Before you take the first offer
A timber buyer's job is to buy your timber as cheaply as they can. A consulting forester works for you — they measure what's standing, tell you what it's worth, and run a competitive sale, usually for a percentage of the price. That makes their interests line up with yours. 30 of the 37 foresters covering Dinwiddie County offer the full set — appraisal, cruise, and running the sale itself. How to decide whether you need one

Interstate Forest Products is a forestry consulting company in Stantonsburg, Virginia, serving Virginia and North Carolina. Chuck Little founded it in 2011 after sixteen years buying timber for companies such as Georgia-Pacific and Coastal Lumber Company. The firm helps landowners manage and sell their timberland. The work includes management plans, timber cruises and appraisals, contract cruising and mapping, boundary marking, harvest inspections, and GPS and GIS maps. They also prepare timber sale contracts, do loblolly pine thinnings, and reforest after harvest with pine and hardwood. The species they name are loblolly, longleaf, and shortleaf pine, along with hardwoods and red oak. The counties they name are Brunswick, Dinwiddie, Emporia City, Greensville, Mecklenburg, Southampton, and Sussex. A sale starts with a timber cruise to estimate volume. Stumpage prices are applied to that estimate to set a minimum bid, which is not shown before the sale. They recommend a sealed bid sale in most cases. The buyer has 30 days from the sale to do a title search, prepare the timber deed, and close, and the landowner is paid in full at closing. They offer "no cost or obligation" to look at your timber and lay out your options. Chuck is North Carolina Registered Forester #1429, North Carolina ProLogger certified, and a member of the North Carolina Forestry Association. This suits a landowner who wants a written plan, a cruise, or a sealed bid sale handled by a registered forester who has bought timber himself.

It works with private and public landowners across eastern and central Virginia, and its pages name Amelia, Charles City, Caroline, Essex, and King and Queen counties. Frank O. Brooks, Jr. founded it in the mid 1980s, and it has helped landowners for over 40 years. Its services include timber sales, timber valuation, real estate appraisals, real estate sales, long-term forest management, timberland investment analysis, forest taxation, GIS mapping, reforestation, and prescribed burning. The only tree type named on its pages is pine plantation thinnings. In 2024 it handled clear cut and select cut sales on over 1,400 acres. A timber sale can run start to finish. The firm offers a "turn key" sale that begins with the timber appraisal and ends with complete reforestation of the tract. You can also have only certain parts of a sale done. It says it markets a tract to the buyers interested in that particular wood, often from outside the local area. John R. Reid, CF, is a Certified Forester and a Certified General Real Estate Appraiser. Bill Pownall holds a real estate salesperson license from 2018. Staff are certified by the Virginia Department of Forestry to write Forest Stewardship Plans, by the American Forest Foundation to prepare Tree Farm Plans, and by the Natural Resources Conservation Service to prepare Management Plans.

H&H Forest Management, Inc. is a forestry consulting firm in South Hill, Virginia. It also does tree services. If you are selling timber, the work runs in order. First the firm sets your goals, then does a statistically based timber cruise and designs the harvest. It paints or flags the harvest boundaries and the trees to be cut. It drafts a pre-harvest plan covering haul roads, skid trails, logging decks and stream crossings, and it markets your timber to as many as 140+ prospective buyers. It also gives advice on contract terms and on a sale structure meant to limit your tax liability, and it inspects the logging more than once. Timber sale administration is typically a commission on total sale revenue, on a sliding scale. Beyond sales, the firm offers timber cruising and appraisals, forest stewardship plans, forest or wildlife management plans, tree farm certification, pine and hardwood planting, prescribed burning, aerial or ground herbicide work, pre-commercial thinning and GIS mapping. Inventory work can be billed as a fixed price, per hour, per acre or per plot. The credentials stated are certification as a Virginia Department of Forestry preparer of Forest Stewardship Plans, and certified inspectors for the American Tree Farm System. The counties served are Amelia, Brunswick, Charles City, Charlotte, Dinwiddie, Greensville, Halifax, Lunenburg, Mecklenburg, Nottoway, Prince Edward, Prince George, Southampton, Surry and Sussex. The firm's approach is to "fit our services into your box," not the other way round. It suits owners who want one firm involved from the first cruise through the logging, and owners with a single job, since it takes on both long-term management and one-time turn-key projects.

