RBM Lumber Inc.

About RBM Lumber Inc.

RBM Lumber Inc. is a sawmill and logging business in Columbia Falls, Montana. They've been at it since 1980, started by a family that's now in its third generation of running the place. They cut timber themselves and mill it into lumber, serving Flathead County and the wider Northwest Montana area. The species they work with include Douglas fir, fir, larch, hemlock, cedar, spruce, and Grand fir. Their approach leans toward "selective harvesting" rather than clear-cutting: they use smaller, less expensive logging equipment and hand saw each tree with a chainsaw, which they say keeps them "more in touch with the forest" and helps with decisions about what to take and what to leave. They also take in salvage timber, trees that are fire-killed, blown down, or beetle-killed. Once logs come in, they mill them into beams, rough lumber, siding, decking, flooring, trim, and paneling, and they run a door shop on site making solid wood doors from the lumber they cut. Nothing stated here gives a minimum tract size for timber sale work. This looks like a fit for a landowner in Flathead County or nearby who wants selective logging rather than a clear-cut, and who likes the idea of the logger and the mill being the same outfit.
