Hershberger Logging is a logging and timber buying business based in Oklahoma. It serves Pawnee County in Oklahoma, along with Nowata, Washington, Ottawa, and Craig Counties in Oklahoma, and Montgomery, Labette, and Cherokee Counties in Kansas. The kind of ground they're set up for is acreage with standing timber, especially land near a river or creek bottom. The work covers select cut, clear cut, and brush piling, and they buy both hardwoods and softwoods. A job starts with a free on site estimate, where someone comes out to look at your timber and give you a quote. From there you're offered flexible buying options, so you can choose the approach that fits your situation. They say "we pile the brush," which matters if you want the land to stay walkable and lower the fire risk once the trucks are gone. This is a family owned business now in its second generation, with 12 years of hands on experience. This fits a landowner in Pawnee County, or one of the other counties served, who has timber near a creek or river bottom and wants a buyer that takes a mix of hardwoods and softwoods and leaves the brush piled rather than scattered across the property.

How much is my timber worth in Pawnee 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 Pawnee 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.
