At Urstadt Land and Timber, we provide dependable forestry consulting grounded in field experience, operational knowledge, and technical precision. With a background in forest engineering, silviculture, and direct logging support, we help plan and execute harvests that are efficient, productive, and aligned with both buyer and operator needs. Our work spans timber evaluation, layout design, reforestation coordination, and long-term forest management. Whether navigating permitting, seedling logistics, or mill specifications, we deliver accurate, clearly communicated plans that support sound decisions at every stage. We’re comfortable in difficult terrain, and our plans are made to hold up under real-world conditions.

Forestry Support Services

Timber Cruising, Evaluation, and Appraisal:
We specialize in timber evaluation with an emphasis on accurate cruise data. We’re experienced with sealed-bid lump sum sales for Washington DNR, ODF-marketed sales, as well as our private landowner operations and industry ground across the Northwest, Northern California and Southeast Alaska.

We tailor cruise designs to reflect forest structure, terrain, and log product variability, balancing statistical rigor with real-world intuition. Our assessments factor in production value, hidden defect, logging conditions, and site limitations to generate results that hold up to the cut-out.

Timber Harvest Planning and Sale Layout Services:
We provide cut block layout, boundary marking, and harvest plan documentation tailored to terrain and equipment constraints. Road locations are planned to reduce processing costs, align with efficient skidding to support favorable log flow. Our focus is on practical plans that support clear direction, logging production, and achieve regulatory compliance.

Reforestation and Silvicultural Services:
We bring great experience in stand establishment and silvicultural management, with a clear understanding of the cost-benefit considerations behind each treatment. In addition to technical planning and oversight, we can provide field labor for planting, seed cone collection, pre-commercial thinning, and fuels reduction using skilled crews with a strong track record on public and private contracts throughout the region.
