Timber transportation in Brazil is mostly done through highways and the freights alone sometimes consume up to 60% of all logistic expenditures. The organization, rationalization of highway forest transportations operations, identification of operational factors and cost interference, might represent great economy of resources for the companies of this sector, and also increase operational efficiency. This study"s objective was to analyze timber highway transportation technical and cost factors, with different vehicles compositions, in different locations of Vale do Rio Doce, MG. Initially were studied times and movements of trips at daytime and nighttime, as well as timber loading on field and unloading at the factory, gathering operational information. The analyses were divided in three timber production regionals with different transportation distances. Rio Doce"s regional, with a mean transportation distance of 73 km; Guanhães" regional, with mean transportation distance of 135 km; and Nova Era"s regional, Cocais" region, with mean transportation distance of 74 km. The mean operational speed in Rio Doce"s regional was 35 km/h for three semitrailers and 41 km/h for two semi-trailers; operational efficiency of 83,4% for three semi and 89,6% for two semi. The mean operational speed at Guanhães„ regional was 37 km/h for three semi and road train; operational efficiency of 89%. The mean operational speed at Cocais" region was 29 km/h for two semi, and operational efficiency of 88,5%. The operational costs comparative showed that timber transportation at Cocais" region is the most expensive, costing 0,341R$/m³/km; followed by Rio Doce"s 0,208 R$/m³/km; and Guanhães" 0,201 R$/m³/km. Cocais" high cost of transportation is connected to the mean volume transported per trip, however, because of legal and operational criteria it"s not possible to use vehicles with larger cargo capacities at this region.
