Alabama wood suppliers

Buying lumber in Alabama

Alabama has a large Southern forest-products economy, with pine and hardwood mills, manufacturers, local sawyers, and construction lumberyards throughout the state.

The Alabama Forestry Commission publishes forest-resource reports and a forest-industry directory covering businesses that make and market Alabama wood products. Supplier type remains important because primary mills and retail lumberyards serve different buyers.

Before you go

• Check whether the business sells to the public and whether it carries locally produced lumber or standard construction stock.
• Confirm species, treatment, grade, dimensions, drying, surfacing, minimum quantities, and delivery or pickup terms.
