J.H. Knighton Lumber Co., Inc. is a family-run sawmill in Ruther Glen, Virginia. It makes pine and hardwood lumber and sells rough-cut green lumber. The business has been family owned and operated since 1969. Besides the mill, it buys standing timber, does logging, and chips whole trees. Its work covers hardwood and pine clear-cutting, pine plantation thinnings, and whole-tree chipping. It also gives timber value estimates. The counties it names are Caroline, Hanover, King and Queen, King William, and Spotsylvania. The minimum tract is 20 acres, stated plainly on its own pages: "If you own, or know someone who owns, 20 acres or more, please give us a call." A sale starts with a call.

J.H. Fitzgerald, Jr. Logging, Inc. is a logging company at 266 Big Rock Road in Tyro, Virginia. It has been around since 2003 and was incorporated in 2007. They cut pine and hardwood by thinning or clearcut, and they chip smaller material and grind stump piles. They name Central Virginia as their area and list Nelson County among the places they work. Their harvest options include clearcut, thinning, timber stand improvement, select cut, shelterwood, and seed tree. They also do mapping and acreage, flag property lines and mark buffers, build and maintain roads, install or upgrade entrances, and help with wildlife work and cost-share programs. They have two foresters on staff, and they say they pay the same price whether or not you use a consultant. Selling works one of two ways. In a lump sum sale, they cruise the timber, which means measuring the trees on the ground, and then price it. With pay-as-cut, they give you a price for each product and pay you weekly as loads reach the mill. Each load is tracked on a ticket system so none go unpaid. As they put it, "We only buy timber using written contracts." Contracts usually run 12 to 24 months, and the terms are settled with you before you sign. They say they are fully insured. This suits a landowner with pine or hardwood who wants several harvest methods to choose from, a written contract, and a clear weekly payment record. From valogging.com, read 17 October 2026.

Cardinal's Logging is a logging and timber-buying business based in Unionville, Virginia. It buys standing timber in the central Virginia area, where it has worked for 30 years. Goochland is named as a county it serves. The work includes standing timber harvesting, timber clearing, timber hauling, reforestation and habitat restoration. Its trained loggers aim for a "low impact harvest," keeping the site clean and orderly and guarding against soil erosion. When the cutting is done, the crews smooth out log and skid roads and reseed them with site-appropriate grasses where needed. A sale starts with a site visit, since each stand is different. The owner and the business then work out a complete harvest plan before any trees are cut. The business prefers to cut trees at least 18 to 20 inches in diameter, depending on the species, and it does not push owners to cut trees they do not think are ready. It suits a landowner with mature timber who wants a plan agreed on before any cutting starts and wants the woods left in reasonable shape afterward. From cardinal-logging.com, read 17 October 2026.

It also produces firewood, which it describes as "high quality firewood," and it offers land clearing and excavation along with complete tree care. If you have trees on your land that you want to sell while they are still standing, buying standing timber is the work the business leads with. Its firewood side means it also cuts and prepares wood for fuel. The same firm handles clearing and excavation for a site, and tree care for trees that need attention. The business keeps listed hours every day of the week, from 9 am to 5 pm. Its website invites landowners to "see us in person," so you can talk through your land face to face before you decide anything. This suits a landowner in or near Front Royal who has standing timber to sell and may also want clearing, excavation or tree work done by the same local firm.

Questions landowners ask

How many timber buyers are there in Virginia?

38 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Virginia Department of Forestry private forestry service provider directory, covering 78 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.
