From wilderness to your door, HWP delivers the highest quality, thick stock lumber possible. Not only do we have what you need, we can deliver it in the quantities you need, when you need it, to any location in the contiguous 50 states.

People often ask how we are able to produce such high quality thick stock lumber in the sizes and quantities that we do. Half of the answer to that question is a simple matter of high quality timber. We scour the midwest for the best, and biggest, timber we can possibly find. When necessary, we even harvest the trees ourselves with special equipment designed just for the task. The other half of the answer to the question is our modern production facilities and the great people that run them.

Below is a pictorial story tracing the path of some of our thick stock lumber from forest to quality product.
