Two different kinds of business turn up on those pages, and they behave differently on a map. Loggers, sawmills and timber buyers stay close to home, because hauling logs is expensive and every mile comes out of what you get paid. If you are near a mill, that usually works in your favor. Consulting foresters travel much further. Plenty of them are registered to work all 100 counties, so do not be surprised to see the same names turning up a long way from where they are based.
That difference is worth knowing before you call anyone. A buyer is trying to buy your timber as cheaply as they can, which is their job. A consulting forester works for you: they measure what is standing, tell you what it should fetch, and can run a competitive sale so buyers bid against each other. How to decide whether you need one
