When your timber reaches maturity or thinning becomes necessary, the logging operation you choose determines both your financial return and your forest's future health. Poor harvesting practices damage residual trees, compact soil, and create erosion problems that persist for decades.
Moore Land & Timber operates as a TFA Pro-Logger certified contractor, adhering to Best Management Practices that protect Kilgore's water quality and forest productivity. Whether you're conducting a final harvest before reforestation or a selective thin to release crop trees, the operation employs modern equipment and trained crews that minimize site disturbance. Gregg County's rolling terrain and seasonal wetness require careful planning to avoid rutting and stream sedimentation.
You receive professional logging services that maximize timber value while positioning your land for whatever comes next, whether that's regeneration, development, or wildlife management.
Kilgore's proximity to major mills in Longview and Marshall means your timber has ready market access, but capturing top value requires proper bucking, sorting, and timing. The team coordinates with multiple buyers to ensure competitive bidding for your sawtimber, chip-n-saw, and pulpwood products.
Your harvest plan accounts for tract layout, access limitations, and seasonal restrictions that affect equipment mobility in Gregg County's clay soils. Feller-bunchers and skidders operate on designated trails that protect stream management zones and leave residual stand undamaged. Log decks locate on well-drained sites away from property boundaries and minimize visual impact during active operations.
Pro-Logger certification means regular training in updated BMPs, safety protocols, and environmental compliance. Kilgore landowners benefit from logging operations that meet or exceed Texas Forestry Association standards while maintaining relationships with mills that reward quality timber.
