What we do

We provide a commercial waste wood collection service, working with most of the country’s top construction companies and with businesses in all sectors that produce timber or pallet waste.

You can find wood for all your DIY needs including softwood in standard dimensions, plywood chipboard and OSB, hardwoods, pallet slats, cable reels and scaffold board. Because our wood is reclaimed stock will vary, so contact your local wood store to find out what they have today.

We work with local people, bringing men and women who are marginalised into a supportive workplace. They become part of our team and gain training and work experience as well as a sense of pride. We see them flourish, moving from social isolation, loneliness and lack of confidence to paid work, shared achievements and the sense of camaraderie that comes from working together to help the environment.

Alex joined Glasgow Wood in 2011 as a volunteer. He had been struggling to find employment, and immediately found great satisfaction in being able to contribute to the work of the enterprise. He is now employed as Machine Shop and Retail Assistant with the company. For Alex, customer satisfaction and the environmental benefits of wood recycling are important aspects of his work.
