Oxford Wood Recycling
We love seeing what you do with our wood, so keep the pictures coming 😍
As you can see from the opening picture, there is stunning spalted beech is amongst their number!
Other species include oak, elm, ash and something very unusual alder. The latter is one I don't think we have ever previously had in stock.
All this and more can now be viewed in store, as we are back in business on our usual opening times.
But if you'd prefer to buy by phone you call call 01235861228.

Some of the timber is planed rather than tannalised, so would be better suited for table legs, workbench tops or other furniture.
Either type costs just £1.80/m and we can trim any of it to shorter lengths for 50p/cut.
Local delivery is available too -send us your postcode for a quote.

“A fantastic Aladdin’s cave of a place. Brilliant, enthusiastic and informative people. Great collection of Hardwoods. I love this place, inspires me to try and learn new skills.
I bought a gorgeous piece of Chestnut and some large pieces of Oak to build a Garden Bench, I will certainly be back for more.”
