OUR STORY
Rooted in Central Illinois.
EST. 2014
SAWMILLING DONE RIGHT
Heartland Sawmill started with a simple idea: bring quality sawmilling services directly to the people who need them. What began as a guy with a manual bandsaw mill cutting his own trees for personal use has grown into a trusted local business serving Central Illinois and the surrounding areas with a portable, hydraulic sawmill. The Lord has blessed the business and we now have over a decade of experience milling a wide variety of hardwoods, and we know how to handle most any job, big or small. Our faithful commitment to quality, sustainability, and personal service has made us the go-to sawmill for homeowners, farmers, woodworkers, and contractors alike.
Whether you need us to come to your property to mill fallen trees, storm-damaged timber, or hardwood logs, or you'd prefer to drop off your logs at our location, we're here to help turn your raw timber into something lasting and beautiful.
We also stock a rotating inventory of freshly milled lumber in a variety of species, available for purchase at our location. From white oak and black walnut to live edge slabs and dimensional boards, we've got quality local hardwood ready for your next project.
