Wood Waste Collection
Simplify the disposal of your scrap timber, pallets, offcuts, boxes, plywood and other wood refuse by arranging wood waste collection with us. We make sure your wood waste reaches a licensed recycling route — recycled or reused in the most environmentally friendly way possible.
Overview
Whether you have scrap timber, hardboard, MDF, sawdust or any other wood waste, we arrange collection from a designated, accessible point on your premises and make sure it reaches a nearby wood-recycling centre for sorting, treatment and recycling.
You can arrange wood collections to fit your schedule. Whether you need a one-off pickup or regular removals — daily, weekly or biweekly — we have a solution that fits your business, no matter how much wood waste you generate.
Recycling wood waste keeps it out of landfill, recovers material, reduces emissions and saves you the associated taxes and fees.
Who we work with
We arrange wood waste collections for businesses that produce offcuts and dust week in, week out: furniture and joinery workshops, CNC and sheet-material cutting, acoustic panel and cabinet makers — and any business with pallets and wooden packaging to clear.
What we accept
- Scrap timber and offcuts
- Pallets and crates
- Plywood, MDF and hardboard
- Sawdust and shavings
- Wooden packaging and boxes
- Boxes, plywood and other wood refuse
MDF, sawdust and extraction dust
Offcuts of MDF, chipboard and other sheet materials, and the sawdust and extraction dust that come with them, are some of the most common wood wastes we're asked about. They can be collected bagged, loose or in sealed containers, on a schedule that matches how fast you fill them.
Treated, painted or coated wood (for example fencing, or anything treated with creosote) can't always go down the same route as clean offcuts. Tell us what you have and we'll find the right licensed option — see hazardous waste.
