Hardwoods Hawaii Inc is a sawmill in Ocean View, Hawaii, also doing logging. They work with Ohia, including Ohia posts and Ohia poles, and they call what they do "treecycling": taking trees that came down for agricultural or urban development and milling them into lumber instead of letting them go to waste. Their work covers coring, sanding, salvaging, flooring and molding, slabwork, siding and trim, splitting and cladding, portable millwork, kilning, and finish lumber, along with delivery and shipping. If you're an outer island or mainland buyer wanting Ohia product, there's a permitting and testing step tied to the Ohia wilt virus: an inspector samples the wood, it goes to the Department of Agriculture for testing, and once it's tagged it ships out by water or air freight. Lead time on those orders runs 4 to 6 weeks, and restocking fees apply if an order is canceled. They serve Hawaii county. Jeff Anderson, who runs the business, has been milling, logging, and salvaging Hawaii's hardwoods since the company started in 1993. This fits a landowner on the Big Island with Ohia trees down from clearing or storm damage who wants that wood turned into posts, slabs, or finish lumber rather than hauled off or burned.

Questions landowners ask
How many independent loggers are there in Hawaii?
3 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Hawaii forestry register, covering 1 counties between them.
How do I choose between them?
Start local and get more than one. A business based in your county knows the mills and the ground; one registered for all one hundred counties may be three hours away. Every listing here shows how far its office is from the county you are looking at, so "will travel" is never mistaken for "is local". TimberClear has not vetted, verified or endorsed anybody on this site.
