La Cañada, Flintridge, La Crescenta, Tujunga, Sunland, Shadow Hills, Lakeview Terrace and the surrounding areas. Order early to get the best selection. 

Our prices for delivered wood are:

$200 - half cord all oak hardwood
$360 - full cord all oak hardwood

$150 - half cord 50/50 pine/oak mix
$260 - full cord 50/50 pine/oak mix

All pricing includes delivery. Stacking is additional. Our current stacking prices start at $20 for a half cord if the stack is within 20 feet of where the pick-up truck is parked and 50 cents per step over 20 feet. For a full cord, the price is doubled.

Firewood should be stored in a well-ventilated outdoor area and protected from the elements. 

Small amounts of our firewood for camping, firepits, etc. can now be purchased at Verdugo Hills Golf Shop for $1 each. If you have purchased our wood at the golf course before, you will note that this price is unchanged.
