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.

Thompson Logging Inc is a logging company and sawmill based in Randolph, Utah. It works in logging, lumber, and by-product services, taking a job "from forest to finished product." The company is family-owned, founded by Olen and Dixie Thompson, and it says it has served the logging industry for over 65 years. Sheldon Thompson and family now run it, carrying on the methods his father started. The business lists Rich County as an area it serves, with its yard and mailing address in Randolph. It describes itself as committed to sustainable forestry and responsible logging, and says it holds to "the highest safety standards." Beyond logging and lumber, it also does by-product work, so landowners with timber to clear can ask about more than just the logs themselves. This is a smaller, family-run outfit with decades behind it, better suited to a landowner in or near Rich County who wants to deal with the same family that has run the mill and the logging crew for a long time, rather than a larger firm working across many states.

Questions landowners ask
How many independent loggers are there in Utah?
12 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Utah forestry register, covering 8 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.
