This business offers a strong foundation (not a start up), with immediate income potential. If you have a business mindset and enjoy projects working with lumber framing, boxing, and packing, then this 30+ year business may be a perfect fit. I have an exceptional opportunity to buy a 30+ year business at a LOW price considering its historical income. I offer three options and regardless of which option fits you best, this business requires some working capital for lumber purchases, labor, overhead, and carrying customer receivables 30 days - and it is not workable as a "shoestring" startup.
Option #1: Book of Business alone at ONLY $75k - which generated $546k Gross Revenue and $117K Seller's Discretionary Earnings in 2025. This scenario would be perfect if you already have a business and a facility or location to build wooden projects, and want to add significant net to your bottom line income. Relocate and Integrate my business into your existing business and you can add about $48,000. to the Net (which is what I paid in interest for my facility in 2025). Established customer base with recurring revenue, Proven Income History, Ideal for an existing Operator to Expand if you already build Wooden Crates, Packaging, Crating Service, Pallet Manufacturing, Framing / Framer, Sheds, Truss Company, Contractor, Handyman, Moving, Shipping, Logistics, Woodshop, Woodworking, Fencing / Fence Company, Deck Builders...
Option #2: Equipment & Assets. $95k to buy my book of business above, AND the operational equipment and assets to run the business (not including real estate). In this scenario, you would move my production equipment to your shop or facility location, and operate from your location. This allocates $20k to the value of my equipment & assets (which is what I estimate would be my very conservative net proceeds if I were to sell the assets). By my estimation, you would need from 2500 minimum to 5000 sq. ft. of production and storage space and some outside storage (depending on how effectively you can use your space).
Option #3: Full Package Live/Work - Undervalued & Discounted to $895,000k Total - Business + Assets + Real Estate with Living Quarters. Previously I operated out of a leased 9000 sq ft Denver metro building. 3.5 years ago, I purchased a building about 95 minutes East of Denver International Airport - which I am also selling. The high-end steel building is NICE with 13,920 sq. ft. on 2.5 acres and modern Living Quarters (bardominium style with area to expand). The living quarters is currently 1300 sq. ft. +/- finished nicely with 1 Bedroom, an office (could be another bedroom), combined living room/dining area, full kitchen, and large 3/4 bathroom with washer and dryer. The living area has AC and the entire building has in-floor heating for efficiency and is fully insulated. The property is on city water AND has a permitted water well. There is room to live, enjoy life, work, and get away from the city. The trade off is the drive for customer pick ups and deliveries. We have vendors who can pick up and deliver when necessary and we have regular freight pick ups. There is room to build a house, trees planted, taxes are low, it's a small town which has a grocery, 2 gas stations, Napa, a small golf course, movie theater, Dollar General, Senior Living, Elementary and High School with Swimming Pool, American Legion, Fire and Ambulance Services, Parks, Library, Liquor Store, Local Meat Shop, Ace Hardware, and a Diner restaurant and coffee shop. Lots of photos available on request. The separate price for the building and property is $850k. (not included in the business asking price).
In any of the above cases, a buyer will need to have enough working capital to cover overhead for 30 to 60 days. Most, but not all customers, are on 30 day payment terms.
There is NO owner carry financing on any of the above options. I am transitioning toward retirement and am selling low for those reasons.

Price for building and equipment assets is $850k with realtor involved if necessary ($25k max fee to transaction broker), $825k without. - Market Outlook / Competition
- This is an EXCEPTIONAL opportunity for the ambitious person considering the asking price compared with Revenue and Net Income. 30+ years in business gives this business an advantage over others. We've had some of our best years during and after Covid and during substantial lumber cost increases - which tells you that this is a essential business service. In 2024 business slowed significantly due to a couple of larger customers consolidating and/or moving out of state, and we adjusted to keep our Net healthy. 2025 saw an increase again from 2024 - so a person should continue to market, stay competitive, and serve customers with integrity, quality, urgency, and commitment. In 2021, revenue reached 1,032,874 - which also shows that this business can be significantly grown. That year showed $385,572 in Sellers Discretionary Income as a high note. In my opinion and the opinion of brokers, this business is Underpriced at $75k.
- Opportunities for Growth
- This scalable, systematic business could benefit incredibly with some focused internet and social media marketing and sales efforts. With all businesses, customers come and go on occasion, so it's important to keep your name in front of potential customers who are looking for your services. The business has generated revenue from $546k in 2025 to over $1M in 2021. "IF" you move this business to your location with an existing shop and can operate without adding the overhead which I have with my building, you could possibly add $48k to your bottom line income. SDE (which does not include interest paid on our building), was $117,485. for 2025. We do not build production wooden pallets - which is a VERY complimentary but competitive market - and an opportunity to expand. We do produce custom skids and decks for some customer. Our system incorporates a custom proprietary Excel pricing and cut list system developed in house.
