Our aim is to prevent the unnecessary landfilling of timber by collecting as much waste timber as possible, and to re-use and recycle as much as possible too.

We re-use wood via sales of timber and recycled wood products at The Wood Store, and recycle wooden packaging material via chipping and re-use for gardens and allotments. Other timber is cut to be sold as recycled firewood.

We have steadily increased the amount of waste wood we collect year on year, and have also reduced the amount we send to landfill. We are now collecting around 450 tonnes of waste timber a year, and return less than 1% of this to the waste stream.
