Maine Custom Woodlands is a timber harvesting and forest management company in Durham, Maine. They've been in business since 1993, working across Southern, Central, and Midcoast Maine, including Androscoggin County. They handle the whole job in-house, from the first lot walk to final cleanup. A licensed forester walks your property, talks over your goals, and puts together a harvest plan and proposal. If you go ahead, they flag the property lines themselves, so you don't need to hire a surveyor. Their crew then runs the harvest, which can be improvement thinning, a shelterwood or diameter limit harvest, or a clear cut, depending on what fits your woodlot. Species they mention working with include fir, spruce, cedar, and hemlock. Afterward, their own excavation crew comes back to smooth out the trails and landing. They also offer forestry mowing, grinding, and excavation work like driveways, ponds, and septic systems as separate services. They say they work with the Maine Natural Areas Program to check for endangered species or sensitive habitat before cutting. They ask for at least 20 wooded acres to take on a timber harvesting project. One landowner they worked with, in Woodstock, had about 50 acres and said the crew "always responded quickly to questions" and sent "detailed information about the trees' processing each week." This fits a landowner with a decent-sized wooded lot in Southern, Central, or Midcoast Maine who wants one company to handle the cutting, the paperwork, and the cleanup without bringing in outside contractors.

Dimension Lumber is a sawmill and lumber yard in Livermore Falls, Maine, running since 1998. They cut logs, plane wood, and sell lumber straight from their yard on Jug Hill Road. Their sawmill works mostly with Hemlock, cutting logs from 8 feet to 26 feet long. If you've got logs from your own land, they'll custom saw them to your order. If you don't, they can saw from their own inventory or just sell you lumber off the shelf. Hemlock from their mill gets used for trailer floors, barns, bridge materials, sheds, and outbuildings. They serve the Livermore Falls area in Androscoggin County. There's no acreage minimum stated, and no mention of them buying standing timber or doing logging work themselves. This is a mill you bring logs to, or buy finished lumber from, not a company that comes out and handles a timber sale on your land. They call themselves a "family-oriented business" and say you'll "treat you like family" when you visit. They also offer free quotes on material lists. This one suits a landowner who already has logs cut, or who wants hemlock lumber for a building project, rather than someone looking for help selling standing timber off their acres.

Kimball & Sons Logging is a logging business in Poland, Maine, run by Randy Kimball, whose father started it in 1989. They do cut to length timber harvesting, where the tree is cut and processed right in the woods and the brush is left behind rather than chipped, to help protect the trail the wood gets hauled out on. They also do forestry mulching, trail clearing, lot clearing, storm damage clean up, invasive species removal, under brush removal and post harvest clean up. They take on selective harvests of 10 or more acres. Their crew is Master Logger Certified and they say they are fully insured and accredited. On a job, they say they personally identify each species and assess the quality and value of every tree that comes to the landing before it goes out. They serve Androscoggin, Cumberland, Oxford, and Sagadahoc Counties in central and southern Maine. Kimball & Sons Logging has been doing this since 1989, when Randy's father started the company with, as Randy puts it, "nothing more than a chainsaw and a cable skidder." Randy became an equal partner in 2014 and the operation is now fully mechanized. This fact sheet doesn't mean they'd turn down a smaller job. They arencompany in Poland, Maine. If It's a family-run outfitle wot. This fits best for a landowner with 10 or more acres who wants a selective harvest done with care for the soil and trail, rather than a quick clear cut, and who also might have other work like storm clean up or invasive brush to deal with.

How much is my timber worth in Androscoggin County?

Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.

Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Androscoggin County?

You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.
