Just wrapped up a delivery in Malibu — two full cords of red oak, split and ready to stack. This is the kind of order I look forward to. Malibu customers know their firewood, and red oak is the right call every time.
Here's what you're getting when you order red oak from Firewood Guys, and why it keeps coming back as the top choice for Malibu homes.
Why Red Oak Is the Best Firewood for Malibu
Red oak burns hotter and longer than most wood you'll find in Southern California. A cord of seasoned red oak will outperform a cord of mixed wood on every metric that matters — heat output, burn time, and coals that keep a fireplace or outdoor fire pit going through a cold Pacific night.
A few specifics worth knowing:
Heat output: Red oak puts out roughly 24 million BTUs per cord — one of the highest of any wood available in this region.
Burn time: Dense grain means it burns slow and steady. You're not constantly feeding the fire.
Low smoke: Properly seasoned red oak is clean-burning. Less smoke in the house, less residue in the flue.
Coals: It holds a coal bed well, which matters for fireplaces and especially for pizza ovens and outdoor fire pits where sustained heat is the point.
If you're running a wood-burning fireplace, an outdoor fire pit, or a pizza oven in Malibu, red oak is the practical choice. It's not the cheapest wood on the market — and it shouldn't be. You're getting performance.
Locally Sourced, No Middleman
Every cord I deliver comes from oak I personally cut and split from the Santa Monica Mountains and Los Padres National Forest. No warehouse, no reseller, no mystery wood from out of state. I've been doing this for over 25 years. I know what good oak looks like, I know how it's cut, and I know how it should be split.
When you order from Firewood Guys, you're dealing directly with the person who put the axe to the wood. That matters — not just for quality, but for accountability. If something's off, you call me and I handle it.

What Two Full Cords Looks Like
Two full cords is 256 cubic feet of split wood. For a Malibu home with a single fireplace used through the fall and winter season — say three or four fires a week — two cords will carry you comfortably through the whole season, and likely into spring.
If you burn more aggressively or run multiple fireplaces, plan for an additional cord. Better to have it than to run short in January.
Pricing for red oak in Los Angeles County starts at $220.50 per cord on sale. Free delivery in most areas we service — some locations may have a small delivery fee shown at checkout.
