Default Lumber mill / dealer in PA

Thanks, it helps, but first hand knowledge would be helpful.
They know they are cheap. The question is at what price?
I am going to trust that they have decent quality wood and make my next
purchase from them. Of course I'll bring my moisture meter and a block
plane if they will let me use both.

I stopped by a lumber mill in Plumsteadville PA today.
They had great prices on air dried lumber.
The name of the lumber mill was Heacock Lumber. I didn't check the lumber
out, since I was on my way to pickup a tool repair.

The prices were too good. Anyone have any experience with them?


If longevitity is any indication of quality then buy from them, Heacock
Lumber mill has been in Plumsteadville for as long as I can remember, At
least 55 years for sure, Possibly longer. They used to have a big saw blade
as their sign. I remember them from my childhood. (I am now 65 years old)
There used to be a covered bridge not far from there and on the other side
of the stone bridge is where we used to go swimming.......
I miss Pennsylvania when the seasons change.
