Benefits of Buying Hardwood Online and How to get Premium Wood Shipped to your Home

Do you buy hardwood lumber online? If not, you should consider it. Buying hardwood online is a great way to get the wood you need for your various woodworking, DIY, and craft projects without having to go to the lumber yard or big box store. It's also very convenient because it doesn't take up any of your valuable time or gas money! In this post, we'll tell you all about how buying hardwood lumber boards online can benefit your business or your hobbyist woodworking projects and provide tips on how to buy them, so you get premium wood shipped to your home every time.

 

 

When you buy hardwood boards online, you can get premium quality lumber that's pretty much ready to use. For example, at Forest 2 Home, hardwood boards are inspected by trained professionals a minimum of four times before making their way into a box. Most of the trained professionals are woodworkers themselves, so they do not ship hardwood that they would not use in their own woodworking projects, so you know you are getting the best of the best.

Buying hardwood online versus big box stores

There is nothing worse than having an exciting project in mind and driving to the big-box store only to find picked-over, chipped, warped, poor quality, overpriced lumber. Lumber like that may be available, but it does not live up to the incredible woodworking plans you had in mind.

Forest 2 Home has a promise to all the woodworkers, DIYers, crafters, carvers, and craftsmen in the F2H community, that they will receive the best quality lumber on the market, at the best possible price. With Forest 2 Home, there are no questions about what you are getting! There is no need to drive to the big box store to be disappointed by lumber that showcases damage, deep scratches, dents, and end checking (splits). Forest 2 Home lumber is graded four times by industry experts before it is shipped to your home, with free 24/7 shipping. 

Forest 2 Home offers transparency to customers, with specific lengths and widths of each pack included, all equating to 12 board feet per pack. At the big box stores, you pay for the nominal dimensions, not actual. Forest 2 Home provides as much of each board as possible, by only milling down to 15/16" and providing accurate lengths and widths for each board.

"I had to see what all the commotion was about, so I bought a hardwood basics box from Forest 2 Home," customer Will Rooney said. "I’m a big fan of the packaging, recyclable material and the was no wasted space"

Save yourself the time and disappointment of a trip to the box-store, by ordering right from your home (or from the woodshop!) and get premium hardwood shipped right to your home or woodshop.

 

 

The price of buying hardwood lumber online

One of the best things about buying hardwood boards online is the price. You can often get a better deal than if you buy at a store. This is because lumber yards and big box stores have to markup their prices to cover their costs of doing business, such as employees, rent, and utilities. When you buy online, you're cutting out the middleman so you can save some money. One of the benefits of buying Forest 2 Home hardwood boards online is that shipping is always free! Most online hardwood stores charge insane amounts to ship, because of the sheer weight of hardwood, but not at Forest 2 Home. 

Another great thing about buying hardwood boards online is that you can get them delivered right to your home or woodshop door. This eliminates the need for you to transport the lumber yourself, which can be difficult and dangerous. It's also a great option if you don't have a truck or trailer to transport the lumber. Not to mention if you do not have access to premium quality northern hardwood lumber. 

Tips on how to get premium wood shipped to your home

Now that you know all about the benefits of buying hardwood boards online, here are some tips on how to ensure you are buying premium wood products and getting them shipped to your home or woodshop:
  • Look for a supplier, like Forest 2 Home, that has a wide variety of kits and hardwood species
  • Make sure the supplier has a good reputation and is reliable
  • When comparing prices between different suppliers to find the best deal, don't forget to take shipping into consideration
  • Read reviews from other customers to make sure you're getting quality lumber
  • Check the delivery time frame so you know when to expect your order

By following these tips, you can buy hardwood boards online with confidence and get the lumber you need for your woodworking projects shipped right to your home. Thanks for reading!
