Timber Marketing & Management
About Timber Marketing & Management
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.

Can they handle a timber sale?
Selling standing timber properly takes three things. Here's what the state register credits this firm with.
Timber AppraisalAn estimate of what your standing timber is worth in dollars, based on how much there is, its quality, and current prices. When you are selling, settling an estate, dividing property, or need a value for taxes or insurance.What does this mean? → — not listed
works out what your standing timber is worth
Timber Cruise & Volume EstimateA field measurement of your standing trees — their species, sizes, and quality — that adds up to how much wood you actually have. Before you sell, so you go in knowing roughly what is out there rather than taking a buyer's word for it.What does this mean? → — not listed
measures and grades what's actually out there
Timber Sale & Contract AdministrationRunning the sale for you: advertising the timber, taking bids, writing the contract, and overseeing the logging so the agreed terms are met. When you want someone on your side handling the whole sale rather than dealing with buyers and loggers yourself.What does this mean? → — not listed
runs the sale and handles the contract
This firm isn't credited with all three, which doesn't make it a worse forester — plenty specialise in management planning, wildlife or wetlands. It does mean that if your goal is to sell timber, you'd likely need someone else for the part that's missing.
