About Ben Jones Machinery
Ben Jones Machinery is a machinery dealer which specializes in used sawmill machinery for the lumber and plywood industries. We buy, sell and broker machines all over the US, Canada, Central and South America. Our specialty is sawmill machinery suited for small and medium sized operations.
Our 44,000 square foot warehouse in Columbus, Georgia, houses sawmill machinery such as bandmills, resaws, gang saws, edgers, hammer hogs, chippers, belt conveyors, chain conveyors, vibrating conveyors, unscramblers, planers, saw sharpeners, debarkers, and hundreds of other pieces of log, lumber and veneer processing machines.
The company was founded by Ben Jones in 1976 shortly after he sold three large sawmill operations. From 1988 until 2006, the business was owned and operated by Ben's son, Mike. Today the company continues to provide value to the industry, thirty years after its inception. In 2006, Ken Dickert who had served as a sales manager since 1993, purchased the business. Prior to coming to work for the company, Ken spent 14 years managing hardwood lumber, pallet and veneer mill operations.
Our skilled mechanics have over 20 years experience and routinely repair and rebuild all types of sawmill machinery for our customers.
