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.
