Our Roots


Family-owned and locally operated, Millard Lumber has been a supplier of building materials and home products for over 75 years. Millard Lumber was an early manufacturer of roof trusses, pre-manufactured wall sections and pre-hung doors and has since stayed in the forefront of advanced building techniques.

Today, Rick Russell and his management team, including his two sons, Joel and Mark, run the family-owned Nebraska-based business, along with over 200 associates at the Omaha and Waverly locations.

While Millard Lumber has experienced tremendous growth, our vision has remained the same for more than half a century: to help people achieve their goals of homeownership and pursue the American Dream while providing quality building materials and services that exceed our customers’ expectations.
