we are experts in every aspect of forest management
At Murphy Forest Management, we never charge our clients to walk their forest and make recommendations. Call us anytime or send us an email to request a meeting. We will gladly provide you with several references from landowners just like yourself.
OUR SERVICES INCLUDE:
LoggingHarvesting your timber is the best way to promote the health of your forest. We will handle every aspect of the timber harvesting operation starting with designating which trees will be cut. Then we will determine the type of logging equipment to use, and finally sell each log on your behalf for the highest prices in the region. Currently sugar maple, white ash and soft maple are in high demand. |
Management plans/ timber trespass Evaluating your timber for its ecological and financial integrity is the best way to develop your management strategy and will ensure a positive return on your investment. We also conduct stump cruises to determine the standing timber value lost to an illegal harvest in the Adirondacks, Tug Hill, Mohawk Valley, or Finger Lakes region. |
timber stand improvement (TSI) AND REFORESTATIONEnsuring our forests are healthy and productive for future generations is the goal of Murphy Forest Management. Removing unwanted or invasive vegetation while promoting or planting new trees can greatly improve your forest. We are also licensed to apply herbicides and insecticides. |
We work harder to make you more money
Our prices are determined through several different metrics. Call or email anytime to request a quote.
Timber HarvestingThere are no upfront costs to marking your trees and designing your timber harvest. We are paid when we sell your logs or standing timber and we charge fixed rates for our operations. This ensures that our clients get the most money for their logs. Every log gets paid for before it leaves one of our landings and we provide scale slips for every load of logs we produce for you.
|
Management Plans/ Timber TrespassCollecting accurate data on the growth and composition of your forest is the first step towards determining its fair market value and best management strategy. We charge for timber appraisals and timber trespass inventories through a fixed cost for large projects, or hourly rates for small ones.
|
Timber Stand Improvement Timber stand improvement (TSI) and reforestation projects are priced on a per day, per tree or per acre basis. We will work with you to develop an effective way to remove and reduce interfering or invasive vegetation while staying within your budget. In all cases we guarantee the effectiveness of our completed TSI projects.
