At Mississippi Wood Trader, we like to think of ourselves as Atlanta’s In-town Urban Lumberyard. For a little over a year now we have been revamping our image. When we began we started using ideas from the green movement, and we still are very much in tune with keeping up our green ideas and products but we wanted to do more. We wanted to become the place people in Atlanta think of when they want urban, reclaimed, and salvaged lumber and finished lumber products. We have made big strides toward that goal; marketing ourselves as an in-town lumberyard has helped tremendously. We have found that many people like the idea of using trees from their own lots to make new products; if people do not have their own trees to provide, we are here to help. For a while now we have been rescuing trees from the demise of wood chippers to turn them into beautiful products. It has become a big hit and we like to think its because people wanted a to own a piece of urban history, that was both obtainable and relatable. Nothing is greater than telling friends your bar-top came from a tree inside spaghetti junction, right? We understand that this is no new idea, but we feel that reintroducing it to Atlanta will greatly increase the want to use and incorporate salvaged and reclaimed material. So come on by our newly self-titled urban lumberyard and see what we can find for you.
