Is A Portable Sawmill Really Portable?

Is a portable sawmill really portable?  Well, that all depends on what type and size you buy.  Honestly, anything can be portable, if you have the right vehicle and trailer with which to haul it.  However, some portable sawmills are definitely easier to use than others.

The smallest portable sawmills can often be easily towed by a pickup truck.  That is, of course, if you have the right type of hauling trailer.  Luckily, many portable sawmills are sold along with the proper hauling trailers.

In fact, some models can even be taken apart.  Their parts can be put in the bed of the truck and driven to anyplace that the pickup truck can go.  That eliminates the need for a trailer.  Of course, it will be up to you to reassemble the portable sawmill at your destination and pull it apart again when the job is done.

Larger portable sawmills are not as easy to haul.  So, you may be a bit limited, as far as where you can take them.  However, what they lack in portability they make up for in speed, strength and durability.

If you plan to bring most of the wood to the sawmill, a larger model might be perfect for you.  Many of them are fully hydraulic.  Some even come with hydraulic log lifters.  In fact, all of the best production portable sawmills are larger, more heavy duty models.
