Timber Buyers, Loggers & Mills in Napa County (1)
This buyer is based in Napa County. Being close matters: hauling is one of the biggest costs taken out of your check.
All Bay Mill & Lumber Co is a milling and lumber operation in American Canyon, California. They work on construction projects, not standing timber on your land directly, running a milling facility with resaw, planer, and moulder equipment, along with fabrication work like panel and wall fabrication, crane mats, and custom cutting jobs like corbels and radius plate. They source their lumber, plywood, and oriented strand board directly from mills and say they are able to shift their inventory to "service a multitude of different types of construction projects." They also say they can "source qualified labor to fabricate and construct panels and crane mats" for larger jobs. They list Napa as a county they serve. This fits someone who needs milled lumber, custom cuts, or fabricated wood products for a construction project, rather than a landowner looking to sell standing timber off their acreage.

How much is my timber worth in Napa County?
Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.
What stumpage value means →Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Napa County?
You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.
