TRIM
Our retail yard is really the working hub of our activity. Our workshop, office and yard are based here and it is where our collected timber is processed (ie de-nailed, de-screwed etc), sorted (by quality, size and type) and stacked ready for sale to our customers or used for manufacturing other products. We aim to sell on our timber to builders or members of the public at a much reduced rate than they would pay for new timber plus, of course, it saves sending it to landfill and spoiling the environment.
Subject to availability, we stock timber in all kinds of sizes from 1" x 1" to 8" x 2". This can either be treated or untreated timber. We also sell plywood, MDF, chipboard, chip and oak flooring (including tongue and groove), hardwood decking (anti-slip and treated), scaffolding plank timber and, occasionally even wooden railway sleepers, although they are rare and we often use them in our workshop for making benches and other items. Floorboards are also something which are in high demand so checking before coming to the yard would be advisable. We have even started stocking timber of a much larger size too. Again, availability on this can vary so please check with us first, or bear it in mind when visiting us.
Once the timber has been processed, graded and stored, any timber remaining which isn't of re-saleable value (contaminated in some way or just totally unsuitable for re-use), we take it to a timber processing plant in the local vacinity where it is pulped and re-sold to other timber manufacturers who will make it into oriented strand board, chipboard, MDF or similar products. Again this saves the waste wood being sent to landfill and enables it to be recycled back into a useful product.
If a customer is looking for a quantity or size of timber which we don't have in our main yard, there is the possiblity that we may have it in stock in one of our other storage facilities so a customer's first action would be to come and visit the yard and have a look around to see what we have in stock here and if anything is required which isn't here, just ask and even if we don't have any, we can advise you when or if we are likely to be able to get it - or not, as the case may be, in which case we will do our best to advise you where you can get it.
