Independent Loggers

Independent loggers are ideal for smaller parcels (1–10 acres) that larger operations pass on. They handle harvesting directly and often work with local mills.

Select CutClear CutBrush Piling

Hershberger Logging is a logging and timber buying business based in Kansas. If you own acreage of standing timber, "especially near a river or creek bottom," they say they can help with your logging needs. They offer select cut for thinning out mature trees, clear cut for a full harvest or land clearing, and brush piling, so you're not left with debris piles once the job is done. They buy hardwoods and softwoods. A sale starts with a free on-site estimate, where they come out to look at your timber and give you a transparent quote, then offer flexible buying options so you can pick the path that works for you. Hershberger Logging covers Nowata, Washington, Ottawa and Craig Counties in Oklahoma, and Montgomery, Labette, and Cherokee Counties in Kansas. It's a family-owned, 2nd-generation operation with 12 years of hands-on experience. They point out that "we pile the brush," which keeps the ground accessible and cuts down on fire hazard after the trucks pull out. This fits a landowner in one of those counties, especially near a river or creek bottom, who wants both select and clear cut options with cleanup built in rather than a cut-and-run job.

Questions landowners ask

How many independent loggers are there in Kansas?

14 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Kansas forestry register, covering 10 counties between them.

How do I choose between them?

Start local and get more than one. A business based in your county knows the mills and the ground; one registered for all one hundred counties may be three hours away. Every listing here shows how far its office is from the county you are looking at, so "will travel" is never mistaken for "is local". TimberClear has not vetted, verified or endorsed anybody on this site.
