Grau Logs & Lumber Inc. is a sawmill and timber business in Elkader, Iowa, serving Clayton County. They've been at it since 1948. They do a bit of everything with wood. On the forestry side, they put together forest management plans, handle timber sales and marketing, and do timber appraisals. On the mill side, they run a circular sawmill turning out cants, fuelwood, grade lumber, pallet lumber, rough lumber, ties, wood mulch, and custom sawing, with custom milling available too. Their stated mission is "to promote good stewardship and management of timberlands, along with the benefit of periodic income by way of various wood products." They also say they'll "always strive to seek the best markets for the wood products, in order to produce the best economic result for the landowner, without compromising the health and balance of the timber area." This looks like a fit for a Clayton County landowner who wants one outfit that can both manage the timber and mill it, rather than juggling separate contractors for each piece.

Hammes Brothers Sawmill Inc. is a sawmill in Ollie, Iowa. It's set up under the "Wood Processors" contact area in the Iowa State Extension directory, with Jeff Sieren as the contact. The mill processes all tree species and produces grade lumber, pallet lumber, and veneer. It does not do custom milling, and it has no kiln drying service or portable mill, so this is a stationary operation that works with logs brought to it rather than coming out to the woods. Keokuk County is the county served. This directory entry doesn't give a minimum acreage or tract size for timber sales. This fits a landowner near Ollie or Keokuk County who already has logs cut, or who wants a mill that handles grade lumber, pallet lumber, and veneer across all species, rather than someone looking for a forester to walk their woods or a logger to come harvest standing timber.

Kendrick Forest Products is a consulting forester in Edgewood, Iowa. It appears in the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, Contacts for Forestry - Iowa County directory.

Moravia Hardwoods, LLC is a consulting forester in Moravia, Iowa. It appears in the Iowa State University Extension and Outreach, Contacts for Forestry - Iowa County directory.

Pierce Lumber, Inc is a band sawmill in Belle Plaine, Iowa, "producer of fine Northern hardwoods and kiln-dried lumber." It's been running since 1977. The mill works with rift and quartered white oak, red oak, walnut, cherry, hard maple, soft maple, ash, hickory, red elm, and grey elm, plus width sorted white oak and walnut, chips, and bark and mulch. Its main products are blocking, cants, grade lumber, pallet lumber, rough lumber, and mulch, and it has offered kiln drying. Procurement reaches out to a 200 mile radius, and it's listed as serving Benton County. There's no minimum tract size given, and the business doesn't spell out a timber sale or harvest process, so a landowner with standing timber to sell would want to call and ask directly how that works with them. This looks like a fit for someone closer to selling logs or sawtimber into a working mill than someone needing a forester to walk their woods and plan a harvest.

Alan R Lane dba Lane's Tree Service is listed in the timber-buyers category out of Lyons, Iowa. Beyond the name and location, there isn't solid detail to pass along here. The website turned up for this listing actually belongs to a different, same-named tree service business in Lyons, Nebraska, one that does trimming, removal, stump work, and land clearing rather than buying timber or running timber sales, so none of those details can be tied back to this Iowa listing with any confidence. For a landowner in Lyons, Iowa trying to sell timber, this listing gives you a name and a place to start asking questions, but you'll want to call and ask directly about species, acreage, and how a sale would run before you count on anything else.

Bill Miller Logging, Inc., operating as Bill Miller & Sons Logging, works out of Dubuque, Iowa, and covers Dubuque County as well as the wider tri-state area of Iowa, Wisconsin, and Illinois. The business dates back to 1965 and says its work is "built on honesty and integrity." It logs timber, buys standing timber, and also handles land clearing, forestry mulching, grinding and chipping, stump removal, and delivery. On the timber side there's selective harvest, taking only what's marketable right now, and timber stand improvement, thinning out low-grade trees so the better ones can grow. What comes off the land gets turned into firewood, chips and biomass, or playground chips. The crew describes their "proper felling and management skills has led us to being a popular choice among concerned landowners in the tri-state area," and say they practice responsible harvesting based on both maturity and marketability, asking landowners to call ahead of a sale for a free estimate. The business states it is fully licensed and bonded. On the clearing side, the equipment list runs to mobile grinders and a chipharvestor that can handle logs up to 22 inches across, used on residential, agricultural, and right-of-way jobs, plus work around ponds, dams, and levees. This suits a Dubuque-area landowner who wants one outfit that can walk a timber sale and also clean up whatever land clearing or stump work goes along with it, from a business that has been at it since 1965.

It's a third generation, family-run outfit that has been doing sustainable timber harvesting since the 1960s. They take on logging, log buying, and selective timber harvesting and management. They specialize in Black Walnut and White Oak, but also work with other hardwoods, and they buy lumber and veneer logs. They say they'll "quickly offer bids, can provide immediate payment, and haul logs right away while respecting your property." They are licensed, bonded, and insured. There's no stated minimum acreage. They say the work ranges "from cutting a few trees to clean up a pasture or field edge to jobs with hundreds of trees," so they're set up to handle small jobs as well as large ones. They're based in Bellevue and serve Jackson County, and they note they've worked with timber growers across Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, Missouri, Nebraska, and Minnesota. This fits a landowner in Jackson County, Iowa, with walnut or oak on the property, who wants a long-running family business that will buy standing timber or logs and move quickly once a deal is struck.

