The types of timber you can sell in Geauga County

Loggers are always looking to buy timber here. And “timber” is best defined as a lot of mature hardwood trees that can be readily harvested. You need at least ten acres of wooded land to expect to earn decent money from a timber sale

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

These are the kinds of logs that timber buyers will usually under-bid for and dishonest loggers will try to trick you into harvesting before they are mature enough to bring you full value. It’s for this reason that you need experienced foresters 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 hardwood species they’re looking for most often are:

Ash
Aspen
Basswood
Beech
Birch
Butternut
Catalpa
Cherry
Chestnut
Elm
Gum
Hemlock
Hickory
Locust
Maple
Oak
Poplar
Red Cedar
Sycamore
Tulip
Walnut
White Pine

Don’t let loggers or timber buyers rip you off

Dishonest timber buyers and loggers plenty of ways to trick 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 every week here in Geauga 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.
