Where did you get that wood?

The Mid Sussex Wood Recycling Project

Compost Bins
So you want to create some raised beds for your newly inspired veg garden, or maybe you’re looking for that perfectly rustic compost bin to create your nutritious and virtuous soil improver. Whatever your project, if it needs wood, you need to visit the Mid Sussex Wood Recycling centre in Burgess Hill.
Mid Sussex Wood Recycling Project is a not-for-profit social enterprise. It was formed in 2007 to prevent some of the thousands of tonnes of wood going to landfill locally by collecting timber waste from manufacturing and construction industries.
As landfill costs increase, they are able to provide a cheaper viable alternative to skip hire for construction companies. They also provide recycling certificates at the completion of each project that can be used as a measure for Waste Extraction Plans when submitting future planning applications.
Broken pallets and wooden packaging waste is shredded for composting and any re-usable timbers from construction sites is re-sold to the public at affordable prices.They also construct original pieces of furniture such as benches and coffee tables as well as wooden compost bins and other garden materials for raised beds, pergolas etc.

They provide volunteering opportunities and work with the Mid Sussex (South) Council for Voluntary Service to facilitate this. Opportunities exist for working with the collection team in retrieving timber as well as providing basic carpentry skills to help the team construct items for sale.
