H&H Contracting LLC is a logging contractor based in Dallas, Oregon, run as a family business. They work on logging and timber management, plus land clearing, forestry mulching, orchard and tree removal, road building, fire mitigation, and brush mowing with mower decks. On the logging side they handle thinning, view clearing, clear cutting, timber management planning, and tree marking. They describe their logging work as meant to "improve forest health, maximize timber value, and open up your land for future use," which covers both a straight timber sale and clearing land for other use afterward. They say they're "Fully Licensed & Insured" and note 30+ years of experience doing this work in Oregon. They serve Polk County, and their site lists Dallas, Salem, Monmouth, Independence, Rickreall, Falls City, Corvallis, Albany, Silverton, and McMinnville as areas they work in. H&H states a minimum of 10 acres, mentioning "logging 10 acres" as part of the range of jobs they'll take on, alongside smaller brush-clearing and site-prep work. This fits a landowner who wants one contractor to both log the timber and handle what comes after, clearing brush, building a road, or prepping the land for a barn or pasture, rather than hiring separate people for each step.

How much is my timber worth in Polk 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 Polk 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.
