wood pile

Logs awaiting burning

A wood pile is a stack of cut firewood or lumber, typically stored outdoors for drying or future use.

The term often appears as one word: woodpile.

We need to restock the wood pile before winter.

A wood pile near a house suggests preparation for cold weather or a wood-burning stove.
