Solo Wood Recycling

Solo Wood Recycling We are a reclaimed wood yard. Open to the public weekdays and Saturday. Come down and see us! What is then left, will be chipped up for biomass fuel.

The South London Wood Recycling Project (Solo Wood Recycling) is a not-for-profit wood recycling Social Enterprise. We save wood waste from landfill by offering a collection service for the producers of wood waste and reuse or recycle as much of it as possible. Once collected in our truck, the wood is taken back to our yard to sort through what can be sold as timber and what products can be made f

rom it. We deal in...

Timber for local business's and resident's
Handmade wooden furniture and products (bespoke service available)
Pallets
Firewood
Wood collection/delivery service
Reclaimed floorboards
Reclaimed scaffolding boards

Volunteers most welcome. Please call or email and enquire. VISIT OUR WEBSITE FOR MORE INFO - www.solowoodrecycling.co.uk

Solo Wood Recycling is a trading name of Croydon Wood Recycling Limited. Not-for-profit limited by guarantee.

Got to give a shout out to Rachel and Joel for the amazing work they have done giving these old victorian joists a new lease of life.

Needing a work area and shelving, they drop in to see us for a little advice and inspiration, and boy, what a result they have had.

If you need something similar, well worth dropping by.

So, a massive thumps up to you both, great work, looks absolutely brilliant, well done, and we'll see you for the next project!

As far as first time projects go, we reckon Aamer has smashed it with his one.

Wanting to build a mud kitchen for his little ones, but not done it before, him and his wife came to see us for some Solo inspiration!

A few pallets later...

And wow, what a result he's had, kids are going to love it, and it's given Aamer the confidence to try building other things...we feel we'll be seeing a lot more of him now. Haha

So a massive well done to Aamer and co, we knew you could do it, that's great work and we're sure we'll see you again for your next project.

It shows with a little hard work and imagination, it's all possible with woodwork. If you want something similar, then drop by, and we'll show you round.

We're loving our new habitat walls, which we are making for our new wood bays. We've been wanting to redo the bays for a while, and wanted to do them in a way that would help nature and be more eco friendly.

Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do at Solo, and we are hoping that these bays become home to birds and insects, who desperately need support nowadays.

So we'd like to give a big thanks to for giving us the opportunity to get involved in the dismantling of this art installation, and the main gallery, who shall remain anonymous! Our wood bays appreciate your support, and we've put the birch branches to good use for you.

We have some branches left, but they are going fast, we are asking for donations to the mission for them, come grab some before they are all gone.

Pallets are a really versatile material and can be reused to make many things. Why not try building some storage space to hide garden stuff, or yourself from roaming terrors! Haha.

Open to the public: Monday to Friday 11am till 3pm, and Saturdays 10am till 2pm.

Come see us when you can, and we'll get you busy!

Hi all, happy friday! Maybe. Haha.

It is very unusual for us, but we have about 3000 3m long branches in the yard, all looking for a project to be part of.

Mostly silver birch, some are stripped of bark the others not.

They came from an art installation, and have a multitude of uses as far a we can see. Come grab some while they are here, don't imagine they will be here for long, especially now everyone is busy working in the garden or allotment.

Discount given if buying in bulk...

Come see us when you can, and we'll get you busy!

So Easter break is coming, and you're wondering what to do!... do you spend time with the family, or do you do what our regular Mike did, and build yourself some extra storage in the garden.

As we all know, you can never have enough storage, and modern homes aren't designed for all our hoarding needs, so worth thinking outside the box! Literally. Haha.

Using pallet wood and his own muscle, Mike put this together in a couple of days, and now it's standing and has doors and roof on it, he has somewhere to hide if the kids get too much! Haha.

So anyone looking for extra storage, or hiding spots from the kids...Come down and see us, and we'll get you busy.

Open to the public Monday to Friday 11am till 3pm and Saturdays 10am till 2pm.

Drop by when you can.
