folder of documents, Log Cartage 1993, 1993

Historical information

This folder of documents was created by Bonang Timbers at their Waygara mill.

Significance

Orbost has historically been based on the timber industry, but that industry has declined considerably over the last 20 years. Many Orbost men worked at the Waygara timber mills. The number of locals involved in the timber industry has declined and many of the mills have closed. This item reflects a time when that industry was a significant contributor to the economy of the district.
