Does anyone know the contact info or email info on a German DIY lumber company that I could contact to see what standard sizes they have in stock? I also have to get some conversions from US to metric. Thanks in advance!
I’m not sure I understand you correctly - are you looking for a DIY store with lumber, or a lumber yard?

These are the well-known (to a layperson) big chain markets. There are smaller ones locally of course.
If you want lumber yards for a truckload of wood - tell me, that’s a different issue. I would have to search some.
A starting point would also be the several groups for the wood industry, for example Holzverband Holzhandel Holzindustrie
