Hickory built its name on furniture, and the Catawba Valley still runs on quality hardwood. Timberline supplies the furniture manufacturers, cabinet shops, and flooring contractors of the Hickory–Conover–Newton triangle with kiln-dried White Oak, Red Oak, Walnut, and Maple in furniture and flooring grades — plus the mill-direct Eastern White Pine and yellow pine that keep local residential builders moving.
Building in Hickory
The Hickory market is unusual for the region: alongside a steady residential and light-commercial building scene sits a concentration of woodworking and furniture accounts that judge lumber by the board, not the unit. We hand-grade our domestic hardwood stock, can pull to a cutting list, and run custom flooring and trim profiles for the commercial flooring contractors working the metro's office and retail conversions.

How We Service Hickory
Timberline runs its own delivery fleet out of Black Mountain, NC. We handle job-lot deliveries to sites the standard big-box trucks can’t reach — rural builds, steep mountain drives, and tight commercial schedules. Hickory is roughly about 70 minutes east on I-40, and we coordinate drops around your framing and finish schedule.
Hickory sits 70 minutes east on I-40, and Catawba Valley deliveries roll off the interstate directly into the Hickory–Conover–Newton triangle on US-70 and US-321. Furniture and cabinet accounts get board-count-verified hardwood loads; for shops on tight floors we palletize and shrink-wrap so material comes off the truck shop-ready rather than yard-style.
We also serve the surrounding area, including Conover, Newton, Lenoir, Granite Falls, and Morganton.
Materials for Hickory’s Climate
For Hickory’s woodworking trade the climate question is stability: furniture-grade White Oak, Red Oak, Walnut, and Maple all ship kiln-dried to 6–8% so panels and casework stay flat through humid Catawba Valley summers in and out of climate control. On the residential side, the same humidity argues for Ipe and Garapa decks and back-primed siding — materials that don’t feed on the moisture the way commodity softwood does.
