Walnut Timber Buyers
About Walnut Timber Buyers
Walnut Timber Buyers is a logging contractor and timber buyer based in Beardstown, Illinois. They describe themselves plainly: "WE ARE AN INDUSTRIAL LOGGING COMPANY THAT BUYS BULK TIMBER FROM FARMS AND HUNTING LAND." They buy standing walnut, white oak, red oak, hickory, ash, maple and black oak. Their process starts with marking out which trees on your land are worth the most, then marking property lines, felling the selected trees, grading roads to move the timber to one spot, cleaning up after themselves, and finally finding a buyer, paying you, and hauling the logs off your land. They call this their Select Harvest method. They offer a free appraisal before any of this starts. For a minimum, they aren't looking at acreage at all but at tree count: "At this time we are only considering projects of 20 or more mature trees." Smaller or residential jobs get turned away and pointed toward a local tree service instead. Their reach is wide. From their Beardstown, Illinois base they say they work within a 300-mile radius, covering a large part of Illinois as well as Central and Eastern Missouri. They list themselves as licensed timber buyers, fully insured, and say they've worked with landowners and importers across Illinois and Missouri for the past 30 years. They also work directly with importers, exporting logs from a yard with rail access. This one suits a landowner with a real stand of mature hardwoods, at least 20 trees worth cutting, who wants one outfit to handle the appraisal, the cutting, and the sale together rather than hiring it out in pieces.
