Is there a Red oak price? Not one we publish. Timber value for any species depends on product (sawtimber, veneer, pulpwood, chip-n-saw), grade, stumpage vs delivered, the log rule and local market. Commercial price series are licence-restricted. Take a current price for Red oak from your forester or mill and use the calculator.
No price here. This site does not publish a US timber price. Current price series (TimberMart-South and state or university stumpage reports) are copyrighted or licence-restricted, so we cannot republish them. The figures on this page are federal, public-domain forest inventory from the USDA Forest Service FIA — area, volume, growth and removals, not prices. To put a value on wood, take a price from your forester, mill or consulting service and use the calculator.
