How much does it cost to ship lumber?
Cost varies by mileage, shipment weight and dimensions, trailer type, fuel and market conditions, loading requirements, schedule and tarping or permit needs. Submit the exact load details for a current quote.
What equipment is used to transport lumber?
Flatbeds are common because they allow side and overhead loading. Step decks may suit taller products. Depending on size and protection needs, other open-deck or enclosed equipment may be considered.
Can lumber be covered during transport?
Tarping may be requested for moisture-sensitive products. Please mention coverage requirements when requesting a quote so suitable equipment and labor can be considered.
Do you ship partial loads?
Partial-load options may be available for qualifying shipments. Provide piece count, packaging, exact dimensions and total weight so the load can be evaluated.
How should lumber be prepared?
Material should generally be bundled, banded, stable and ready for safe loading and securement. The shipper should provide accurate dimensions and weight and disclose special handling requirements.
Do you transport oversized beams or trusses?
We can review over-dimensional wood products. Oversize movement may require specialized equipment, routes, permits or escorts depending on the load and states involved.
Where do you provide service?
We coordinate shipments across all lower 48 states. Alaska and Hawaii are not included in this service area.
