Beware of Shady Sellers
Some unscrupulous lumber companies charge hidden extra fees, ship low-grade material, and source their wood from unethical mills. Here are some questions to ask when buying your lumber:
- Where is the material shipping from?
- Has the seller actually seen the wood they're selling?
- Can you visit their warehouse?
Our lumber is sustainably sourced directly from well managed forest and custom milled with our own machinery. We have a huge inventory that you’re welcome to visit any time, and we work with the wood ourselves, so we can guarantee its quality. We don’t charge extra insurance or packaging fees—we cover those for you!
In short, if a deal seems too good to be true, it probably is. Learn more about how to avoid bad lumber companies.
