About Upcoming timber auctions

This is the calendar of advertised public timber sales, state and federal, that have been noticed but not yet auctioned. Each entry carries the auction date, the offered volume and appraised minimum where the notice publishes them, and the species where reported. The minimum per unit is the appraised minimum divided by the offered volume, in the sale's own unit: MBF for state and BLM sales, CCF for Forest Service sales, tons for per-ton sales. Each sale name links to the agency's own notice or sale listing for the full terms. An advertised sale is a public notice of intent to auction; after the auction its result is listed on its region page. The site does not advise which sales to bid. The coverage table shows how many sales each tracked agency currently advertises. Coverage is checked when the calendar is built: if an agency's own site lists advertised sales but none are parsed, the build fails rather than ship a calendar that reads as no sales coming up when the truth is a parsing gap.

The busiest week on the docket is the week of Nov 16, 2026, with 27 auctions. Across the 23 advertised MBF sales that publish a minimum, the median appraised minimum is $263/MBF; winning bids at recent auctions have run above their minimums by the amounts on the public timber board.

Common questions

When is the next public timber auction?

The next public timber auctions are on Nov 5, 2026: Cracker Decks (US Forest Service), Deer Decks (US Forest Service) and Rip Bd (US Forest Service). The table lists every advertised sale the site tracks, soonest first, through Jan 27, 2027, and the iCalendar feed puts each auction date in a calendar app.

How do I bid on a public timber sale?

Through the selling agency, not this site. Each sale name in the table links to the agency's notice or sale listing, where it publishes its bidding terms, deposit and auction method. How public timber auctions work walks through the steps, and how Washington DNR timber sale auctions work covers the state that advertises the most sales here.

What is the minimum bid on a timber sale?

The appraised minimum is the lowest bid the agency will accept, set by its own appraisal of the timber. Bids at or above it compete, and the highest qualified bid generally wins. How stumpage is appraised explains how each agency sets it.

Where do the results go after the auction?

Once the agency posts the result, the sale moves off this calendar and onto its region page, with the winning bid, price per unit, bidder count and premium over the minimum. The newest results are ranked on the public timber board.
