What to do with
Wood & timber
Wood and timber are not accepted in your household recycling bin but you can take it to most household waste recycling centres. We recommend checking with your local council in the first instance.
There are also wood recycling organisations, such as Community Wood Recycling, which will collect re-usable wood for recycling, often for less than the cost of hiring a skip.
