Our Story
Our Beginning
Ozark Mountain Logging was established in 1998 with one log skidder and one chainsaw by our founder, who is a third-generation logger, as a way to provide service like people used to...back when your word was your bond, and a handshake was a promise. After more than 25 years, we stand by our word to provide customers with top tier service and top dollar for their timber.
Our Founder
Shane Long was born in Sarcoxie, MO and has remained an Ozarks resident his entire life. As an avid outdoorsman, Shane has a passion for conservation both on and off the water. In addition to being a third-generation logger, he is a professional angler, fishing guide, and active hunter. He works regularly with the Missouri Department of Conservation on forestry management to ensure the continued healthy habitats our native species.
When not logging, Shane enjoys spending time with his family which includes his wife, Mandy, and their three daughters, Emily, Brianna, and Callie. He is also the proud grandfather to three granddaughters, Timberlynn, Damon, and Oaklynn.
