About May Brothers Lumber Co.

May Brothers Lumber Co. buys standing timber and runs a sawmill in Kimper, Kentucky. They've been in the hardwood lumber business for over 100 years, fourth generation now running it. They buy hardwood and softwood timber, and at the mill they produce plain sawn lumber, pallet cants, and railroad crossties. On the buying side they handle pulpwood, poplar peelers, veneer, quarter logs, white oak staves, and sawlogs, working to get the tree's full value across whatever markets fit. Their own words on the job: "Standing timber is an asset," and they say they aim to respect that "during and after the harvest." They're listed with the Kentucky Forest Industries Association and the Kentucky Master Logger Program. Their timber procurement reaches eastern Kentucky, southwestern West Virginia, and parts of southwestern Virginia's coal field area, and for county listings here they're tied to Pike County. This fits a landowner in that eastern Kentucky and tri-state corner who wants a buyer that also mills the wood itself, rather than just brokering it to someone else.
