Pulp is really cheap here, but we are clearing about 1 ac with mostly just thick yo-pon and selecting some good pine and a few decent oak out on the front, keeping most for looks. . The big co. would never consider even unloading here. They do not use saws!!! The little guys with the saw hand and a short truck, I had 5-6 small guys say they would do the job and never showed up!
These guys have the equipment, there is a small mill near them that sends some good beams to Japan. They will do OK, but just glad to get it done.
Hardwood here is $55-60 a ton pine around $50 unless really good stuff, then maybe $80 and up. It would be nice to sell off some of this and be ahead, but!!! lol
Back in Missouri I sold off 3 big black walnuts out of a pasture, about 10 years ago for $500 when the market was down, one sorta rotted and the other been hit hard by lightening. Walnut there grows like grass and is everywhere. If you have a big log ( 4-5 ft long even), with NO limbs that piece an be worth big big $$, it also goes to Japan.
