About blades
A blade typically lasts 2–3 hours of milling.
Dirty logs, embedded gravel, sand, or old metal in the wood can shorten blade life. Species also makes a difference. We'll always be upfront when a blade needs changing, and safety is always our main priority.

LOG TRANSPORT & LUMBER PICKUP
We do not offer pickup or delivery but can help arrange.
Getting logs to our yard can add cost depending on distance and volume. We're happy to talk through logistics with you or your arborist — and can arrange hauling if needed and/or provide a quote.
We don't offer delivery, but we can load most trailers or flatbed trucks using our loader.
