# Firewood in Reno, NV

Firewood in Reno is available from Battle Born Tree Service, which sells a variety of firewood for Reno and nearby areas from its yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East in Carson City, about 43 minutes from central Reno without traffic. Call [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) for availability and pricing.

Reno is a big city where wood is a tiny share of the heating mix. A handful of households rely on it, and many more want it for a fireplace, a stove or a fire pit.

## At a glance

- Yard at 6301 US Highway 50 East, Carson City
- About 298 Reno households heat mainly with wood
- About 33.5 miles and 43 minutes from central Reno without traffic
- Availability and pricing by phone

## A small share of a big city

Reno has about 114,000 households, and about 298 of them, or 0.3%, heat mainly with wood (ACS 2020-2024, table B25040). Washoe County as a whole counts about 2,266 households, 1.1%. For nearly everyone in Reno, then, firewood is for a fireplace, a stove or a fire pit rather than the only heat, and many buyers want a modest amount.

## The drive from Reno

The yard is 33.5 miles from central Reno, about 43 minutes without traffic (a free-flow estimate that does not allow for weather or chain controls). Call [775.232.8243](tel:775.232.8243) for availability and pricing; the office will tell you what is on hand and answer questions about how the wood would get to you.

## Questions to ask before you commit

- What is available now?
- How is it sold?
- Is it ready to burn?
- Can it be moved to my address, and on what terms?
- What is the price for the amount I want?

We do not publish species, quantities, prices or delivery terms online. They come from the office.

## How should I season and stack firewood?

Penn State Extension recommends drying wood to about 20% moisture, which usually takes 6 to 12 months, keeping the stack off the ground on pallets, and covering only the top with a sheet of corrugated metal rather than wrapping it in a tarp. Even in a dry climate, a stack sitting in November snow or October rain needs air flow around it.

## Buying wood and moving wood

The Don't Move Firewood campaign advises buying firewood close to where you will burn it, and notes that Nevada prohibits uncertified firewood from quarantined areas out of state. Keeping your purchase in Northern Nevada follows that advice.

## Reno burn rules and your own fireplace

Whether you may burn on a given day depends on local air-quality rules and fire conditions, and those are set by the agencies, not by us. Check with Washoe County and your fire district before you light a fire. We sell the wood. They decide when it can be burned.
