Don&#8217;t lose your trees by burning or giving them away: use them with a Vall\u00e9e mobile sawmill to process your logs directly on site, for all your personal and recreational projects.<\/p>\n\n<p>We invite you to follow the municipality\u2019s regulations, but here are some guidelines to help you make your decision.<\/p>\n\n<div style=\"height:51px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Assess your wooded area<\/h2>\n\n<p>Before we begin, it is important to:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Identify the most suitable wood species: spruce\/pine for walls and structure, maple\/oak for floors and finishes<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Count the accessible trees and approximately measure their diameter and height.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Prepare a stable location to set up the sawmill and arrange the logs<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Decide whether you move the sawmill to the trees or use the Valley Express to bring the logs to the machine<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<div style=\"height:51px\" aria-hidden=\"true\" class=\"wp-block-spacer\"><\/div>\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Choose the appropriate mobile sawmill<\/h2>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Big Red: ideal for large logs and large-scale projects such as a house or garage<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Little Blue: flexible and easy to handle, perfect for a garage or shed<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Yellowstone: affordable and compact for small recreational projects<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p>All these sawmills:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Can be pulled by an ATV for difficult access<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Some models are road-transportable<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>They feature the One-Step-Go system for quick engine and
