Almquist Lumber is the only place in Humboldt County to find a great selection of hardwood, including local woods and special slabs. It offers an amazing display of wooden items, furniture, wood and lumber of all varieties, and tools galore. It is a cabinet maker's dream and an outstanding place to do business. The staff is helpful and friendly. While sometimes it is difficult to find someone to help, it remains a favorite lumber store with lots of great stuff and unique wood, highly recommended by its customers.
After going to a few different lumber yards in the area, I think Almquist is definentely the best. Staff is knowledgeable and very helpful, and directed me to the best wood for the best price for my needs. Highly recommend.

Best store for woodworking and carpentry I’ve ever been in. Great prices, great service. Excellent choice of hardwoods, local species and plywood. I’ll be back.
