Timber Buyers, Loggers & Mills in Floyd County (1)
This buyer is based in Floyd County. Being close matters: hauling is one of the biggest costs taken out of your check.
Robinson Lumber Company is a sawmill and lumber business with a concentration yard in New Albany, Indiana. The company itself is headquartered in New Orleans, Louisiana, but the Indiana yard is what matters if you're nearby in Floyd County. It's been family run since 1893, now in its fifth generation. This isn't a business set up to buy standing timber off your back forty or walk your woods with you. What they do is process green lumber into kiln dried lumber and strips, with the New Albany yard sitting in what they call "the best White Oak and Hickory region in North America." Their kilns run computer controlled, with stacking, surfacing and ripping done in house to get a "consistently superior quality product, uniform in color and texture." Species handled include White Oak, Hickory, and a long list of hardwoods and pines from their other operations, plus imported woods like Mahogany and Jatoba. They hold Forest Stewardship Council certification. Nothing here says they take on small private tracts or do logging jobs for individual landowners. This looks built for mills, suppliers, and buyers further down the wood products chain, not for someone with a woodlot wondering who to call about a one-time harvest.

How much is my timber worth in Floyd County?
Nobody can tell you what your timber is worth without walking it. Value depends on the species, the size and grade of the trees, how thickly they stand, the ground conditions and how easily a logger can reach them. Anyone who quotes you a figure without seeing the land is guessing, and a guess in that direction is rarely in your favour.
What stumpage value means →Do I need a forestry consultant to sell timber in Floyd County?
You do not have to use one. A consulting forester works for you rather than the buyer, marks the timber, runs a sealed-bid sale and typically charges a percentage of the sale. Research from several state extension services has found that timber sold through a consultant often returns enough more to cover the fee, though results vary by tract and by market. The decision usually turns on the size of the sale and whether you have sold timber before.
