About Calumet Harbor Lumber Company

Calumet Harbor Lumber Company is a mill and lumber wholesaler in Chicago, Illinois, at 13651 S. Buffalo Ave., in Cook County. It describes itself as a distributor, wholesaler and manufacturer, and it specializes in "hard-to-find structural grades and treatments." The mill saws and finishes wood to order. Its listed work includes bandsawing and resawing, crosscutting, ripping, surfacing, shaping, shiplapping, drilling, millwork, firetreating and heat treating. It also offers hand hewn custom milling and radio frequency drying. The species it works with include red oak, white oak, walnut, cherry, ash, Western red cedar, redwood, Douglas fir, Hem fir and southern yellow pine. It skids logs to its mill and sells FSC certified hardwood. Orders can be delivered direct from the forest to the customer's site, and smaller quantities are available on request. The Beckman family runs the business, now in its fourth generation. A mill was built in Chicago in the early 1960s, and the company was renamed Calumet Harbor Lumber & Supply Co around that time. It suits a landowner who already has oak, walnut or cherry logs cut and wants them sawn, dried or hewn into finished timbers, rather than one looking for a buyer to take standing timber off the land.