Coldwater Veneer, Inc. is a veneer mill in Coldwater, Michigan, at 548 Race Street. It runs a sawmill operation and also buys logs, with custom cutting and veneer sales as part of what it offers. The mill works in a long list of hardwoods and one softwood, including ash, birch, cherry, hickory, maple, red oak, white oak, walnut, and poplar, along with red elm, gray elm, alder, and cypress. If you have something else growing on your land, their species page invites you to "tell us what you're sourcing" and they'll confirm if they can use it. The Coldwater mill was built in 1979 and Dean Calhoun bought it in December of 1991. Coldwater Veneer is FSC® Certified and is a member of the Architectural Woodwork Institute, where as a supplier member it says it upholds the ethics and standards set by that group. Its own description of the business is that it works to "procure the finest logs, uphold uncompromising quality at every stage of manufacturing, and deliver a customer experience defined by trust, excellence, and care." This fits a landowner who already knows they have valuable veneer-grade logs, in species like walnut, white oak, or cherry, and wants to deal directly with a mill that processes and sells the veneer itself rather than a broker who resells to one.

Double S Logging is a father and son logging outfit working out of Bloomfield, Iowa, buying and harvesting timber across Iowa and Missouri, including Davis County. They've been at it more than 12 years. They take on custom timber harvesting, sustainable forestry management, selective timber removal, and thinning, working in walnut, maple, white oak, and other hardwoods. A job starts with them walking the land to look at species, stand density, and the health of the forest, then they recommend selective harvesting, thinning, or clear-cutting depending on what fits. They run their own trucking too, so they can haul logs from your property straight to the mill without bringing in someone else for that leg. They say their specialty is "collecting timber ethically while maintaining accuracy and sustainability," and that they handle jobs "from selective harvesting to clear-cut operations." They're licensed, insured, and bonded. Besides Bloomfield, they name towns like Ottumwa, Centerville, Fairfield, Eldon, Floris, Keosauqua, Albia, and a string of other small Iowa towns near the Missouri line as places they'll come to. This fits a landowner in that southeast Iowa or northeast Missouri country who wants one crew to both cut the timber and truck it out, and who likes the idea of a small family operation rather than a big company.

J & K Tree Services, LLC is a tree care business in Ackworth, Iowa. They work on tree removal, stump removal, tree trimming, emergency tree services, hedge and bush trimming, and fence line clearing, and they also take on insurance-related storm damage work. This isn't a timber buyer or logging outfit. There's no mention of buying standing timber, scaling logs, or paying for wood by species or volume. If you've got a woodlot and want someone to purchase the timber off it, this isn't set up to do that kind of sale. What they do describe is hands-on tree work around homes and properties, including taking down mature trees near structures and clearing storm damage for insurance claims. They serve Warren County, with work named in Indianola and Des Moines and the surrounding communities. The business has been established since 2006. This fits a landowner who has a few trees that are a hazard, storm-damaged, or need clearing along a fence line, not someone looking to sell standing timber off acreage.

Mitchell Logging & Tree Service LLC, also doing business as Mitchell Land Management, works out of Marshalltown, Iowa, and handles timber buying, logging, and land clearing for landowners in Marshall County. The crew does selective cut logging, aimed at removing damaged or diseased trees while leaving the healthier ones to grow. They also buy standing timber outright, so if you've got wooded acreage you want to turn into value, that's an option alongside or instead of a straight logging job. Beyond trees, they handle forestry mulching, replanting, demolition, excavation and dozer work, pond and waterway work, tile installation and repair, stump removal, and hauling, so a timber sale can lead straight into other land work if you need it. For a logging job, the process runs in a set order: a site assessment to pick which trees come out and how equipment will get in and out, then cutting, gathering, and hauling the timber, with debris cleared and any dozer or skid loader work finished before they call the job done. They describe their work as "responsible, sustainable services" and say "No Project too Big or Small." The business has been doing this kind of land management work for over 20 years, serving property owners across Iowa from its Marshalltown base. This fits a landowner in Marshall County who wants one outfit to both buy their standing timber and handle whatever land work comes after the cutting is done.

They are interested in most hardwoods but specialize in Black Walnut, saying they have "harvested hundreds of thousands of board feet" of it over the years. Landowners, farmers, developers, and homeowners all call them when they want to sell timber or clear out walnut trees. Their process is straightforward: they come out, locate and measure your trees to work out the stumpage in board feet, mark each tree with paint, and then give you their best offer for the lot. For skidding they use John Deere 4052m tractors, which they say are lightweight and built to keep from tearing up the ground or leaving a mess behind. This fits a Polk County landowner with walnut or mixed hardwoods who wants a local, family-run crew to come look at the trees, mark them, and make an offer without a long back-and-forth.

