Timber Recycling

At Waste Smart our main priority with timber recycling is re-use. The main type of timber waste that we handle is timber-packaging waste such as used pallets, crates and boxes. Building and demolition timber waste also represents a high proportion of our timber waste stream.

Wherever possible we repair the pallets, boxes and crates. If these items are unsuitable for repair they are dismantled and the timber is then used to produce custom made pallets, crates and boxes. We also produce survey pegs, garden stakes, gluts and spacers.

Timbers that are of building or furniture grade are placed in our timber yard for re-sale. In this yard we also stock a range of new timber. The timber that we stock is suitable for projects such as fencing, sheds, pergolas, cubby houses and basic renovations. New materials in stock include 90 x 35mm pine, 75 x 75mm hardwood gluts, treated-pine fence pailings and plinth. We also stock plywood, MDF and chipboard, along with a range of salvaged items such as bathtubs, corrugated iron roofing and PVC pipes.

Any timber that is unsuitable for packaging or resale is mulched to produce a variety of quality landscaping mulches.
