Types of Timber and Lumber for Transport:

Raw Timber Logs: These are freshly cut trees, usually long and heavy. They require trucks with specialized equipment to ensure secure and balanced transportation.

Processed Lumber: After timber undergoes initial processing, it turns into lumber – planks, beams, and boards. These are usually more manageable in size but can still be hefty.
