What this facility is
Post & pole plant
A post and pole plant peels roundwood to size and usually treats it against rot. It wants straight, small-diameter stems of consistent taper - wood a sawmill cannot break down profitably but a fence or utility line can use whole.
What it takes
Softwood is the only material the source records this facility as accepting.
What comes off it
The source names one product line coming off this site: poles.
No agency document says whether this facility is buying today, what it pays, the minimum load it will take, or how far it will haul. AXE USA does not check any mill's licence, insurance, ability, or whether it is still in business - this page republishes a public record and nothing more.
Reading this listing
What it means for your timber
The source goes no further than softwood here, which is a starting point rather than a specification. The species guides take the trees one at a time - what each is cut for, how it is graded, and where the line between pulpwood and sawtimber falls.
It is one of 5 facilities listed in Crawford County, which is where a search for a sawmill near me starts if your ground is in that county. The Crawford County section of the state page has every one of them side by side, and all 302 Michigan listings run across 73 counties - which is the map that decides whether a load leaves your gate for twenty minutes or two hours.
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 Rustic Rails, LLC in Sterling, 49 miles away, Nevill Supply, Inc. in Clare, 51 miles away and Cherry Creek Post, LLC in Evart, 54 miles away. 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.

Fields are never merged between documents: every line above came from this one record, so a listing from a source that publishes no phone number stays without one.
