Parton Lumber Company was founded by Verno Parton in 1948, nearly a century after his family first settled in Rutherford, NC and established itself in the wood industry. Three generations since its first customer, Parton Lumber remains a staple of Appalachian lumber production and is now owned and operated by grandsons Furman and Patrick Parton. To stay successful for the past 65+ years, Parton Lumber has had to evolve several times, adapting product offerings and services to meet the ever-changing needs of the wood industry.

Sustainability Report

Parton Lumber is constantly looking for ways to maximize yield of resources so that waste is to a minimum. Logs are sawn with band mills having a very narrow kerf. Slabs are chipped for the paper industry. Sawdust fuels burn efficient boilers. Planer shavings are accumulated and marketed. Bark is ground into mulch for landscape businesses.

Products Report

Located in the heart of the Appalachian hardwood region, Parton Lumber has ready access to the choice hardwoods and white pine growing on the highest elevations in the Eastern United States. The colder growing climate results in closer annual growth rings that produce finer textured lumber. Parton Lumber is a major producer of high quality Appalachian hardwood, selling rough and surfaced hardwoods to small companies as well as major corporations. Nature provides the climate for some of the world's most beautiful woods.

The lady receptionist who just answered the phone was beyond rude. I couldn't even ask a thorough question without being rushed off the phone. Poor customer service

ITS DOWN IN A HOLE FOR SURE. THE TRUCK PARKING AREA IS FREAKING STUPID. ITS LITERALLY A STEEP STRAIGHT UP HILL. SO WHEN YOU TAKE OFF WITH 80,000 POUNDS, YOU BEST KNOW WHAT YOUR A DOING. OTHER THAN THAT ITS A DECENT PLACE.

Great place to work. Clean, safe, and efficient with hard working, honest and friendly people who are meeting the world's need for lumber products. I am not easily impressed and rarely give reviews but felt these folks deserve a shout out.
