Company Profile

Jimmy Whittington Lumber has served Memphis builders since 1966, a family-owned lumberyard with locations in North Memphis and Cordova. We're a full-service independent yard, not a big-box store, stocking framing and dimensional lumber, treated lumber, decking, engineered wood products like LVL and I-joists, plywood, siding, mouldings, insulation and building supplies, serving both professional builders and DIY customers with delivery up to a hundred miles.

Nearly sixty years and multiple generations of the Whittington family in the same market mean our team knows the products and the local trade, and pulls orders personally. We belong to the LMC buying co-op for purchasing power but trade under our own independent name. As a family-owned independent with no chain-banner affiliation, Whittington pairs deep inventory with the personal service the big stores can't match. For lumber and building materials in the Memphis metro, builders rely on Jimmy Whittington Lumber.

We shifted our custom residential framing packages to Jimmy Whittington Lumber Co. last season. Their takeoff estimators are meticulous—they spotted a load-bearing transfer discrepancy in our drawings that would have cost us thousands in framing corrections. Elite service.

Their crane truck operators are the best in the business. Staged three heavy framing drops on a steep, narrow hillside lot with zero damage to the trees or neighbor's fence. Very dependable logistics dispatch.

Top-notch independent supplier counter. They don't just scan tags—they actually understand engineered wood and local code requirements. Whenever I call, I get direct answers on dispatch times and pricing buffers.
