Brokers take 10–20% of every load. Roadside ads are scattershot. JMLogMarket cuts both out — you talk to the actual buyer or seller, you set the price, and nobody takes a piece. We're a Kentucky-based marketplace built for the modern forestry industry. Free to use, easy to post, and built by someone who knows what a Doyle scale is.
