This is exactly the kind of material that typically ends up in a skip costing the seller money; buying it diverts it back into a build. This is unused, current-spec material — the only thing second-hand about it is the price tag logic.
Choosing this lot over new product avoids an estimated 33 kg CO₂e — benchmarked against felling, milling and kiln-drying virgin softwood (~0.45 kg CO₂e per kg of new timber).
For scale: roughly 195 km in a typical petrol car, or a year's absorption for 2 established trees.
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.
Where the listing states a grade (C16/C24) the stamp is on the timber. Reclaimed boards from Manchester Greenfield Contractors are sold for non-structural use unless re-graded by an inspector.
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.
Keep it stick-stacked, off the ground and under cover, and let it acclimatise on site for 7–14 days before fixing internally.
