Stump To Dump Logging for over 40 years

Holbrook Dyson Logging

HDL is an award-winning logging company on Vancouver Island, BC, Canada. Our expertise in west coast logging is unparalleled. 

HOLBROOK DYSON LOGGING IS A STUMP-TO-DUMP INDEPENDENT LOGGING CONTRACTOR ON NORTHERN VANCOUVER ISLAND

HDL employs approximately 50 people and contractors to conduct falling, yarding, loading, hauling, road maintenance, roadside brushing, and road construction operations. Our company is also capable of dry land sorting and log booming. In addition to its contract with Western Forest Products, HDL harvests timber and constructs roads for other licensees and successful bids directly with BC Timber Sales.

HDL was incorporated in 1979 to provide log-harvesting services for Canadian Forest Products’ Englewood Division (Canfor), on TFL 37. Holbrook Dyson Logging changed ownership in 2003 through a share purchase by the Alm-Wood Group. This group has considerable experience ranging from timber development to log marketing on the coast of British Columbia. 

Since Western Forest Product’s takeover of TFL 37 in 2006, Holbrook Dyson Logging has also become part of Western Forest Product’s Chain of Custody Sustainable Forestry (SFI) certification. In addition, Holbrook Dyson Logging complies with Western Forest Products and BC Timber Sales’ Environmental Management Systems (EMS). Holbrook Dyson Logging is a SAFE Certified Company with the BC Forest Safety Council.

Through its relationship with Canfor and then Western Forest Products (WFP), Holbrook Dyson Logging meets the International Standards Organization (ISO 14001) and the Canadian Standards Association (CSA Z809) requirements.

HDL also performs harvesting and road-building services for Atli Resources LP, a Namgis First Nation tenure in the Nimpkish Valley.

HDL respectfully acknowledges that our operations are located on the traditional territories of the Namgis, Mowachaht/Muchalaht, K’ómoks, Tlowitsis, We Wai Kum, and Kwakiutl First Nations.

🌺 Today, we pause to remember.

On this Remembrance Day, we honor the courage and sacrifice of those who served and continue to serve. Their bravery has paved the way for the freedoms we enjoy and uphold today.

At Holbrook Dyson Logging, we recognize the resilience and dedication of veterans, many of whom work among us in the forests, fields, and offices, bringing that same commitment to every day.