Timber Marketing & Management is a timber consulting firm in Chesterfield, Virginia, with an office on Iron Bridge Road. It works for private landowners who want to sell timber, manage their woods, or sell the land itself. The firm has been at it for over 40 years. The work covers timber sales by bid or open market, timber cruises, forest management, post-harvest services, boundary line maintenance, and land sales. A sale usually starts with a talk about what you want from the property. Next comes field work: inventory, mapping, and appraisal. The firm then markets the timber, takes bids or negotiates, and handles the contracts and payment. It oversees the harvest and, if you want, the replanting. Inventories are careful and often include 100% tallies of sawtimber. From first consultation to reforestation usually takes about two years. Most services are paid by a flat commission, and extra work is charged by the man-day. They serve most of Virginia, from the Eastern Shore to the Blue Ridge Mountains, and further for certain properties. Their rule of thumb is 20 acres or more, since they focus on commercial harvests. They will take on smaller tracts too, depending on several factors. They are clear about one thing: "We do not manage or harvest individual trees/yard trees." They also manage hunting leases on request. This suits a landowner with 20 acres or more who wants a full handoff from cruise to closeout and is comfortable paying on commission.

The counties they serve include Amelia, Chesterfield, Henrico, Halifax, Sussex, Surry and Lancaster, along with others in the listed area. This suits a landowner with hardwood on a tract of under 15 acres in one of the listed counties who wants one firm to look at the timber, make an offer and do the cutting.

Cedar Point Land Mamagement is a land clearing and site work business in Manakin-Sabot, Virginia. Its main work is clearing land, building and repairing gravel driveways and access roads, forestry mulching, grading and site prep, and septic and drain field work. It describes itself as family owned and locally owned. For woodland, the firm removes trees, stumps, brush, and roots so the ground is ready to build on or farm. Forestry mulching grinds brush and small trees where they stand, and the mulch stays on the ground as cover, so there are no burn piles. The business also lists fireline construction, forest road construction and maintenance, pre-harvest planning with logging engineering and road design, timber stand improvement, and wildlife habitat management. In their own words, "We work with what's there." A job starts with a walk of the property and a written scope and price, with no charge for the estimate. The crew clears the site, then hauls or mulches the debris and leaves it ready to use. Areas served include Albemarle, Amelia, Buckingham, Caroline, Culpeper, Cumberland, Dinwiddie, Fluvanna, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico, King William, Louisa, Madison, Mathews, Nelson, New Kent, Orange, Powhatan, Richmond, and Spotsylvania, along with Charlottesville City.

Commercial Forest Products is a hardwood lumber business, founded in 2009 and described as family-owned. Its own pages place it in Upland, California, not Fontana, Virginia. They describe a supplier that mills and planes hardwood, sells lumber, and makes custom hardwood flooring, mouldings and components. They do not describe a company that buys standing timber, logs land, or works with landowners. The species on its pages include alder, red gum, cherry, maple, walnut, oak, mahogany, padauk, poplar, sassafras, Spanish cedar, limba and ash, along with several imported woods. It also sells roasted wood, which is hardwood heat-treated in a kiln so it holds steady in damp conditions. The business names guitar and instrument making, flooring and millwork as common uses. It states that it is a member of the National Association of Music Merchants (NAMM) and that it is willing to tackle tough wood projects. The Virginia details in this listing, the town of Fontana, the timber marking service and the Virginia county list, do not appear on the business's own pages, so they are unconfirmed. Do not rely on them for a timber sale, marking or logging job. Confirm the location and services directly with the business first. This suits a woodworker, builder or instrument maker looking for cut hardwood, not a landowner who wants someone to buy or log standing timber. From commercialforestproducts.com, read 4 October 2026.

On a full job, the firm handles mapping, planting recommendations, soil sampling, budgeting and cost-share program contacts. Site work includes mowing, forestry mulching, boundary marking and invasive species control. Planting covers bareroot seedlings, container stock, Tubex tree shelters and Vispore weed mats, for both pine and hardwood. Maintenance includes survival checks and shelter removal. The firm also lists GPS and GIS mapping, mechanical site preparation, best management practice installation and wildlife habitat management. The team coordinates the work and keeps the landowner updated on progress. They source all the plants and materials too, so that you don't have to "worry about anything." A project manager at the firm, Rodney Nice, is a Society of American Foresters Certified Forester. The business serves landowners, organizations and localities from New York to Georgia and west to Ohio. Landowners who only want shelters or mats can order them shipped from the warehouse or pick them up. This suits a landowner who wants a planting or habitat project planned and carried out by one firm, or who needs only the materials and will handle the planting.

