How Much Wood Fits?

Measure actual usable stack space, see the equivalent stacked cubic feet and cord quantity, then record the route from delivery point to stack.

Tool entries stay here unless you choose to share or submit them.

Stack dimensions

Measure usable space

Use the space the wood can actually occupy — not the rack's outside dimensions.

For one row of 16-inch pieces, enter about 16 inches. For two parallel rows, enter their actual combined depth.

Access result

Trailer access needs confirmation

Safe photographs from well away from hazards, ordinary clearance measurements, and an unloading or turnaround plan are needed before a trailer delivery is assumed.

Screening assumptions: driveway-side stacking is 15 feet or less; a step-free carry from 16–100 feet is treated as wheelbarrow access; more than 100 feet, a hill, or soft ground is treated as special access. A gate under 120 inches, uncertain trailer entry or turnaround, overhead concern, or roadway backing triggers confirmation. Actual vehicle dimensions and field conditions govern.

Copy, print, and share run only when you choose them. Sharing sends this summary to the app or person you select.

Georgia defines one cord as 128 cubic feet when wood is ranked and well-stowed — compactly stacked in parallel rows with pieces touching. Georgia rules require nonpackaged firewood to be advertised, offered, and sold by the cord, a fractional cord, or cubic meter, and prohibit sale terms such as face cord, rack, pile, truckload, or similar terms. This result is not a certified measurement or a substitute for required labels or delivery tickets.
