Committed to a Greener Future
Sustainability is one of our core values at Merrett Logging, keeping the planet and our community at the heart of our business. Trees are vital to our planet’s carbon dioxide cycle and provide habitats for a variety of wildlife – and that’s why sustainable forestry is so important. We harvest our softwood every 15 years, only taking what we need without depleting our sources. Sustainability is ensuring we leave a better world for future generations.
Local Roots, Nationwide Reach
Merrett Logging’s base camp is in Penola, South Australia. However, we have a broader service area with a depot in Mount Gambler and deliver as far as Colac, and Geelong. We work within South Australia and Victoria’s green triangle, which spreads between Portland, Hamilton, Penola and Millicent. If you’re in the area, don’t hesitate to call us for all your forestry harvesting and haulage needs.

This week, Merrett Logging was fortunate to host contractors from across Australia, alongside representatives from John Deere in Finland, America and Australia, to showcase the new H Series Harvesters and Forwarders.
The new H Series brings together smarter connectivity, advanced automation and data-driven technology designed to improve productivity and performance out in the field.
It was a proud moment for Merrett Logging, the people we employ and the forestry industry as a whole. It was fantastic to bring so many passionate people together to share ideas, experiences and the future of forestry.
A huge thank you to everyone who travelled to attend — hopefully there are many more events like this in the future 🌲🚜
