Lumber Prices Fall to 282.3

Lumber Prices fall 1.4% in September 2026 to 282.3 and up 8.7% from a year earlier. Illustrative only: if an unchanged lumber basket costs $250,000 now and tracks this index exactly, an 8.7% year-over-year move implies $20,009 more than a year ago. This is not a measured purchasing bill.

• September 2026: 282.3
• on the month: -1.4%

The print sits 73% of the way up the archived range of 259.1 (October 2025) to 291.0 (July 2026), with the standing trend rising.
