Kiln dryingFinish surfacing (to any thickness)Straight Line Ripping One EdgeMixed TruckloadsShrink Wrapping (heavy duty)+1 more

East Perry Lumber Co. is a sawmill in Frohna, Missouri. They buy standing timber and logs, run their own logging crews, and mill the hardwood themselves. They've been at it since 1945, when Marvin F. Petzoldt founded the company as a small portable mill making railroad ties and barn lumber. If you've got hardwood timber to sell, they want 10 or more acres before they'll come look. They work in hardwood only. Their foresters are degreed, and their logging crews trained through the Missouri Forest Products Association Professional Timber Harvester Program, with a combined 70 years of experience between them. They say every landowner has different goals, whether that's wildlife management, long or short term financial planning, or converting land use, and they'll meet with you to talk through how a harvest fits those goals. They pull raw material from a 100 mile radius, and they're also buying already-harvested hardwood logs out of Southeast Missouri, Southern Illinois, Western Kentucky, and Western Tennessee. On the milling side they do kiln drying, finish surfacing to any thickness, straight line ripping, mixed truckloads, heavy duty shrink wrapping, export prep, and container loading, so they're set up for buyers beyond just the local market. This fits a landowner with a real tract of hardwood, at least 10 acres, who wants a mill that also buys standing timber and runs its own harvest, rather than a broker who hires it out.

How much is my timber worth in Perry 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 Perry 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.

What is timber worth in Perry County?

No price series is published for Perry County on its own. Missouri's latest published stumpage figures (Missouri Department of Conservation, April–June 2026) put white oak sawlogs at $425 per thousand board feet. What your own timber brings depends on the species, the size and amount of it, and how far it is from a mill. A timber cruise by a forester settles it.
