FAQ
How much do you charge to travel?
Our current travel rate is $1 per mile from Galesburg outside of Knox County, IL.
No we do not bring other workers besides the sawyer.
Do you provide other workers beside yourself?
Do you sell green lumber?
Yes will sell green lumber, but we will explain in great detail regarding the drying process and other outdoor projects our lumber can be used for.
Do you buy logs?
Do you cut down or remove trees?
We do not offer tree removal at this time.
We are not in the market for purchasing logs.
Do you barter for sawmill services for share of the lumber?
Unfortunately, no.
Will I save money by having my logs milled?
Yes, I like to say that using my services will get you 10X or greater investment then buying lumber. It's not always about the dollar at Urban Milling. We like it to be an experience. We love hearing stories of how my grandfather made this fence from an oak tree he played on as a child, we want to be a part of continuing to pass those stories through generations.
How far will you travel?
We offer portable sawmill services to clients located within 60 miles of Knox County, IL. If your project is outside of this area, let us know. We might be able to help! Each milling job is unique— based on site accessibility, lumber type, and desired dimensions— I discuss specifics on the phone before any milling takes place. My cell is 309-368-7437 and you can call/text me anytime. You can see examples of milling on my IG or FB page.
