Northeast Georgia Timber Company

My son had a smaller acreage timber job in order to build his home. The project involved some clearing as well as select harvesting. Ed and his crew took care of the project in a very professional manner. Great to work with.

Our family has a homesite in Winder, Georgia we inherited from a relative that was in need of repair. We contacted Ed, and although this was not really what his company specializes in he went out of his way to help us find the right fit. He got us in contact with a smaller logging service that did an excellent job at an affordable price. We recommend his company whether it’s timber harvest or real estate sales.

I worked with Ed Baxter on a timber harvesting project in Jackson County in 2019. I have nothing but great things to say about Ed and his team. He is professional, prompt, communicative, thorough, and forward thinking. He treats your property as if it were his own, and he takes great care in his work. I would use him and his team again and again as he made my life much simpler and more enjoyable. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need additional information.

I recommend Ed’s company to a personal friend who had a timber harvesting operation that we required some extra detail work to preserve the property for a future sale. You’re always nervous when recommending a company to a personal friend, but the end result was better than I expected. The Adams were well pleased and that made it good for me.

WC Smith Timberland handled a thinning for one of my high profile clients with professionalism and discretion. Their timber prices offered were competitive, and their crew knew how to log without damaging the roads or crop tress.

We Contracted with WC Smith Timberland Services Winter of 2017. Im a single mother and this was my first experience of marketing timber. I had taken several bids. Wasnt sure what to expect as I decided to sell the timber by the ton. The final payment exceeded my expectations. After the harvest was completed, and all equipment was moved I had one issue about my entrance. Ed had his team come out immediately and resolve it. I was sure I would never see them again as it would be diffucult for me to hold them accountable. As a single parent living in rural Madison County, I cant express the assurance they provided at all levels of our transactions. I reccommend them to anyone looking for top dollar and quality service with their timber harvest plans.
