Garland Lumber Co. Inc. is a logging and forestry business based in Center Conway, New Hampshire, with offices in North Conway. The family has been at this since 1962, and the company itself was set up in 1975 as a full-time operation. It's still run by the Garland family today. They handle timber harvesting, forest management plans, timber appraisals and inventories, tree farm inspections, land clearing, and help with woodland protection. They have a licensed professional forester on staff, Karla Allen, who is also an American Tree Farm Inspector and a Technical Service Provider. She works alongside seven logging crews, so they can "mix and match" equipment and people to fit your land and what you're trying to do with it. They say they manage about 2,000 acres for sustainable forestry on an ongoing basis. Their own words: "We look at each client and their property individually and try to match their personal objectives to their land." Whether you want income now, a long-term plan, wildlife habitat, or just to keep the woods healthy, that seems to be how they start the conversation. They work in Carroll County and describe their service area as covering New Hampshire, Maine, Massachusetts, and Vermont. They also run their own trucking side, Garland Transportation, so wood moves off your land without you having to arrange a separate hauler. This fits a landowner who wants a forester involved in the harvest decision itself, not just a logger showing up with a crew, and who doesn't mind a company with some scale and history behind it.

Tamworth, NH
scale measurement and grade determinationcompetitive pricing for all productstimely payment

Timber east Tamworth is a log buyer with a yard at 194 Ossipee Mtn Hwy in Tamworth, New Hampshire. Timber East LLC, as the business calls itself, is "a broker of all species and grades of logs produced from the forest," and this Tamworth yard is one of four it runs in the state. They take hardwoods and softwoods both. On the hardwood side they work with northern red oak, white ash, maple, and birch, and say they "specialize in New Hampshire sourced northern red oak." On the softwood side they handle eastern hemlock, eastern white pine, and red spruce, along with hardwood and softwood pulpwood. For a landowner, that means a mixed woodlot with several species in it is the kind of load they're set up to take. What they offer once logs come in is straightforward: scale measurement and grade determination, competitive pricing, and timely payment. The yard is reached through Corey Eastman at the Tamworth location, and the business lists Carroll County as served from there, with its other yards covering other parts of New Hampshire. This fits a landowner who already has logs cut or trucked and is looking for a buyer to scale, grade, and pay for a mixed hardwood and softwood load, rather than someone who needs a crew to come in and do the cutting.

tree removallot clearingland clearingtimber harvesting

Varney Sons Logging works out of Effingham, New Hampshire, doing tree removal, lot clearing, land clearing, and timber harvesting. They have been in the tree removal business for "over 30 years." Here is how they work: you call or email, and they come out to your property to look at your trees and talk through what they can do. If you have enough trees, they set up a date to cut and remove them. They prefer pine but will take on "all types of trees." One thing worth knowing: they do not clean up branches themselves, though they can point you to someone who will. There is no set minimum acreage. Instead, they offer free tree removal once you have 20 or more trees to take down, and you can even combine trees with a neighbor to reach that number. Smaller jobs get a free estimate. They describe handling tricky spots too, tree removal "in tight places around houses, sheds, swingsets, pools, and more." They say they are a "fully insured, state certified New Hampshire company" and operate year round across the state of New Hampshire and northern Massachusetts, with Carroll County among the areas they serve. This fits a landowner with a smaller lot or a scattering of trees rather than a large standing timber tract, someone more interested in clearing land than negotiating a stumpage sale on a big parcel.

Questions landowners ask

How many timber buyers and foresters serve Carroll County?

10 businesses are listed for Carroll County: 1 consulting forester and 9 buyers, loggers and mills. 10 of them have offices in the county.

How much is my timber worth in Carroll 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 Carroll 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 Carroll County?

No price series is published for Carroll County on its own. New Hampshire's latest published stumpage figures (New Hampshire Department of Revenue Administration, April–September 2026) put oak at $200–$400 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.
