Import Tips

• Test for natural oils/content in cedar to ensure no chemical treatments shifting to 4418 painted/stained wood

• Declare exact length/diameter per rod for statistical suffixes; bundles over 100 rods may need aggregation

• Comply with CITES if any endangered conifer species misrepresented as cedar