Hummingbird Land Services is a tree services business in Sandy Hook, Virginia.

These are jobs done on the trees and ground of a stand, so a landowner should ask about them directly before assuming a timber sale is part of the work. The counties it serves are Amelia, Appomattox, Brunswick, Buckingham, Caroline, Charles City, Charlotte, Chesterfield, Cumberland, Dinwiddie, Goochland, Hanover, Henrico, King William, Louisa, Lunenburg, Mecklenburg, New Kent, Nottoway, Orange, Powhatan, Prince Edward, and Richmond City.

Metz Forestry Solutions is a family business in Bealeton, Virginia, run by the Metz family. Its main work is land clearing by forestry mulching, which uses a specialized machine to grind brush, small trees, vines and other growth into mulch. Its other services include invasive species control, vegetation management, wildland fire prevention through firebreaks and fuel reduction, conservation work, field restoration and fireline construction. Jeff Metz is a retired firefighter from the Prince William County Department of Fire and Rescue, and he has worked in forestry for more than thirty years. Vinny Metz operates the heavy equipment, and Danielle Gambale-Metz handles logistics and the office. The conservation method, the business says, works by "keeping the soil disturbance relatively low." The first step is a one-hour meeting on your land to talk over the project. The business names PA, VA, MD and WV as its service area. Its Virginia coverage includes Fauquier, Loudoun, Prince William, Culpeper, Stafford and many other counties and cities, from Accomack to Winchester City. This suits owners whose main need is clearing overgrowth, invasive plants or firebreaks by mulching the growth into the ground. From metzforestrysolutions.pro, read 23 October 2026.

Shenandoah Habitat Services, LLC is a tree planting and habitat business in Fishersville, Virginia. It started in October 2019. The company describes itself as a one-stop shop for large-scale reforestation projects and natural resource management, and it also sells tree protection supplies. Most of the work is planting. Crews hand plant hardwood and pine, using bareroot seedlings, tubelings or container plants. The company also does native meadow establishment, live stake installation, mechanical site preparation, ground herbicide application, invasive species management, and wildlife habitat management. It sells traditional and degradable tree and shrub shelters, stakes and mats. Help runs from the first plan through installation and on-going maintenance. That includes project management, mowing, spot and strip spraying, stake maintenance, and removing bird netting and tree shelters. The company uses a seed drill built to be portable and maneuverable, and it says "we excel in small to mid-sizes projects." Counties it works in include Augusta, Albemarle, Rockingham and Fairfax. Stated credentials include a degree in Environmental Science and Biology from Ferrum College for David Coleman, and a forest ranger program for Jeff Brower, who later worked 15 years with the state Department of Forestry. Crews have planted thousands of acres of hardwood and conifer trees over the past thirty years, they say. This business suits a landowner who wants land replanted or turned into meadow, and who wants the same team to see the work through its maintenance years.

Questions landowners ask
How many timber buyers and foresters serve Dinwiddie County?
55 businesses are listed for Dinwiddie County: 37 consulting foresters and 18 buyers, loggers and mills. 2 of them have offices in the county.
How much is my timber worth in Dinwiddie 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. Virginia Tech's Forest Landowner Education Program publishes quarterly Virginia timber stumpage prices, which tells you what the market is doing, not what your tract holds. 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 Dinwiddie 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? →Do I need a permit to cut timber in Virginia?
Unlike some neighbouring states, Virginia does require you to notify the Department of Forestry before you start a commercial timber harvest — or within three working days after you begin — even on your own land. There is no approval to wait for, but failing to notify can bring a civil penalty. Water quality rules also apply, and following Best Management Practices is effectively required to stay protected under them.
Permit rules in Virginia →What is timber worth in Dinwiddie County?
No price series is published for Dinwiddie County on its own. Virginia's latest published stumpage figures (Virginia Tech's Forest Landowner Education Program, Q2 2026) put hardwood sawtimber at $224 per thousand board feet. 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.
