They work in a long list of species, including ash, black walnut, cherry, cedar, elm, hickory, locust, maple, red oak, white oak, sycamore, and mahogany among others. Boards come out kiln dried to 7 to 10 percent moisture content and can be cut to custom sizes. Orders go out by ground or common carrier, whether it's one board or a full skid. They say "our truck can be seen in quite a few different states," with regular delivery to parts of the East Coast and shipping to all 50 states.

How much is my timber worth in Snyder 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 Snyder 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.
Do I need a forestry consultant? →What is timber worth in Snyder County?

What your own timber brings depends on the species, the size and amount of it, and how far it is from a mill. A timber cruise by a forester settles it.
