Big Red Sawmill & Firewood

About Big Red Sawmill & Firewood

Big Red Sawmill & Firewood is a sawmill near Palmyra, Nebraska. It's a family-owned operation, "situated on 56 acres south of Palmyra, Nebraska," and it serves Otoe county. This isn't a business that buys standing timber or walks your woods with you. It's set up for custom work on logs you already have down, or firewood on your own site. Services are custom log sawing, custom kiln drying, custom planing, and custom firewood processing, with firewood processing done at your location. The mill handles logs up to 36 inches across and 34 feet long, and it works in a wide range of species including black walnut, cherry, white oak, red oak, hickory, maple, cedar, and more, calling itself "the foremost source of quality rough-cut lumber, milling and kiln-drying in eastern Nebraska." There's no stated minimum acreage or tract size for this business. This suits a landowner who already has logs or trees down, or standing timber they plan to fell themselves, and wants someone to saw, dry, or plane that wood into usable lumber, or to process it into firewood on site, rather than someone to come appraise or purchase standing timber.
