When our team collects your timber, pallets or construction offcuts, the job is far from finished. Every load starts a journey through a structured recycling process designed to keep as much material as possible out of landfill.
We explain step by step what happens to wood waste once our vehicles leave your site in London, and why choosing a specialist collection service makes a real difference to the environment and your business.
Eco-Friendly Wood Waste Collection in London
From Collection to Recycling: The Journey of Your Wood
Here is what happens after your wood waste collection in London:
1. Collection & Transport
Your timber, pallets or offcuts are loaded onto our vehicles and transported directly to an approved Materials Recovery Facility.
2. Sorting & Grading
Wood is sorted by type and condition. Clean, untreated timber is separated from painted, laminated or contaminated material.
3. Processing & Reuse
High-quality wood is shredded and reused in new chipboard products, mulch, or converted into biomass fuel for renewable energy.
Why Landfill Is the Last Resort
Wood that ends up in landfill decomposes slowly and releases methane, a greenhouse gas far more harmful than CO2. That is why every collection we carry out is designed to divert waste away from landfill sites wherever possible.
Instead, most of the wood we collect across London is transported to a local Power Station in Slough, where it is converted into renewable energy, or reprocessed into materials used in construction and manufacturing.
