Things made from recycled wood The wood recycling process helps to save trees and reduce the environmental impact of cutting down more trees which in turn, reduces air and water pollution too.
Wood recycling plants redirect wood waste away from landfill so that this natural material can be repurposed into a long list of things, including: Domestic furnishings — used to create ornaments, tables, chairs, TV stands, etc.
Panel boards — used for decking, lofts and art canvases. Biomass — excess wood used for energy production. Mulches, composts and coverings — using low-quality wood and giving back to nature.

Ordering over the phone was quick and easy. Would definitely use again! Turned up when expected, was placed perfectly by the team, polite, and was removed promptly, when requested.
Good price, would definitely use again. Excellent service. This was my first time using a skip for domestic purposes.
Ordering was easy over the phone and the skip arrived in good time. We quickly filled it and called the following day to ask for it to be removed and it was gone within a few hours. Would use again. The office staff Lucas and Lucy and the drivers were all polite, helpful and efficient. They provided additional guidance on how to get the most from the medium-sized skip we'd hired and saved us the expense of needing a second skip. The drivers were exceptionally skilful in manouvering the skip into a tight area which saved us considerable extra time and effort.
We will use them agai Very helpful and friendly staff, the girls in the office are lovely! A lovely piece of reclaimed wood makes the perfect canvas to a creative painting or art project with character. And, joining different pieces and shapes of wood together will create stunning recycled wood sculptures.
Heavy pieces of scrap wood that might otherwise be discarded for their awkward shape may serve as perfect bookends or door stops, either painted or unfinished. A thinner square or rectangular piece of reclaimed wood can easily make a tray or small tabletop with character. One could also attach a clip to the top to make an instant and unique clipboard, which might be useful for hanging on the wall for grocery lists, etc.
Switch clips out for hooks and it makes a beautiful spot for hanging coats, bags and accessories. Easy ways to reuse wood in functional ways! Ah, the classic birdhouse. A cute little bird cottage takes very little wood and will only get cuter the more gnarled and jumbled it is.
Build a wild little birdhouse or animal inn for the woodland creatures to shelter inside. Every child should have a set of pretty blocks to play with. Square blocks, triangles, crescents, circles, rectangles—all shapes and all sizes to build the perfect castle. Pieces of reclaimed wood can be easily cut and stained or painted for this purpose. Small hunks of wood also lend themselves to making adorable wooden ornaments. Build little wooden animals or paint designs on pieces of wood before hanging them up.
Use one large piece of reclaimed wood or multiple small chips of wood to paint or attach house numbers onto. The effect can be anything from eclectic to elegant. Reclaimed wood beams and planks are simple to screw together into pretty and functional wooden planting boxes, which can be costly to buy new.
Structurlam has erected more than buildings with cross-laminated timber since It is ideal in multi-story buildings—the company has built one 18 stories tall, Spickler said. Structurlam gets its wood from trees damaged by pine beetles in the Pacific Northwest. To make a cross-laminated timber from reclaimed lumber, the surface must allow the adhesive to bond, Spickler said. Reclaimed lumber must be sent through a sawmill to fit it to the standard size and prepare it to accept adhesive.
He sees structural wood being reused for more decorative purposes. Builders worry that the supply of reclaimed material is not consistent in quantity or size, Falk said.
To make it feasible, there need to be standards to deliver uniform quality for manufacturers, he said. There may be other options to recycle this wood, Berghorn said. They include manufacturing wood pellets to heat homes. In northern Michigan, many homes that lack access to natural gas, according to a study Berghorn was a part of. Most heat with propane, an expensive fuel source. Converting these homes to burning wood pellets would give their owners a way to use cheaper fuel and create a market for reclaimed wood.
Other options for wood as a fuel source include torrefied wood, a coal substitute that is better for the environment and equivalent in energy value to coal.
