Kansas Timber
Buyers
July 2015
Selling Timber in Kansas
The following is a list of timber buyers that purchase timber in Kansas. The list only includes buyers that have asked to be listed. Therefore, it is not
a complete list of timber buyers in Kansas. You may know of other buyers to add to the list. It is suggested that you send a Solicitation of Bid
Form to buyers on this list who indicate they will purchase the tree species you have for sale. The number of Solicitation of Bid Forms that you
send is your decision. You probably will want to send bid forms to all buyers who have indicated they will purchase timber in your buying area.
Timber buyers should also be provided the following information.





Number of trees for sale.
Location from the nearest town.
Name, address and telephone number of contact person.
Time and location of bid opening (allow 30 days after notification).
Terms of sale (recommended lump sum payment before cutting begins).
Bids should be opened only at the specified time and location. Some buyers may want to be present at the bid opening. If a bid is accepted, that
bidder should be notified immediately to make arrangements to negotiate a timber sale agreement. Unsuccessful bidders should be notified.
Remember you have the right to accept or reject any or all bids. A timber sale agreement or contract should include:




Terms of payment (lump sum prior to cutting is recommended).
Time allowed for completion of harvest (6-9 months minimum).
Liability for damage to persons or property.
Guarantees of entrance, right-of-way and title of property.
You should periodically check the progress of the harvest to make certain the agreement is being followed. Sample Solicitation of Bid and Timber
Sale Agreement Forms are available from the District Forester who services your area. District Forester’s addresses, phone numbers and areas of
service are located at the end of the Timber Buyer’s List.
Additional information related to marketing timber can be found in the publication “Marketing Kansas Timber” (publication number C-542). This
publication, along with numerous others designed to help landowners with forest related issues, can be obtained from your District Forester or by
visiting the Kansas Forester Service’s web site at: www.kansasforests.org
Reference to timber buyers on this list is not intended as an endorsement. Buyers on the list have asked that their name be included. No
timber buyer has been excluded on purpose. Anyone wishing to be added to the list should contact David Bruton, Utilization and Marketing
