Timber Buyers & Forestry Professionals in Winlock, WA

Forest Management Solutions, LLC is based in Centralia, Washington. They handle timberland management and forestry consulting for landowners, covering everything from timber cruising and valuation to logging subcontracting, log marketing, harvest permitting, engineering, and silviculture work like planting, thinning, and spraying. Their core services break down into a few areas: timberland management (management plans, contractor selection and negotiation, generational ownership transitions, acquisition and sale advising), timber harvesting (harvest planning and layout for thinnings and regeneration, log sales and marketing, road construction), timber cruising and valuation (land acquisitions, timber sales, estate valuations, cost basis estimates), GIS/GPS mapping, and reforestation (site prep, seedling procurement, stand monitoring, vegetation and animal damage control). On the harvesting side they say they have a "strong network of log buyers and logging contractors" to work the sale when the time comes. They also help attorneys, CPAs, and real estate professionals who need to understand timber values and succession planning. They work throughout western Washington and northwest Oregon, with current operations centered in Lewis County. They have been in business since 2014. Their minimum acreage is 5 acres, stated plainly in their own words: "Whether you own 5 acres or 5000, we take pride in providing current, professional forestry services." This outfit suits a landowner who wants one business to carry a timber sale from first cruise through harvest to reforestation, rather than juggling separate contractors for each step, and who may also be dealing with an estate or ownership transition alongside the timber itself.
