Sawdust
We produce sawdust as a natural by-product of our milling process. While most people think of sawdust as simply waste, it actually has a wide variety of uses across different industries. From animal bedding to renewable energy, our sawdust serves a range of practical applications, providing both value and sustainability.
Our sawdust costs $7.50 per cubic yard and we are happy to help load it with our on-site skid steer. It’s available for purchase by businesses and individuals who need a reliable, eco-friendly material for their operations.
Who Buys Our Sawdust?
Poultry Farmers: One of the largest groups who purchase our sawdust is poultry farmers. Sawdust is a highly effective bedding material for chickens, turkeys, and other poultry. It helps absorb moisture, control odors, and create a comfortable and hygienic environment for the animals. Our sawdust is clean, dry, and free of chemicals, making it ideal for use in poultry houses and barns.
Equine Industry: Horse owners and equestrian facilities also use sawdust as bedding for stables and barns. Its absorbent nature helps keep stalls dry and odor-free, promoting a healthy environment for horses. It’s also gentle on the animals’ joints and hooves.
Animal Care & Small Mammals: Beyond poultry and horses, many other animal care industries, including zoos, pet stores, and small animal farms, purchase sawdust for use as bedding for rabbits, guinea pigs, and other small mammals. It’s a soft, absorbent, and affordable option for creating a comfortable habitat for pets.
Agriculture & Landscaping: Sawdust is also used in agriculture and landscaping. It can be spread as mulch to help retain moisture in soil, suppress weed growth, and add organic matter to garden beds. Additionally, sawdust can be used as a soil amendment in certain conditions to improve soil structure.
Renewable Energy (Pellet Production): Sawdust is a key ingredient in the production of wood pellets, a popular form of renewable energy. Many biomass energy companies buy sawdust to use in pelletizing processes, where it’s compressed into fuel for heating and energy production. Sawdust has a high calorific value, making it an efficient and eco-friendly energy source.
