Wood - Moderately Easy

Recycling wood products can be very easy. Some wood can be worth much more than you think so research your wood if you think it may be special. You may have extra wood sitting around or you may be looking to find it either way, give the wood new life and find a way to resell it. Even poor condition wood can be sold to mills that make products such as compressed firewood. 


Instructions

  1. Sort your wood into piles of equal types or quality.
  2. Photograph the wood, the more pictures the better.
  3. Post your wood on craigslist and other local classifieds.
  4. Call any local timber or flooring companies that sell recycled wood and ask what they are offering for various types of wood.
  5. Contact woodworking schools, furniture makers, and artists in your area. Reclaimed wood is very popular within this crowd.
  6. If nothing else works find a wood mill that buys wood. They will pay less money and you will have to pay for transport but they are a sure thing.
