New Delivery Trucks

The quality of our delivery service at Highland Hardwoods is always top priority. The customers we serve have come to expect prompt delivery service for the lumber they order from us, as they have critical deadlines to meet on their end. Reliability and dependability are essential to our customers, and our goal is to be "on time, every time." As the lead times for making deliveries has grown shorter and shorter in recent years, we have had to adapt to the "just in time" environment that has become very commonplace in our industry.

To accommodate our customers delivery needs, it is imperative that our equipment is in top operating condition all the time. To this end, we recently upgraded our fleet by purchasing two new tractor/trailers for making commercial lumber deliveries. We feel this was a necessary investment in order to maintain the integrity of our delivery service.

We currently maintain a fleet of 5 delivery trucks, which include a 2007 Volvo and a 2007 Western Star Tractor Trailer, 2 Mack Straight Trucks and a 2004 Ford F550 Flooring Delivery Truck. All our vehicles are curtain side to ensure that our lumber is protected from the elements at all times. We offer an experienced team of friendly and courteous drivers who are willing and able to provide the best service possible to our valued customers.

Highland Hardwoods Owner Rick Lang Writes New Song for United Way

United Way of the Greater SeacoastThis winter, Highland Hardwoods owner Rick Lang was busy recording a jingle he had written last year for the United Way entitled "It's All About People." The song was created to pay tribute to the very important work United Way does in our local communities. The United Way staff quite was impressed with Rick's tune - so much so, they are now using it for a new promotional campaign, which will air on TV and radio during the month of April.

Produced by Mark Shilansky, and engineered by Huck Bennert, the actual recording took place at a studio in Acton Mass and included several prominent Boston area jazz musicians. The jingle was sung by United Way of the Greater Seacoast staff member, Lauren Wool - a gifted musician and vocalist with an absolutely beautiful voice. Dave Mackey of Insight Media, spent two days filming United Way volunteers working in the community to create the visuals and produced the finished PSA.

"It's All About People" will air on WMUR TV, Comcast cable and NH public TV throughout the month of April. A radio version, including an audio message, will air on several of the top area radio stations to complement the TV campaign.

To hear the completed audio version of "It's All About People", click here.

Customer Highlight

We have added a new & very exciting feature to our company's web site, "Customer Highlight."

Many of our hardwood lumber customers make a variety of beautiful and very unique handmade custom wood products from the hardwoods they purchase from us. Some bring in pictures to show us what they made, and sometimes even the products themselves. We thought it would be exciting on occasion to "highlight" some of these customers and their work, and share some information about them that would be of interest to others.

Our current Customer Highlight is...

Wayne Marcoux
Manchester, NH

Since opening his own shop in 1986, Wayne Marcoux has been building furniture that incorporates traditional joinery with fine hand-detailed finish work. His particular interest is in desks and in the challenges they present in building a piece of beautiful and long-lasting furniture that fulfills a variety of functions - storage, organization and security - and is still a comfortable writing, typing and/or keyboard surface. Over the past decade, Marcoux has fashioned numerous interpretations including: slant-top, Shaker style, drop-front, computer, receptionist, executive, and simple writing desks.

photoAn associate master of the New Hampshire Furniture Masters Association, President of the Guild of New Hampshire Woodworkers, and State Juried Member in the League of New Hampshire Craftsmen, Marcoux has received the League's Best Traditional Design and Best in Wood awards. He has also been recognized in national competition for his residential furniture designs.

Marcoux enjoys working in various furniture styles, gently intermixing styles that compliment each other and blend well with the other furniture that the piece will stand with.

"So far, I haven't gotten hung up on one particular style. There is something about all styles that I like. One of my mentors calls me the 'schizophrenic woodworker.' I really don't know how he meant that, but I took it as a compliment."

Marcoux's favorite style is the one his client wants or likes best. He enjoys working with people on the design and coming up with something different that will either blend or stand out in its new home.

"I consider myself the middle man between a client's idea or need and its fulfillment. I don't have to live with the piece, the client does."

Marcoux gets a lot of satisfaction from the whole process - starting with an idea, designing and collaborating with the client, doing shows and exhibits, marketing and meeting new people - but what he enjoys the most is building the furniture.

"I love doing the work!"

We are pleased to announce that Wayne Marcoux, and one of his newest works of art, will be featured in an upcoming edition of Fine Woodworking magazine!
