About Kiker Resource Management, LLC
Kiker Resource Management, LLC is a forestry consulting firm in Wadesboro, South Carolina. It starts every job by learning what the landowner wants. For over twenty-eight years it has handled timber sales, forest and land management, reforestation, prescribed burning, wildlife management consulting, mapping, forest certification and hunting leases, along with real estate brokerage in North and South Carolina. Clearcuts are usually sold lump-sum on a sealed bid, with full payment from the buyer when the contract or timber deed is signed. Thinnings are usually negotiated, with the buyer advancing 30% to 50% of the expected harvest income. The firm supervises the logging and enforces the terms. Its sales are conducted to "receive the highest possible price for the timber offered as part of the sale." The work covers pine and hardwood stands. For pine, it recommends planting improved seedlings, and most cost share programs cap assistance at 100 acres per landowner per year. Other services include timber appraisal, harvesting plans, GPS mapping, tree farm inspections, trespass appraisals and investment and tax counseling. Counties served include Abbeville, Aiken, Greenville, Richland, Spartanburg and York. Stated credentials are Forest Stewardship Council and American Tree Farm System, with memberships in the SC Forestry Association, the Association of Consulting Foresters and the Society of American Foresters. It suits owners who want one firm to handle the sale, the logging oversight, the replanting and, if they choose, the land sale itself. From kikerforestry.com, read 16 October 2026.
