Timber transportation
Timber transportation refers to the movement of logs or processed wood products from forests or mills to markets or construction sites. This process involves various methods, including trucks, trains, barges, and ships, depending on the distance and type of terrain. Timber must be transported efficiently to minimize costs and environmental impact. Proper handling is essential to prevent damage and ensure quality. The transportation industry plays a vital role in the timber supply chain, supporting construction, furniture making, and other industries that rely on wood products. Sustainable practices are increasingly important to balance economic and environmental concerns.
