Rock Creek Millworks is a sawmill and hardwood retailer in Ottawa, Kansas, at 1572 Rock Creek Rd. It's family owned, and in its own words it set out "to create an honest source for locally harvested hardwoods where customers could work with real people and honest pricing." The mill sells kiln dried hardwoods and live edge slabs in White Oak, Red Oak, Walnut, Hickory, Elm, Maple, and Box Elder. It also keeps a retail location in Lawrence. It serves Franklin County and is found in the Anderson County listings as a saw mill. Inventory changes often, so calling ahead to check on current stock and sizes is part of how they do business. This is not a business that buys standing timber or logs off your land, and it doesn't describe a harvest or timber sale process. What it does offer is a place to sell or buy finished hardwood material, kiln dried boards by the foot and live edge slabs and mantels in named sizes, with prices posted and updated. This fits a landowner, or anyone else, looking for a local source of hardwood lumber or slabs already milled and dried, not someone looking to sell standing trees or have a stand logged.

Wyco Wood Co. is a sawmill and timber-buying outfit based in Kansas City, Kansas. They don't ask you to haul logs anywhere. As they put it, "we bring one of our two sawmills to your location and mill up your logs to your exact specifications." They're family-owned and veteran-owned. What they work with is oak, walnut, cherry, and aromatic red cedar. Services cover mobile saw milling, kiln drying lumber, lumber sales, large log removal, and cutting dunnage, blocking, and wedges for shipping. Their process is straightforward: they bring their equipment to you, cut the tree the way you want it, and hand you workable material for your project. They offer a free consultation before anything starts. The area they serve is the Kansas City Metro, including Lawrence, Olathe, Liberty, Smithville, and Platte City. For landowners checking the map, they're also found listed in Atchison County, Kansas, with Leavenworth County named among the counties they serve. There's no stated minimum acreage or job size on their pages, so there's nothing to go on there beyond knowing they work directly with individual logs and trees rather than large tracts. This fits a landowner in the Kansas City area with a handful of good oak, walnut, cherry, or cedar trees who wants someone to mill those specific logs on site rather than sell standing timber in bulk.

Gordons Custom Sawmilling LLC runs a sawmill in Delia, Kansas, under the name Gordon's Mill. It is family-operated: the owner is a veteran who grew up around hardwood lumber and woodworking through his great-grandfather, a carpenter in Kansas, and he now runs the mill with his wife, Dani, and son, MaKaden. They serve Jackson County. The work centers on hardwood lumber. Services offered are custom sawmilling, kiln drying, live edge slabs, and buying standing wood through "We Buy Your Wood." They describe their approach as "producing high-quality premium hardwood lumber using advanced equipment, including a TimberKing 2220 sawmill," and they keep what they call a "Large Inventory of Premium Wood" on hand. There is also a lumber store at their Delia location, open "by appointment only," where landowners or buyers can come look at stock in person. This fits a landowner with hardwood timber who wants custom milling, kiln drying, or live edge work done by a small family operation, or who wants someone to buy standing wood rather than just advise on a sale.

Busenitz Custom Woodworks is a lumber yard and sawmill in Whitewater, Kansas. They describe themselves as "a full-service lumber yard and sawmill," working with domestic and exotic hardwood lumber as well as live edge slabs. This isn't standing timber buying or logging work on your acres; it's a mill and yard that turns wood into usable lumber and slabs, and they also build custom furniture. For a landowner, that means Busenitz Custom Woodworks is the kind of outfit you'd deal with after logs come off your land, or if you want slabs and lumber milled for a project rather than help selling or marking timber. They don't describe a timber sale process, a harvesting crew, or any credentials, so this reads as a milling and woodworking shop rather than a timber management service. They list Butler County as served. Once a job starts, they say "we stay in constant communication with our customers until the job is done," and they offer a free quote if you reach out with questions or special requests. No minimum job size is spelled out. This fits a landowner who already has logs or timber ready to be sawn, wants hardwood lumber or live edge slabs for a build, or wants custom furniture made from wood off their own property, rather than someone just starting out trying to figure out whether to sell standing timber at all.

SawyerJoez is a sawmill business in Chapman, Kansas, run as a "3-generation father & son company" that mills hardwood logs. It serves Dickinson County, with sawmill locations in Kansas and Missouri, and the owners note they are "Veteran owned and operated." The work here is custom milling rather than standing timber purchase: cutting black walnut, hickory, sycamore, oak, ash, and hackberry logs into lumber, slabs, and mantles to order, plus kiln drying and slab flattening. You can bring your own logs to either mill, or they will come to a location of your choice. On-site cutting is billed at $125 an hour with a 6 hour minimum, and if the mill hits metal while cutting, a $40 surcharge is added for each occurrence. Logs brought to the Chapman location run $85 an hour with a 1 hour minimum, while the Missouri mill in Mexico charges $70 an hour with a 2 hour minimum. Cutting speed depends on how clean the logs are, running roughly 250 board feet an hour on the larger portable mill. This fits a landowner who already has logs down, or standing trees they plan to fell themselves, and wants someone to turn those logs into usable lumber, slabs, or custom pieces rather than someone to buy and harvest standing timber.

Berg ReInvigorations LLC is a sawmill and millwork shop in Coffeyville, Kansas, family owned and operating since 2017. It serves Montgomery County. They mill, kiln dry, plane, and sand hardwoods and softwoods grown in Kansas, Missouri, Arkansas, and Oklahoma, and they offer timber frame design, mortise and tenon joinery, and frame erection within a 200 mile radius. They work with species like white oak, black walnut, western red cedar, Douglas fir, and southern yellow pine, offering heavy timbers both kiln dried and air dried. Material comes from local loggers, "from the small truck farm logger to the commercial feller buncher and delimber logger company." Kiln dried stock is guaranteed at 12% or less moisture content up to 8/4 thickness, with 10/4 and thicker stock guaranteed at 18% or less. This fits a landowner who already has logs cut, or has a logger lined up, and wants that wood milled, dried, and turned into timber frame material or finish lumber, rather than someone looking for a buyer to come purchase standing timber off their acres.

True Roots Custom Hardwoods is a sawmill and wood processing shop in Paola, Kansas. They turn raw logs into slabs and boards, offering milling and sawing, kiln drying, and slab flattening. They work with walnut, pecan, oak, elm, and other hardwood species, and they say they "turn raw logs into usable slabs and boards with precision cuts." Their process runs in four steps: you reach out with what you need, they review the project and recommend material or service, they mill, dry, or flatten to spec, and then you pick up or they deliver. They handle slabs too wide or heavy for standard planers, flattening them on a commercial-series flattener built for that work. Drying is done in vacuum kilns, and finished slabs run from 4 feet up to 16 feet or more in length, suited to tables, bar tops, countertops, and larger builds. They describe themselves as "Family-owned • High-quality hardwoods • Built for professionals and builders," and they serve Miami County along with Kansas, Missouri, and the Kansas City area. This one suits a landowner who already has logs cut or is thinking about custom slabs and board work, built for professionals and builders, rather than someone looking to sell standing timber.

Questions landowners ask
How many mills are there in Kansas?
16 are listed on TimberClear, sourced from the Kansas forestry register, covering 15 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.
