Independent Loggers

Independent loggers are ideal for smaller parcels (1–10 acres) that larger operations pass on. They handle harvesting directly and often work with local mills.

Randy Elliott Logging, Inc. is a logging contractor based in Stantonville, Tennessee, family-owned, with over 30 years in the business. They work pine timber and take on clear cutting, select cutting, pine thinning, and replanting after harvest. They serve McNairy County. They say "you'll never have to worry about damage to your property or getting a fair price," and on payment they'll "pay by percentage during timber harvesting or even pay upfront before timber is harvested," so you can choose how you get paid. They hold a certified master logger credential and say they're licensed and insured. They offer free estimates. They'll take on forests of 10 acres or more, stated plainly on their site. This fits a landowner in the Stantonville, McNairy County area with a pine stand of 10 acres or up, who wants a long-tenured family outfit and a say in how the timber payment is structured.

Greg Hooper Logging is a timber buying, logging, and forestry consulting business based in Jackson, Tennessee. Greg buys timber and timberland, logs hardwood and pine of all sizes and grades, and also works as a forestry consultant. He takes on hardwood and pine jobs with a stated minimum tract size of 10 acres. When he buys timber, he can meet with you in person or evaluate the timber himself at no charge, and he gives landowners different payment options: paid in full before harvesting starts, or a percentage of the sale. He says he "purchases on a paid price in full before harvesting begins or on a percentage of the sale basis." Greg Hooper Logging carries workers compensation and general liability insurance, and all equipment is insured too. Greg is a Master Logger through the Tennessee Forestry Association. The business serves Madison County and describes its area as "serving all of West TN and surrounding areas." Greg started working for his father's logging company in 1985 and founded his own business in 1991, so he's been running it for decades. The work includes timber buying, timber marketing, logging services, and forest management, with attention to environmentally sensitive harvesting techniques. This fits a landowner with at least 10 acres of hardwood or pine in West Tennessee who wants a single business to handle buying, logging, and marketing the timber together, rather than hiring separate people for each step.

Bells, TN

Andy Norris Logging LLC is a timber buying and logging business in Bells, Tennessee. They buy standing timber and work throughout West Tennessee. Andy Norris Logging LLC's name has been on the business since 1992, and the Norris family has been in timber in the area since the 1850s, "a family legacy of five generations." They describe themselves among the "timber dealers in the marketplace," which they say gives them an edge on price. If you reach out, the process starts simple: they come out to survey your property and tell you the cash potential of your standing timber before anything moves forward. No tree species or tract size are named, so landowners with any size or type of woodlot in their area may want to just call and ask. This fits a West Tennessee landowner who wants to deal with a family name that's been doing this a long time, and who wants a straightforward call and survey before any commitment.

Questions landowners ask

How many independent loggers are there in Tennessee?

78 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Tennessee Forestry Association accredited forester directory, covering 47 counties between them.

How do I choose between them?

Start local and get more than one. A business based in your county knows the mills and the ground; one registered for all one hundred counties may be three hours away. Every listing here shows how far its office is from the county you are looking at, so "will travel" is never mistaken for "is local". TimberClear has not vetted, verified or endorsed anybody on this site.
