Questions
Small Wood Thinning FAQs
Will thinning pay for itself?
On commercial-size wood it often does, and sometimes returns a check. Pre-commercial thinning is usually an investment in future stand value — we tell you which one your ground is before you commit.
How much do you take out?
We work to your prescription or write one with you, typically targeting spacing that keeps the healthiest crop trees and removes the rest.
We run small wood thinning throughout Wallowa, OR, Enterprise, OR, Joseph, OR, Lostine, OR, Elgin, OR, La Grande, OR and the rest of Oregon. See the full service area.
