Overview of Business

Today, as it has been for nearly 50 years, Seattle-based Olson Lumber is a full-service lumber and building materials dealer, supplying a broad mix of high quality products to a customer base primarily located in the western United States. Through our extensive dealer sales program our high quality products also find their way all over the country.

Areas of Expertise

Our business revolves around general construction but experience and industry knowledge have lead us in other directions as well. Commercial, industrial, municipal and institutional customers also rely on our broad product mix and knowledgeable sales staff. We also supply niche markets, like the shipyards that require high quality bending Oak for boat frames. Specialty doors and windows, custom cabinet layout and design, computerized deck design and lumber take-offs are some of the products and services we provide.

In addition to conventional lumber and building materiales we stock exotic hardwoods, Cedar rain gutter, air-dried VG Cedar, air-dried VG Doug Fir, Select Structural FOHC timbers and Alaskan Yellow Cedar. We package and ship a complete line of building products to Alaska for a wide variety of customers. In addition, our industry relationships and product knowledge provide our customers with unique solutions for "hard-to-find" requirements.

History

As a family owned business, started by John Olson in 1958, Olson Lumber Company grew to a thriving operation just north of Lake Union in the heart of Seattle. Strong family values, high quality products and a commitment to customer service are principals that helped Olson Lumber Company grow for almost a half a century.

The purchase of Olson Lumber by Dunn Lumber Company in 2004 enables the same core values to carry on while bringing with it almost 100 years of tradition and success. While maintaining the flexibility to provide specialty products and services we gain the strength and support of a major building materials business in the greater Puget Sound area.
