If you’ve ever wanted just enough firewood for cozy fires without overfilling your yard or garage, the 1/4 face cord of firewood is the perfect fit. It’s convenient, cleanly stacked, and ready for delivery right to your home anywhere in the Chicagoland area.
Buying an entire cord of wood can be excessive and expensive. Purchasing a quarter-face-cord firewood bundle is much more practical. The Jack Stack is the best fit for most customers. You get all the perks of Lumberjacks’ high-quality kiln-dried wood in a manageable size that fits your space and lifestyle. On top of that, we deliver.
A 1/4 face cord of firewood is one-quarter of a face cord. Lumberjacks’ Jack Stack measures 4 ft high × 2 ft wide × 16 inches deep when stacked.
A Jack Stack is a quarter face cord, not a quarter of a full cord. It’s a great option if you only use your fireplace occasionally or just want enough wood to get through a few chilly nights.
Why Choose the Jack Stack From Lumberjacks?
Lumberjacks has earned a reputation across Chicagoland for providing premium kiln-dried firewood that lights easily and burns cleanly. The Jack Stack gives you all of those perks in a convenient package. Here are some other benefits of buying a Jack Stack 1/4 face cord of firewood:
1. Easy to Store
Ordering an entire cord of firewood at once might sound like a convenient way to save money and simplify firewood delivery. But do you really have enough room to store all of it? If not, opting for a 1/4 face cord of firewood like the Jack Stack is the smart choice. It will fit along your garage wall, on a patio, or beside a shed.
Since our wood is kiln-dried, you don’t have to worry about pests or rot. It’s safe to store inside or in your garage. When you’re ready to have a roaring fire, it will be dry and ready to go.
2. Premium Quality
All firewood from Lumberjacks is kiln-dried, which means it burns hotter, cleaner, and safer than air-dried or “green” wood. You get a consistent flame with minimal smoke, and you deal with zero pests. You can also avoid that annoying popping and crackling that occurs when you try to light wood with too much residual moisture.
Lumberjacks offers only locally sourced premium hardwoods, including oak, cherry, and hickory.
3. Convenient Delivery
When you order the Jack Stack, your wood is stacked neatly right where you want it. Our team can deliver your quarter-face-cord Jack Stack to your door, driveway, deck, or porch. You don’t have to lift a single log.
Opting for delivery means you can skip the hassle of driving to a supplier, loading your vehicle, and unloading your wood at your home. That’s what we call service.
4. Transparent Pricing
Each Jack Stack is sold at a clear, flat rate. We try to keep prices low and consistent all year round. Here are our current rates:
Mixed Hardwood: $199
Oak: $249
Cherry: $249
Hickory: $249
There are no hidden fees or surprise charges. You can get premium firewood at a fair price.
5. Perfect for Occasional Fires
The Jack Stack is a quarter face cord of kiln-dried firewood for customers who want a smaller order. If you like to have occasional fires, compare its stacked dimensions with your available storage space.
If you think you’ll need a larger supply of wood, we can help with that. You can order multiple Jack Stacks or ask about our bulk purchase options.
How the Jack Stack Compares to Other Firewood Sizes
If you’re not sure how much wood you need, here’s a quick comparison:
Jack Stack: ¼ face cord, with delivery and stacking included.
Ordinary ¼ face cord: the same stated quantity, available for pickup on our firewood page.
½ face cord and full face cord: larger quantities; confirm delivery and stacking options when ordering.
The Jack Stack is equivalent to a 1/4 face cord of wood. It’s delivered straight to your home and includes only premium hardwoods like oak, hickory, and cherry. You can pick which type of wood is included in your bundle or opt for a mixed Jack Stack for better value.

Popular Uses for a Jack Stack
A quarter-face-cord Jack Stack order gives you flexibility for multiple uses, such as:
Home fireplaces and wood stoves
Outdoor fire pits and chimneys
Campfire setups for cabins or lake houses
Small commercial fire features for restaurants or patios
If you have a specific use in mind, you can even choose which type of hardwood is included in your bundle. For example, some customers love the smell of cherry, while others prefer the consistency of oak. If you don’t have a preference, go with a mixed Jack Stack.
How Much Heat Can You Expect?
The heat you get from a Jack Stack depends on the wood species and how you build and use your fires.
If you build a few small fires a week, a 1/4 face cord of firewood can last you one to two months. For heavier use or colder weather, you can always reorder online and have another Jack Stack delivered within a few days.
Learning more about wood burning and wood waste can help you determine how many logs you need for your next fire. Remember, kiln-dried wood burns hotter and produces less waste — this is especially important when burning indoors.
