What we do
Small wood thinning to full clear cut, poles to firewood, right-of-way to finished road — on private and public land projects.
Pre-commercial and commercial thinning that opens the stand, takes the suppressed wood and leaves your best trees room to grow.
Build sites, pasture, food plots and trails cleared to the line you mark and left ready for the next crew.
We sort, buck and merchandise pole-quality timber so the high-value wood on your ground gets paid for as poles, not pulp.
Selective harvest that takes the marked timber and protects the residual stand, soil and shade you want to keep.
Full unit harvest from layout to haul-off — falling, yarding, loading and clean landings, on private or public ground.
Firewood-length rounds cut and decked on site, or hauled — a good use for tops, cull logs and thinning wood.
Blowdown, blocked roads and hazard trees cleared fast, with the salvageable timber decked instead of wasted.
Utility and access right-of-way clearing plus forest road building, brushing, rocking and maintenance.
Defensible space, ladder fuel removal and shaded fuel breaks that lower fire risk around homes, shops and whole properties.
Dirt work, pads, drainage and irrigation ditch cutting and cleaning with tracked excavators.
Brush, saplings and slash mulched in place into a clean chip mat — no piles, no burning, no hauling.
Stumps ground flush or excavated out so the ground is ready for pasture, pad or driveway.
On the ground
We sort every log to its best market, protect the residual stand and the soil, and leave roads and landings in shape when we pull off. Private ground or public contract, the standard is the same.




Father & son
Sweeney Logging and Timber is family run — a father and son who grew up on Oregon ground, running the saws, the shovel and the trucks themselves. When you call, you talk to the people who will actually be on your property.
That means one crew, one standard, and a job we're willing to put our own name on.

Iron on the ground
Harvesters and processors, shovel loggers, dozers and our own log trucks — owned, maintained and operated by us. That means we keep working when the weather turns and you are not waiting on a rented machine.
How it goes
You always know what happens next, what it costs, and when we're on site.
Free on-site look at the acreage, access and what you want the finished ground to do.
You get a written price with the scope spelled out. No hourly surprises.
Well-maintained tracked equipment, insured operators, and daily updates while we're on site.
We walk it with you before we pull off. If something isn't right, we fix it.
