Import Tips
• Label shipments clearly as 'rough lodgepole pine' with species origin to facilitate customs inspection
• Provide sawmill invoices detailing cutting method (sawn lengthwise) to distinguish from sliced/peeled
• Watch for moisture content declarations, as high MC could trigger fumigation requirements
