Elm River Sawmill

About Elm River Sawmill

Elm River Sawmill is a sawmill in Cisne, Illinois. It builds access mats rather than buying standing timber or doing logging work for a landowner. The mats are made from Oak and Mixed Hardwood, and from grade 2 Southern Yellow Pine for the lighter line. The product list includes crane and bridge mats, 8 inch timber mats, 3-ply bolted hardwood mats, and 3-ply bolted pine mats. These are built for roads and work areas: pipeline and transmission line access roads, timber harvest roads and worksites, right-of-ways, solar and wind construction areas, and heavy equipment areas. If you need a stable road or pad across wet ground or unsteady soil during a logging job or other site work, this is the kind of outfit that supplies that. They say there is "no minimum order quantity at this time" and that they serve orders "small or big." Shipping covers the lower 48 states, and the mill sits close to a major interstate junction in southern Illinois. They list Wayne County as a county served. They do not offer rental, leasing, or buyback of mats at this time. This fits a landowner who already has a logger or contractor lined up and needs mats laid down for the job, not someone looking for help selling or marketing standing timber.
