About this lot

Surplus PEFC-certified structural timber. Kiln-dried, grade-stamped. Suitable for joists, rafters and load-bearing studwork. Located in Leeds — collection or arranged regional delivery available. Listed 24 days ago by Leeds Urban Reclamation, a demolition based in Leeds.

Every lot here was once destined for waste transfer — listing it instead keeps first-quality material in circulation at well below merchant list. B-grade pricing reflects cosmetics, not performance — the defect notes below set out exactly what was downgraded and why.

Condition report & known defects

7/10
  • Each unit inspected and photographed on request before dispatch.
  • Edge and corner damage on ~16% of sheets — full interior sheet area is clean and flat.

Carbon & sustainability notes

No reuse CO₂ credit is claimed on this lot: it is unused stock, so the embodied carbon was committed at manufacture. Buying it still prevents waste — material sent to landfill or energy recovery delivers none of its embodied value.

With Part Z and embodied-carbon reporting moving up the agenda, documented reuse like this is increasingly worth recording in your project's carbon log.

Collection & delivery

  • Collection from the seller's Leeds premises — forklift loading available weekdays 7:30am–4pm.
  • Nationwide pallet courier available — typically £65–£90 per pallet, 2–4 working days.
  • Viewings welcomed by appointment; the measurements table above reflects what was checked at listing.

Typical applications

  • Feature cladding, shelving and furniture (reclaimed boards)
  • Flooring, sarking and sheathing
  • Formwork, hoarding and site protection
  • Garden structures, raised beds and decking

Questions about this lot

Is this timber structurally graded?+

Where the listing states a grade (C16/C24) the stamp is on the timber. Reclaimed boards from Leeds Urban Reclamation are sold for non-structural use unless re-graded by an inspector.

Will reclaimed boards have nails in them?+

The seller has metal-detected the stock; expect the odd missed fixing — budget 1 saw blades for a lot this size and check with a detector before machining.

How should I store it before use?+

Keep it stick-stacked, off the ground and under cover, and let it acclimatise on site for 7–14 days before fixing internally.
