DendroTechnology is a sawmill and timber buyer in Corrales, New Mexico. They go looking for dead, down, and unwanted trees around Corrales and the Albuquerque area, and they also take logs people bring to them for custom sawing. They work in hardwoods and softwoods both: cherry, apricot and other fruitwoods, walnut, Russian olive, salt cedar, juniper, fir, mulberry, ash, oak, and maple. They don't want cottonwood unless it's a large burl, and they'll only take elm if it's large-diameter and straight. They cut live edge slabs, local hardwood lumber, turning blanks, and will do custom sawing on logs you bring them, down to about 5/16 inch thickness. For tree removals, they charge based on distance, access, how complicated the job is, and whether they're hauling off the slash too. Sometimes removal is free. If you already have a tree service, they say "we can work with them to make sure a valuable log is preserved in the removal process." There's no stated minimum acreage. Their smallest job isn't about land size at all, it's about the trunk itself: they're looking for logs at least 12 inches in diameter and at least 6 feet long, though they say to ask if you've got something unusual that's smaller. They serve Sandoval County. The business grew out of one tree, a sycamore that had to come down on their own property, which they describe this way: "Two years ago when the tree had to come down I said that if the trunk was sound I'd buy a mill and turn it into live edge slab lumber." This fits a landowner with just a few trees worth saving, maybe one special log, who wants it milled into something rather than sold off as a timber harvest. From dendrotsm.com, read 10 October 2026.

How do I choose between them?
Start local and get more than one. A business based in your county knows the mills and the ground; one registered for all one hundred counties may be three hours away. Every listing here shows how far its office is from the county you are looking at, so "will travel" is never mistaken for "is local".
