Florida wood suppliers

Buying lumber in Florida

Florida combines a substantial forest-products sector, especially in North Florida and the Panhandle, with large construction-material markets serving fast-growing metropolitan areas.

The Florida Forest Service reports that forests cover nearly half the state and identifies a broad forest-products economy. Local production and retail distribution vary significantly between northern timber regions and the state's major urban markets.

Before you go

• Check whether the business supplies locally produced wood, treated construction lumber, specialty material, or a combination.
• Confirm treatment rating, species, grade, dimensions, moisture condition, availability, and delivery terms for your project.
