Baumanis Timber Contracting operates a full fleet of heavy equipment forestry machines for timber harvesting, site preparation, and infrastructure clearing across British Columbia, Alberta, and Canada. From mechanical falling to log hauling and transport, we deliver the equipment and experienced operators needed to move wood efficiently in challenging terrain.
Mechanical Falling & Processing
- Feller Bunchers — Track-mounted feller buncher units for high-production mechanical falling in clearcut, salvage, and fire-guard construction operations. Our machines handle steep slopes and variable ground conditions with the stability and reach required for safe, efficient harvesting.
- Processors (Stroke Delimbers) — Log processors for roadside or in-block processing, delimbing, bucking, and sorting stems to specification. Stroke delimbers maximize recovery and minimize waste at the landing.
Log Handling & Skidding
- Hoe Chuckers — Excavator-based hoe chucker machines for log sorting, loading, and decking at roadside landings. Precise log handling ensures efficient truck loading and accurate sort management.
- Grapple & Line Skidders — Wheeled and tracked skidder contractor services for extracting timber from the stump to roadside. Grapple skidders for short-distance yarding and line skidders for longer reaches in variable terrain.
Hauling & Transport
Baumanis coordinates logging truck hauling from landing to mill, scaling facility, or dry-land sort. Our hauling services cover short-haul and long-haul routes across BC's forest service road network. For equipment mobilization, we provide low-bed heavy equipment transport to move machines between job sites — feller bunchers, excavators, skidders, and support equipment delivered on schedule.
Land Clearing & Right-of-Way
Beyond timber harvesting, Baumanis provides land clearing and right-of-way clearing services for industrial and infrastructure projects. Our crews and equipment clear corridors for power lines, pipelines, seismic lines, and road construction. We handle everything from initial tree removal and stump grinding to debris management and site grading, delivering cleared ground ready for the next phase of construction.
Equipment & Operators
All heavy equipment is maintained to manufacturer specifications and operated by experienced, certified personnel. Our operators hold the training and field experience to work safely and productively in steep terrain, wet ground, and remote conditions typical of BC forestry operations. Equipment availability and operator readiness are maintained year-round to support both planned harvest schedules and urgent mobilizations.
