MARSHFIELD, MA:D.H. Smith & Sons (http://dhsmithandsons.com), a company which provides wood waste recycling, land clearing, mulch manufacturing, power equipment and retail landscape supplies, has further expanded its operations with the relocation of its headquarters to 887 Plain Street, Route 139, Marshfield.

Dan Smith Jr., who founded the company in 1997, said that the Marshfield location, the site of the former Copeland Lumber Company on Route 139, seemed the perfect solution for their needs when it became clear that they had outgrown the space at their Pembroke location. They first used the site for several years to manufacture mulch and then made the decision to build their new company headquarters there as well.

Smith and his team oversaw the design and construction of two buildings totaling 25,000 square feet, situated on the 16-acre parcel of land. In the last few years, the company has greatly expanded its offerings and now provides services to both the wholesale and retail markets.

One of the companys signature endeavors is its wood waste recycling, which began in 2015 but has greatly expanded in the last year. The company takes in stumps, logs, brush, woodchips, and other organic material from contractors, and then processes the materials through grinding, seasoning and color enhancing. Some of the logs which are brought in are sold to sawmills; the wood chips and grindings are made into premium mulch products and screened for loam. D. H. Smith & Sons has the onsite equipment to process all of the wood products right at their Marshfield location. Dan sees their location as ideal for contractors, landscapers, and residential tree service companies who are in need of a convenient location to dispose of and recycle their wood waste and compost.

In addition to taking in materials from contractors, the company also offers full land clearing and forestry services.

While the initial focus of D.H. Smith & Sons was the wholesale market, the company has added a retail component to their business with its power equipment sales and service division. The company is a full-service Husqvarna Power and Construction Equipment Dealer and Service Center. Additionally, the company sells firewood and landscape supplies to the public.

We continue to look for additional ways to serve the public, said Smith, adding, We have always done a brisk business with our wood waste recycling, and its great to see these products repurposed to their highest and best uses. As we have expanded our work with contractors and wholesale customers, we have also seen the benefit of offering the products and services to the public. We are pleased to add this retail component to the services and products that we offer.

The company plans to hold an open house later in the year, dependent on when COVID-19 restrictions make it feasible and safe to do so. Dan says, Were looking forward to inviting friends, neighbors, customers and the community to come and see our operation. We are proud of how it has turned out and are eager to show it off!
