A fair, open market for standing timber

WoodBid connects forest owners and mills with verified buyers through transparent tenders and live auctions — so every lot finds its true value.

For generations, timber changed hands through closed negotiations and a handful of relationships. We thought the forest deserved a real market.

What we stand for

Three things we won't compromise on

Radical transparency

Floor, ceiling and step prices are shown before bidding opens. Every bid is timestamped and ranked. Sellers see the full field; buyers always see the leading price.

A verified market

Every account is a real, funded business. Documents are reviewed before anyone is cleared to bid, so a winning bid is a bid that can actually settle.

Forestry that lasts

Chain-of-custody and certified-origin lots carry their provenance with them — buyers can trace where the timber came from and how it was managed.
