Mill on Wheels
About Mill on Wheels
Mill on Wheels is a mobile sawmill in Ellenboro, in the foothills of Western North Carolina. Instead of hauling your logs to a mill, the mill comes to your land. "we bring the saw mill to YOU," and the lumber is stacked on your site. Chris and Reina Carroll own and run the business, which has been milling for over 10 years. Chris mills to custom dimensions and species, and the work includes live edge lumber, true dimensional lumber and bookmatched lumber. The mill handles oak, cedar and pine. Logs can be up to 32 inches across and 18 1/2 feet long. The boards are stacked with narrow wood strips between them for airflow, and Chris explains how to keep them from molding before you use them. Mill jobs are booked by the half day or full day. The price depends on travel, the number of logs and any equipment needed, so you talk with Chris before getting a quote. The business also does clearing and site prep, debris hauling and cleanup, and project consulting. Chris Carroll, the owner operator, has earned Woodmizer's Million Boardfoot designation and has more than 28 years in home construction, woodworking and sawmill work. The stated service areas are Western NC, the Piedmont area of NC, Upstate SC and Eastern TN. Named towns include Charlotte, Fort Mill, Hickory, Morganton, Greenville SC and Simpsonville SC. For larger jobs, the business will travel farther. Mill on Wheels suits a landowner who already has logs on the ground and wants them turned into lumber or live edge pieces without hauling them away. It is a good fit for someone who wants to keep the wood from their own trees for building or woodworking, not for a landowner looking to sell standing timber.
