THARP PALLET CO, INC

The record has this facility taking cottonwood, hardwood, pine, softwood, and oak, and species decides more of what a load is worth than the gate it goes through. The source stops at oak without naming a species, so the Southern yellow pine and white oak guides are where to start: how that wood is graded, the defects that pull it down a grade, and what it is normally cut for. The reference list adds a row on eastern cottonwood - what buyers take it for, and the catch.

It is the only facility the Arkansas sources list in Independence County, which is worth knowing before you plan a haul: the next gate is in another county. The Independence County section of the state page shows it standing alone, and all 175 Arkansas listings cover 56 counties.

Anybody searching for a sawmill near me needs more than one gate. If this one will not take your wood, the nearest other listings are ARKANSAS WOOD SOLUTIONS INC. in Knoxville and MIDWEST STAVE EXCHANGE in Dennard. Distances are straight lines between the coordinates the sources published - not road miles, and not a statement that anybody is buying.

None of this says whether the gate is open or what the load would fetch - no agency document records that. A price comes out of a sale run properly: the landowner's guide to selling timber takes the steps in the order they happen, and sealed bidding puts one tract in front of several buyers at once instead of taking the first number offered.
