Understanding Forwarders

Forwarders are a critical part of modern forestry operations. Unlike skidders, which drag logs across the ground, forwarders carry cut timber entirely off the forest floor in a rear-mounted bunk. This method reduces soil disturbance, protects regrowth, and allows for faster, cleaner log retrieval over long distances. Designed for remote and rugged environments, these machines excel in both environmental care and productivity.

Types of Forwarders

Our listings include a wide range of forwarders to suit different forestry applications. Compact forwarders are perfect for selective logging and tight spaces, offering agility and low ground pressure. Larger forwarders are built for full-scale harvests and tough terrain, boasting high payload capacities, boom-mounted cranes, and advanced load-handling systems. Many forwarders today come with features like articulated steering, automatic leveling, and operator-friendly cabs for all-day comfort and efficiency.
