Not sure what your woodlot includes? With a professional “timber cruise” we can advise you on the likely value of your woodlot and provide recommendations for improving its longevity and commercial value.
If you have decided to sell timber on your land, you want to receive maximum value for your woodlot. Timber sales may involve a competitive bidding process, but stumpage prices can vary widely. Factors that influence rates include soil types, season (winter or summer), species, and distance from mills. Wisconsin DNR regularly posts bid results for public forests, which can help you evaluate comparable bids for similar species.
