BMC opens LBM distribution center in Denver
Boise, Idaho-based BMC opened its new lumber and building materials distribution center in Denver, Colo.
The lumberyard and distribution center will serve all of Colorado’s Front Range, as well as Summit County and Southern Wyoming.
“The location of this new distribution center and lumberyard is critical to the reemergence of the residential housing market in the Denver Metro and Colorado markets,” said Peter Alexander, chief executive officer of BMC. “Our customers will benefit from an increased service level, more capacity in the Denver Metro area, quick response time, greater depth of inventory and the availability of optimized packages of engineered wood products.
BMC serves customer segments that will drive the housing market as it begins to come back from the challenging economic climate, including production and custom homebuilders, repair and remodeling contractors and light commercial contractors.
Services offered at the new BMC facility include: quick response and precisely timed deliveries enabled by BMC’s state-of-the-art dispatch system, as well as BMC’s fleet of semi-truck flatbeds with truck-mounted forklifts that allow for tailored deliveries of large amounts of materials, sequenced and placed on the job site to improve contractor efficiency.
Products carried at the facility include: I-joists and engineered wood products, dimensional framing lumber, panel products and job site construction supplies.
Chris Jones, manager, will oversee the lumber and distribution center.
