Loggers buy timber based on these main factors
The volume of timber in a stand is the primary factory in calculating the value of timber. Ten acres is typically the minimum size that will hold enough mature trees to generate attractive offers.
Accessibility is the next main factor. Loggers will typically bid higher for readily-accessible timber, because less labor and equipment are needed to harvest it.
The final main factors are species and quality. Mature trees of at least 16-inches in diameter at breast-height (DBH) are mature and merchantable, and most trees smaller than this should be left to grow until a future harvest.
Mature black walnut and white oak trees have the most valuable logs of all, and they’re the ones that unethical loggers will invariably under-bid or try to trick you into selling before they’re fully mature.
And they'll pay you the most for logs from these trees

- If you have any of these trees in your stand, don't let a logger near them before you talk to us.
But don't let loggers and timber buyers cheat you
We keep these people honestTimber buyers and loggers can seem friendly and knowledgeable, and some are very good at pretending to be so. But you shouldn’t let them lead you to believe that they’re your friend or ally in the timber business.
Loggers are not paid to get you top dollar for your timber. In fact, every single one of them is incentivized to grab your timber for the lowest possible price they can persuade you to accept.
They also have many ways to trick unwary landowners including: low-balling, high grading, false scaling, deceitful point of cut scams, under-reporting the harvest and more.
And yes, these things happen here in Chillicothe all the time.
No matter who they are, or how good you think their business reputation is (and even if they drive a horse and buggy) you should never let a logger onto your land without first talking to an experienced independent forester like us.
