Hi, We're a social enterprise in Herts and are looking for approx 500 used scaffold boards 8ft or longer to make furniture, decking, raised beds etc.

Please let us know if you have any, we're looking for that quantity on a regular basis.

Distance up to approx 150 miles not a problem as we use a transport company to collect the boards in approx 500 to 600 board loads for us.

So are you expecting them for free then recyle & sell the product on?
 
Hi,

In the past we have got some boards for free (we are a social enterprise and provide those not in work for whatever reason with work learning and training) and some firms have been glad to get rid of them and we've paid the transport. In these cases we were told the alternative was that the boards would have gone in a skip as they were no longer any use as scaffolding and they needed to clear yard space.

Also we have in the past bought boards, we just posted here to see what there was out there. If you have boards to sell we're happy to talk to you to work out a price.

Hope we didn't come over as freeloaders, just is for some people these boards are waste and they're grateful that we take them.
 
Fair enough sounds like a good plan...maybe some of the big boys like our new forum sponsers may get on board(excuse the punn) but tbh us smaller companys recyle most of the stock as everthings got a price...even sole brds cost to buy so we normally cut down the scrap ones into these.rest goes as bags of fire wood...but good luck in ur search
