The types of trees that timber buyers and loggers buy in Athens County

As you’re probably aware Black Walnut and White Oak trees are always in demand, and Walnut veneer logs are very valuable indeed. Both of these species can be found throughout Athens County.

These are also the kinds of logs that unethical timber buyers and loggers will often under-bid for and try to trick you into harvesting before they are mature enough to bring you full value. It’s for this reason that you should hire an experienced consulting forester like us to identify them, and protect the value of your timber stand.

Honest timber buyers will buy all the types of mature hardwood trees you see in the list below. And they’ll pay you full value for them if you have us conduct the sale for you. 

The various species they’re looking for most often are:

Ash

Aspen

Basswood

Beech

Birch

Don’t let timber buyers rip you off

Dishonest timber buyers and unscrupulous loggers have several ways to abuse landowners including low-balling, high grading, over-harvesting, deceitful measurements, and crossing property lines to take timber that they didn’t pay for. 

Yes, these things really do happen here in Athens County too.  We explain all of these dirty tricks (and more) on our Timber Talk blog.

No matter who they are, or how good you think their business reputation might be, you should never let a timber buyer onto your land without first talking to an independent forester like us. 

Our work keeps timber buyers honest

We have many years of experience in forestry, land management and in timber stand improvement work to back up our words. We’ve also worked as loggers for years before that.  This is how we know the things we’re warning you about, and how we developed ways to protect you from dishonest loggers. Our service area covers most of Ohio and extends to Western Pennsylvania too.
