You can sell these kinds of hardwood timber and logs in Ross 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 Ross County.
These are also the kinds of logs that timber buyers 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.

Don’t let loggers or timber buyers cheat you
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 Ross 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.
We keep 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.