Tony May dba Little Cedar Windows, based in Osage, Iowa, is a window and siding company. They handle residential and commercial window and siding installations, new homes, and additions. Tony May runs it with his sons. This is not a timber buying or logging outfit. There's nothing here about cruising timber, buying standing trees, or forest management. If you're trying to sell timber off your acreage, this isn't the business for that job. They work on windows, siding (vinyl or steel), and construction of additions or new homes, mostly around Osage and the Iowa towns they list, including Mitchell County. They say they're "Licensed & Insured" and that "Most installations are completed in one day." They belong to the Better Business Bureau and the Charles City Chamber of Commerce. This listing suits a landowner who typed the wrong kind of search and landed here looking for a timber buyer, but who might also need new windows or siding on the farmhouse while they're at it.

Tracy Export, Inc. buys hardwood logs for export, out of East Dubuque. They specialize in "premium hardwood veneer and sawlogs that are harvested with sustainability and preservation of our natural resource in mind." This is a family business, now three generations in, shipping logs overseas for over four decades. They work in black walnut, white oak, red oak, grey elm, red elm, basswood, hard maple, soft maple, cherry, sycamore, sassafras, hickory, butternut, beech, ash, and hackberry. Every log gets inspected, graded, and scaled against the customer's order, but that grading happens at one of their three yards, not out at your timber site. So if you're selling to them, your logs travel before they get their final grade. They tell you to let them know what species and grade you've got, and they'll tell you what they're looking to buy. Their products carry FSC certification. Their main office sits at 5149 Barge Terminal Rd. in East Dubuque, with other yards in Cahokia Heights, Illinois and White Pigeon, Michigan, each one staffed full-time with its own container loading setup. There's nothing here about them coming out to walk a woodlot or handle the cutting themselves. This looks like a fit for someone who already has logs cut and ready, or is working through a logger, and wants a buyer on the export side rather than someone to run the harvest.

Trade Well Pallet, Inc. is listed as a timber buyer, based in Gretna. The address on file is 22801 Fairview Road, Gretna, NE 68028, and the phone number is (402) 332-3500. The business also shows two more locations under the same name, one at 774 County Road 4 in Ashland and one at 3650 N Constitution Ave in Kenesaw. All three places share the Gretna phone line for anyone calling in. For a landowner with a few acres of standing timber, this listing gives a place to start: a name, a category, and a number to dial. There's no acreage figure attached to it, no species named, and no walk-through of how a job or sale would run, so the first conversation would be the one that fills in those details. This suits a landowner who already has a name in hand from somewhere else and just needs the Gretna address and phone number to make the first call themselves.

Broadleaf Lumber: Standing Timber Buyer is a timber buyer based in Bloomfield, Iowa. They buy standing timber and also take on logging work, with cleanup included after harvest. They are interested in tracts in Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, and Illinois. They focus on Walnut and White Oak, among other hardwood species. Their stated minimum is 25 acres, or 30 trees. On how a sale runs, they say "You get paid before any trees are harvested from your property," and they describe their harvesting as done so that "your timber is sustainable for years to come." They state they carry bonding in Iowa and Illinois and that their team is staffed with licensed professionals. They offer a free consultation if you want to talk through selling your trees. This fits a landowner in Davis County or nearby with a larger tract of walnut or white oak who wants payment settled before any cutting starts, and who wants cleanup handled as part of the job rather than left to sort out afterward.

Walnut Timber Buyers is an industrial logging company based in Beardstown, Illinois, that buys bulk timber straight off farms and hunting land. They work as both timber buyers and loggers, handling the cutting as well as the sale. They buy standing walnut, white oak, red oak, hickory, ash, maple and black oak. Their process starts with marking property lines and picking the trees worth the most, then felling them with care, grading roads to gather the logs in one spot, and cleaning up behind themselves. From there they "find the best buyer available, pay you for your timber and transport it off your land." They offer a free appraisal before any of that starts. They describe themselves as licensed timber buyers and say they've worked with landowners and importers across Illinois and Missouri for the past 30 years. Their reach runs within a 300-mile radius of Beardstown, covering Illinois along with Central and Eastern Missouri. They don't set a minimum by acreage. Instead they say "we are only considering projects of 20 or more mature trees," so a smaller lot with enough big hardwoods could still qualify. This suits a landowner near Beardstown, Illinois, with a solid stand of marketable hardwood, who wants one outfit to appraise, cut, sell and haul the timber rather than juggling separate companies for each step.

Questions landowners ask
How many timber buyers are there in Iowa?
151 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Iowa forestry register, covering 7 counties between them.
How do I choose between them?
Start local and get more than one. A business based in your county knows the mills and the ground; one registered for all one hundred counties may be three hours away. Every listing here shows how far its office is from the county you are looking at, so "will travel" is never mistaken for "is local". TimberClear has not vetted, verified or endorsed anybody on this site.
