Grade Timber

About Grade Timber

Grade Timber is a timber buyer and logging contractor based in Springfield, Illinois. They buy and harvest black walnut and white oak, including walnut veneer grades, and also do logging, excavating, land clearing, and drone mapping. Here's how a sale works: they come out for a free site visit and assessment, give you a quote based on market rates and timber quality, and once you approve, their crew handles the selective logging with skidders and dozers. They say they'll "handle the assessment, logging, and sale process from start to finish," and that payment comes "promptly after harvest and site restoration." They name Jackson, Union, Pike, Adams, Randolph, and Alexander counties as where they operate, and also mention serving Jefferson County. They describe themselves as a "Certified Logger" with "decades of experience," though no founding year is given. There's no stated minimum acreage, but the smallest job they describe is a 15-acre plot that their logging crew cleared, so that gives a sense of the scale they're set up for. This fits a landowner with walnut or white oak worth grading and selling, who wants one outfit to run the whole job, from the first site visit through logging to cleanup, rather than coordinating separate contractors.
