Sawmill
Brett Janzen is listed as a sawmill at 911 County Rd B, Viroqua, WI 54665, in Vernon County. If you came looking for a sawmill near me, this is the Viroqua end of that question: the address is published, your own is not, so the haul is yours to measure. The listing is published by Wisconsin Primary Forest Product Mills (Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources); AXE USA republishes it as it stands and adds nothing to it.
These are published facility records, not offers to buy. Some mills take delivered logs but do not buy standing timber. No listing establishes current buying, prices or gate hours; call before hauling.
Trees still on your land? Start with the sale guide. If you own or are authorized to sell the tract, you can request bids for the standing timber; the directory is not a bid from a mill.
Read the standing timber guide →Request bids for my tract →Browse the published listings and check the species, address and contact source. Call to confirm the mill is operating, accepts your load and can receive it before you travel.

Claim this mill’s listing →A sawmill breaks logs down into boards. Sawlogs are graded on diameter, straightness and defect before they reach the headrig, so this is the outlet that pays for stem quality rather than tonnage - and the slabs, edgings and sawdust it makes are what feed the chip, shavings and mulch trade around it.
The record lists 7 materials it accepts: cherry, hickory, maple, oak, walnut, pine and softwood.
The source names 5 product lines coming off this site: lumber, timbers, sawdust, firewood and custom sawing.
No agency document says whether this facility is buying today, what it pays, the minimum load it will take, or how far it will haul. AXE USA does not check any mill's licence, insurance, ability, or whether it is still in business - this page republishes a public record and nothing more.
Reading this listing
The record has this facility taking cherry, hickory, maple, oak, walnut, pine, and softwood, and species decides more of what a load is worth than the gate it goes through. The hickory guide covers how that wood is graded, the defects that pull it down a grade, and what it is normally cut for. The reference list adds a row on black cherry and hard maple - what buyers take each for, and the catch, though the source never narrows maple to a single species.
It is one of 8 facilities listed in Vernon County, which is where a search for a sawmill near me starts if your ground is in that county. The Vernon County page has every one of them side by side with what the county as a whole buys and makes, and all 211 Wisconsin listings run across 63 counties - which is the map that decides whether a load leaves your gate for twenty minutes or two hours.
Anybody searching for a sawmill near me needs more than one gate. If this one will not take your wood, the nearest other listings are Leer Wood Industry in Westby, 7 miles away, Kickapoo Country Milling in La Farge, 10 miles away and Miller Hardwoods in La Farge, 11 miles away. Distances are straight lines between the coordinates the sources published - not road miles, and not a statement that anybody is buying.
None of this says whether the gate is open or what the load would fetch - no agency document records that. A price comes out of a sale run properly: the landowner's guide to selling timber takes the steps in the order they happen, and sealed bidding puts one tract in front of several buyers at once instead of taking the first number offered.

Listed facilities statewide
Across Vernon County the sources list 8 sawmill listings. A facility can be listed under more than one of those, so the numbers overlap rather than adding up.
Fields are never merged between documents: every line above came from this one record, so a listing from a source that publishes no phone number stays without one.

This page was written from Wisconsin Primary Forest Product Mills (Wisconsin Department of Natural Resources). Sign for it and you can fix what the record got wrong - the phone, the hours, the address - and tell the landowners reading it what species and lengths you are buying right now. No agency document has ever said that, which is why they have no way to know whether it is worth calling you. There is no queue, nothing to pay, and nothing held back until you do.
This listing comes from an agency document. Mills close and move between publications. If you know this one is shut, has moved, or the number is wrong, tell us and we will check it.
This listing says where Brett Janzen is and what the agency records it as taking. It does not say what it will pay. Put the tract out for sealed bids and let the buyers around Viroqua answer that themselves.
