Kuiper opens lumber supply shop in Scappoose

Volume 2: Issue 9 - 09/01/2007

By CRBJ

A longtime local name associated with the lumber industry is back: Jeff Kuiper recently opened Kuiper Lumber Supply, Inc., in Scappoose.

Kuiper’s dad operated a local lumber outlet for many years, and the younger Kuiper has been in the business for some 25 years, he told Coast River Business Journal.

Jeff’s operation has been in the planning stage for some time and recently obtained its last local permits.

Currently, Kuiper operates the one-acre lumber yard from a temporary office. Plans call for his move to a 9,000 square foot building adjacent to the yard, sometime next year.

Kuiper serves the building needs of both professional contractors and do-it-yourselfers.

"There really aren’t any large (lumber supply businesses) in the area," Kuiper said. "We’re trying to fill that void."

Kuiper Lumber Supply, Inc., is located at 33345 Scappoose Vernonia Highway. Hours are Monday through Friday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. and Saturday from 8 a.m. to 4 p.m. The telephone number is (503) 543-5188.
