Timber Buyers, Loggers & Mills in Dodge County (1)
This buyer is based in Dodge County. Being close matters: hauling is one of the biggest costs taken out of your check.
Nebraska Lumber Mill, LLC is a sawmill in Fremont, Nebraska. It is not a buyer of standing timber and does not describe logging or forestry work, so this is not a stop for selling trees off your land. It is a place to buy lumber. What it sells is dimensional lumber, pallet stock, studs and finger joint studs, fencing, bulk plywood and OSB, dunnage lumber, pressure treated lumber, and ground contact lumber. On the service side it offers delivery by 53ft or 24ft flatbed, onsite pickup, scrap removal, and custom or bulk cutting such as rip cut, resaw cut, cross cut, and miter cut. It says its aim is to offer "fair market lumber products to businesses, individuals, and to assist in the growth of our city and state communities." It serves Dodge County and turns up in the register under Antelope County. There is no minimum job size stated, and no stated policy on tract size, since this is a lumber yard rather than a timber buyer. It was established in 2024. This fits a landowner, contractor, or builder who needs cut lumber, pallet stock, or fencing material delivered or picked up in the Fremont area, not someone looking to sell standing timber or have a tract logged.

How much is my timber worth in Dodge 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.
What stumpage value means →Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Dodge 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.
Do I need a forestry consultant? →What is timber worth in Dodge County?
No price series is published for Dodge County on its own. Nebraska'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.
