Timber Buyers & Forestry Professionals in Redmond, OR

Quicksilver Contracting Co is a forest contracting company based in Bend, Oregon, with a processing yard in La Pine. It's been in business since 1988. The company does logging, chipping, thinning, mowing, slash piling, hazardous fuels reduction, reforestation, and forest health restoration stewardship contracts. Work ranges from mechanical harvesting and hand crew labor to road maintenance, understory removal, and streambank restoration. Quicksilver takes on large, multi-year stewardship and restoration contracts, typically running 3 to 10 years, for both public and private land managers. These projects can mean mechanical felling, mastication, piling, and brush mowing, alongside hand crew work like thinning and planting. The company processes harvested timber into sawlogs, clean chips, chip logs, pole materials, and biomass, and also sells wood products like posts, poles, and deck railings. Its harvesting territory covers eastside forests in Northern California, Oregon, and Washington, with Deschutes County named as a county it serves. No stated minimum acreage appears, but the scale of work described points toward large tracts: stewardship contracts have covered "over 40,000 acres" to date. The company describes its approach as "low-impact approaches that make the most of all woody material and leave a more fire-resistant forest behind." This fits a landowner with a sizable, complex forest property needing multi-year restoration or fuels work done at scale, not someone with a small woodlot looking for a single timber sale.
