We help landowners plan and execute timber harvests that protect streams, soil, and access roads while delivering strong mill prices across saw logs, chip-n-saw, and pulpwood.
Creative Trucking & Logging, LLC — rooted in Macon, Georgia.
We began as a two-rig hauling crew and grew into a full logging outfit serving farm families, private landowners, and local mills across Middle Georgia. Our goal is simple: leave a tract cleaner, safer, and more valuable for the next rotation.
Every project starts with a walk-through and a plain-English harvest plan. We flag SMZs, verify tract boundaries, and map entrances to minimize disturbance. Technology supports the work: GPS mapping, digital load tickets, and maintenance logs for high uptime.
We merchandize aggressively — separating saw timber, chip-n-saw, and pulpwood to capture value by product class. Day-to-day communication with mills keeps trucks turning and prices current.
Compliance is standard, not a selling point. We follow Georgia BMPs, stabilize water bars, seed exposed soil where needed, and photograph the close-out for your records.
Whether you manage 40 acres or 400, we align the harvest with your objectives: thinning to unlock growth, final harvest to reset a stand, storm cleanup, or roadwork for easier access.
Three focused offerings that cover planning, production, and the path to market.
We design cut plans to unlock growth, improve wind firmness, or safely reset a stand. Feller-bunchers, skidders, and loaders are sized for efficient production with minimal soil impact.
SMZs are flagged; creek crossings are avoided or bridged. Water bars go in before we leave.
You receive a straightforward schedule with daily production reports per product class.
At the deck we separate saw logs, chip-n-saw, and pulpwood; loads are ticketed digitally and tracked by tract. Tight mill coordination keeps turnarounds fast and cash flow steady.
Drivers follow verified routes and scale-house standards. Safety checks and tie-down audits are routine.
We chase blended price per ton — not just more tons — to protect landowner value.
We repair entrances, stabilize skid trails, and build water turnouts. Decks are flattened and debris windrowed to speed site prep for replanting.
Need seedlings and a planter? We connect you with trusted nurseries and crews, then coordinate timing.
The aim: leave access better than we found it and the site ready for the next stand.
Clear value, clear communication, clean close-outs.
We merchandize to capture premiums for saw timber while moving pulp efficiently — producing stronger blended returns instead of chasing a single number.
SMZ flagging, stabilized outlets, and seeded slopes are photographed and logged, protecting your land — and your paperwork — for audits and replanting.
Preventive maintenance keeps iron running when weather windows open. Less downtime means shorter timelines and fewer surprises.
Three simple steps — and you can expect updates at each stage.
1Walk-Through & Plan. We tour the tract, flag SMZs, map access, and align on goals and timing. You receive a concise plan with a schedule.
2Cut, Sort, Haul. Crews produce clean decks; we sort by product class and coordinate daily with mills. Digital tickets track every load.
3Close-Out & Next Steps. Stabilization, photos, and a summary of loads and payments. We connect you with seedling suppliers and planters if replanting.
Stewardship that pays — healthy forests and healthy ledgers.
We operate on generational timelines. That means respecting buffers, keeping mud off public roads, documenting the work, and leaving access better than we found it. Healthy stands reach higher-value classes faster when treated right — and that’s good business for everyone.
Share a few details and we’ll schedule a walk-through.
“We want to thin a 20-year pine stand.” · “Storm damage in creek bottom hardwood.” · “Entrance needs repair; can you stabilize it?” · “Not sure if it’s time to cut — would like an evaluation.”
