Question. Do y’all typically get a notification from Rayonier prior to them cutting timber on your properties?

I got word a minute ago that the timber company was unloading cutters in my area and one guy mentioned to my neighbor that they would be coming into my lease, but no specific details other than that they hoped all the stands and stuff were off. The place is in dire need of a thinning but a little heads up would have been nice. Especially with opening weekend coming up and family planning to visit.

Called them and left two voicemails, maybe they will call back but from previous experience I don’t expect it.

I seriously doubt it. Had few acquaintances who had their lease sell and weren't given a notice with them. Seems to happen with most of 'em unfortunately.

Weyerhaeuser has sent email notifications to us before. Not sure on Rayonier.

From my past experiences Rayonier gives no notice and really could care less if it is hunting season or not when they are ready to cut timber and make money. No doubt it sucks to pay for a Hunting lease and then have the land owner come in an cut timber when You paid them for the right to hunt property.

Many of deer have been laid to rest from a skidder driver…..just sayin

It seems like that’s the only time they cut timber is during hunting season. I was hunting on our lease last year during rifle season and the started unloading and cutting about 200 yards from me, no notice. Got down and started gathering up everyone’s stands and cameras

RMS sends emails. Got one last week about 150 acres that they say they plan to cut between now and the end of 2025.

Heck no and Rayonier trashes the roads and never fixed them. Our President put in multiple requests and they never did anything. Fortunately RMS bought our biggest tract and they have been the exact opposite of Rayonier. Wonderful to deal with.
