A very sunny and productive Friday!

Friday was a great day at the sawmill. Everyone was busy, and the sun was out as an added bonus. We wish the warm weather lasted a few days longer. Here are some wonderful pictures we wanted to share!

Recovering After the Storm

After a long and interesting week since Hurricane Sandy, CitiLog Newark is still cleaning up like many others in the area. Some of our shipping containers fell over from the high winds and today we rented a crane to pick them back up again. However, none of this stopped us from working! The Newark Sawmill only lost 1 day of work due to the storm, and even stayed open on Saturday to receive logs. 




Trucks were lining up on the street to drop off loads of logs. Some logs even arrived in unconventional ways, such as dump trucks. When a tree falls, CitiLog hears it!




With the crane that picked up our knocked over shipping containers, our teammates were able to make more progress on our biomass power unit.

Hurricane Sandy

Hope everyone is safe and sound after Hurricane Sandy. The CitiLog Newark Sawmill sustained minimal damage and the office in Pittstown is still without power, but we are all doing well!




CitiLog Newark has received several large loads of logs this week. Many trees have come down from storm damage and are causing hazards in surrounding towns. All downed trees can be taken to CitiLog Newark! We are receiving logs at no charge! For more information, feel free to call us (908)-735-8871.
