Our operators are proficient in the use of skyline winches, a specialised technique that enables us to efficiently extract timber from even the most daunting locations.
Skidder Extracting
Douglas Timber Harvesting’s team utilise Skidders with precision. These powerful machines are used to drag harvested timber from the forest to the processing area and ensure that the timber is transported without damage.

We also offer a range of tree surgery services to address issues like disease or damage, ensuring that forests survive for years to come.
