Alder for Sale
Wood Vendors supplies only the finest Alder Lumber from the Pacific Northwest. Alder is an extremely functional and beautiful wood. It is relatively soft for a hardwood, making it very easy to work with. Because of its grain pattern, alder mimics the look of walnut or cherry, with the proper staining. Currently knotty alder trim and cabinets are very popular in high end homes as well as in cabins. In addition to lumber we also sell alder s4s (surfaced four sides), knotty alder mouldings and alder plywood. We also work directly with a custom alder sawmill that is able to produce alder beams in custom sizes.
At Wood Vendors we only sell hardwoods, so we are able to focus strictly on this market. We bring many years of domestic hardwood lumber supply experience to each and every alder inquiry. Although it is possible to buy directly on our site we encourage anyone considering buying hardwood lumber from us to give us a call at 877-983-6367.

Hey Tom, just wanted to send you a quick thanks for the knotty alder. I've used up about 20% of it now and it's just what I was hoping for. Nice
length and width and a lot of knots, just the look we were going for. I will definitely be ordering from you again. Thanks again. Cory.

Tom, Overall, I am satisfied with the Alder wood I ordered from you. However, I do have one piece that happens to be the largest, that is
approximately 10" wide by 8' that is nearly unusable. It is very warped. I would rate the lumber a 4. If it wasn't for that one piece, I'd rate it 5.
Thanks, Ricki- GA Wood Vendor Note: credited customer for warped board.

Tom, We picked up our 4/4 alder lumber today and are very pleased with it. I have not unloaded it yet but the quality of the lumber appears to be
top drawer. Josh had it neatly packaged with heavy plastic wrap and strapping and had sized the bundle perfectly for my small pickup. Loading went
without a hitch - I'm always surprised at the precision a forklift operator has - and the trip to Newport went very well. Thanks for all your
help. Dave Dempster, South Beach, OR
