Our operations
Tanner Lumber Co. LLC was founded in Elkins, WV, in May 1984 by Jim and Helen
Tanner, pictured at right. The company began as a wholesale hardwood lumber company
and has expanded to two distribution yards in West Virginia and Pennsylvania.
The first purchase was in 1988 when Tanner Lumber purchased
the Herman Lumber Co. which included a distribution yard in Portage, PA. We grew
to open a second facility in Elkins, WV, in 1998.
 Tanner
Lumber has incorporated both tractor-trailers and straight trucks that
operate out of each of the yards. This assures a level of customer
service that today's market dictates.
