Early publication of Random Lengths lumber suites

The publication of several Fastmarkets pricing suites for Random Lengths lumber prices was earlier than scheduled on November 25, 2025, because of a scheduling error.

The prices were published at 2:30pm Los Angeles time instead of the scheduled time of 3:30pm.

The data submission window had already closed, and the data collection and price assessments were not affected by the early publication.

The following Random Lengths lumber pricing suites were published early:

LBR Green Douglas Fir
LBR Western SPF
LBR SYP Treated
LBR Cedar
LBR Coast Dry Framing
LBR SYP Eastside & Central
LBR Inland Dry Framing
LBR SYP Post Beams & Timbers
LBR SYP Westside
