Equipment Tire Service for Logging & Forestry Operations
Logging and timber operations in Eastern Kentucky and East Tennessee run in conditions that most tire suppliers never encounter. Bill Morgan Tire has been working alongside logging operations in the region long enough to know what works in the woods and what doesn't, and we don't waste your time recommending tires that look good on a spec sheet but fail before the first load is out.
Skidder, Forwarder & Feller-Buncher Tires
Skidder tires are among the most demanding OTR applications in the industry. They need to resist deep sidewall cuts from stumps and root systems and maintain traction on steep muddy grades. We stock and specify tires for grapple skidders, cable skidders, forwarders, and feller-bunchers across the size ranges common to timber operations.
Our team asks about your terrain type and primary damage patterns before making a call (what works on flat timber ground in Western Kentucky is often wrong for the steep hollows of the Appalachian ridgeline)
Log Truck & Timber Hauler Tires
We carry commercial drive tire lines suited to mixed-surface application and can set up an account program for logging companies that want consolidated billing across their truck and equipment inventory.
Foam Fill for Debris-Heavy Cutting Sites
Foam-filled tires remove any risk entirely, the machine keeps working regardless of what the tire rolls over. We perform foam-fill service at our shops or on-site at staging areas, and for operations that move frequently between cutting blocks, we can coordinate mobile service to meet your equipment at the next site.
Mobile Service to Reach Remote Sites
We understand that logging operations don't set up next to a tire shop. Our mobile service trucks are equipped for remote dispatch, and we're experienced with the access conditions common to active timber sites, rough forest roads, limited turnaround space, and equipment that's too large and too embedded in an operation to transport for tire work.
