We won’t let great
hardwoods go to waste.
California Urban Lumber mills and sells lumber from
trees cut by local municipalities
or tree service companies in Northern California.
All trees were removed when necessitated
by natural mortality, disease or insect damage, new construction, root damage
to sidewalks or foundations, wild fire control and storm damage. We never buy rainforest lumber.
Currently there is a strong movement
throughout the United States
to better utilize urban lumber to keep it from going to waste. California Urban Lumber is proud to mill
local, urban timber into high quality lumber, from over 25 different species.
We provide beautiful,
local, and often rare wood for contractors, cabinet makers, artisans and
furniture makers. As an example: In 2008, JFC Construction, Inc. in Martinez, CA used over
fifteen thousand board feet of lumber milled by Cal Urban Lumber in the Alviso Adobe Community Park
project in Pleasanton, CA.
California Urban Lumber is devoted to reducing our carbon footprint by decreasing the need to transport wood from distant
forests. We also air dry our lumber versus kiln drying, reducing the
consumption of fossil fuels.
