Greener's Budget Lumber is a family owned and operated business established by Larry Greener in Barron,Wisconsin, February of 1977. Not your normal big chain yard, Greener's offers a smaller, more personalized service aimed at pleasing the customers. After 11 years of success, Larry Greener purchased the Birchwood Building Center in Birchwood, Wisconsin. It opened in January of 1988 as an expansi
on store in the resort area of Birchwood, Wisconsin. Managing the Birchwood yard is Charles Alton, who has been with the company almost since the beginning as the assistant manager of the Barron yard. In the fall of 1995 we were the first yard in the area to offer a computerized drawing (CAD) service. This gave us the ability to provide our customers with realistic 3D drawing that allow you to see an actual picture of your house before you ever break ground. Along with this we later purchased state of the art software that allows us to do the same thing with kitchen design, and post frame design. More information can be found on our services section.
2002 saw the addition of our first boom truck. This let us offer our customers enhanced delivery services. Shingles can be lifted right to the roof, sheetrock to a second story window, and many other possibilities. Unlike some of the "big box" stores we don't not charge extra for this service. In 2005 the Birchwood yard underwent a major renovation. Adding 2720 square feet of show room space, which more then doubled the size of the existing building. The exterior was upgraded to all the latest in fiber cement sidings, composite trims, and cultured stone. With the vast array of products available, having some where to show case them is essential. In 2008 we added the ability for customers to shop online. Order from over 65,000 items from our partner, Doit Best Hardware. Items can be shipped directly to your home or have them shipped to our store to avoid paying any shipping costs. We are continually growing and expanding our services to keep up with the building industry and to provide the best possible service to our customers. Please look at the following pages to see if there is something we can do for you. We pride ourselves in offering personalized service that you won't get at a "big box" store. You will always see the same faces every time you stop in, and if you call a person will answer the phone.
