western red cedar source - mound - 04-02-2016
Looking to source a large amount of western red cedar - 8' lengths of 2x4s & 2x6 plus a whole lotta 1x6 to build a 310' fence.
any recommendations? I don't mind paying to have it shipped.

Try contacting Oregon Lumber. 1-800-824-5671 I have dealt with them sourcing Western Red Cedar and I've also used their really great flooring materials. If they don't have what you're after, they'll direct you. I realize this is across the country, but I hope it helps.

The finest Western red cedar I have ever seen was from Requarth Lumber I don't have a clue about their ability to ship, but their prices were just a small amount higher than the big box crap, and the wood was perfect. All you could do is call and ask. 12x12x28' down to little sticks, and everybody in between.

Avoid scams, deal locally Beware wiring (e.g. Western Union), cashier checks, money orders, shipping.

thanks! Actually that might be helpful for a new boat dock I'm about to build for my parents in Syracuse, that's a good deal.. 5/4 material is too thick for my fence though and not enough of it

Mound,
Maybe you could put some feelers out to see if anyone else close to you is looking for western red cedar. If you end up getting it shipped, the more bulk the better the deal. For everyone, and shipping gets split between many.

not a bad idea!
