Erickson Logging

About Erickson Logging

Erickson Logging is a logging contractor based in Gig Harbor, Washington, working with private landowners as well as municipalities and state and federal agencies. They harvest timber and also buy it, and they serve Pierce County. They take on both ground based harvests and cable or high lead harvests, so flat ground, steep hills, or a mix of both can be worked. They offer free evaluations if you want to know what your timber is worth, and say they "can usually accommodate requests within a week." The company started in 1988 as a firewood operation with one processor and three trucks, and has grown from there, now running enough equipment for three ground-based logging sites. They state a 20 acre minimum. Their own figures give a sense of the range involved: "the harvest of a well-stocked 20-acre parcel can bring anywhere from $50k to $600k," depending on things like age, species, and access to the site. This fits a landowner with a decently sized, well-stocked parcel in Pierce County who wants a contractor with real equipment behind them and is comfortable getting a free look before deciding anything.
