Nutzholzabtransport is a forestry term used in German-speaking contexts for the extraction phase in which merchantable timber (Nutzholz) is moved from the felling site to a roadside, landing, or mill. It represents the step between harvesting and transport to processing facilities and is part of the broader logging operation.
Common methods include ground-based skidding with tractors or skidders, and forwarder extraction, where logs are carried
