We offer a broad range of forestry services including:
Inventory - Inventory is provided for timber buyers, sawmills, and other consultants.
Appraisals - Timber appraisals can be an important part of timber management. Timber appraisals are used to determine the current value of standing timber. This value can be used in determining timing of timber sale, establishing timber basis, and/ of obtaining value in an estate.
Forest - Wildlife Management Plans - Management plans are essential for managing timber or wildlife habitat. Due to timber/ habitat being managed over a long period of time, management plans allow goals to be written down along with detailed prescriptions to accomplish those goals. Forestry management plans are also required to qualify for Present Use Evaluation for deferred county property taxes.
Timber Sales - Timber sales are a major part of timber management. This can be the end of a rotation or an intermediate step in the rotation. Selling timber is the time in the timber management that provides income. For most landowners this is a once in a lifetime event. Having a consultant conducting a timber sale is important to get the maximum value for the timber managed for. Blanton Forestry will locate timber sale boundaries, conduct a timber appraisal, provide an estimated market value, send out timber sale notices to prospective buyers, conduct the timber sale, and oversee the timber harvest.
