#chipboard #reclaimedwood #oxfordwoodrecycling
First up, here's a trolley load of iroko veneer shelves from an engineering workshop in Oxford. There are about 40 available, for £6 each.
Then there was another lot of ply and chipboard sheets, a few thicknesses on offer, with prices from £4 - £10 each.
Lastly look out for those lovely new louvre doors when have come from a new build near Bicester. I don't have the sizes handy but they'll be around £55 each.
You'll need to wait till tomorrow if anything takes your fancy, but from 8:30 onwards we'll be able to field your enquires.

In all the excitement I've not had time to share the lovely lumps of ash which came in this morning. The smaller, thicker chunks would be perfect for chopping boards, while the longer pieces seen like excellent shelving.

Not all are full sheets, we'll know more once they have been put in the racks, but on first impression they'll be around £8 - £16 per piece.
