During my thirty years of woodworking I’ve always found the search for high quality wood for sale near me a challenge. Sure there are woodworking retailers that have top quality wood – but they also have high markups. Which makes finding a quality, local hardwood lumber supplier a priority.
So, to help your search, in this guide we’ve hand-selected the top places to buy hardwood and reviewed them for key products and services such as kiln dried, live edge, urban recovered wood, surfacing, delivery and much more.
For new and old woodworkers be sure to keep the following in mind as you buy wood for your next project:
- Kiln dried wood is a must for any indoor project
- Most woodworkers prefer “S3S” lumber that is surfaced on three sides and easier to work with
- Learn how to measure in board feet – I’ve caught many novices at bad calculations in lumber yards. Bring a tape measure and check yourself.
- Understood wood grades and the differences to your project
- Call around and compare prices for specific grades (FAS, #1 common, etc.)
Lastly, there are two types of wood retailers: wholesalers that sell only to companies and retailers that sell direct to anyone off the street. To narrow your search we’ll only take a look at retailers.
