Thread: Best place for recycled timber in Adelaide?

There is a very interesting shop at Yankallila. It is in an old dairy and the place is full of recycled timber. Its easy to find. As you drive down the hill and into the town take the first left and head towards Victor. The shop is on the left about 300 metres down the road. It is run by a very nice lady but she only opens on Thursdays and fridays. She has her mobile number on the door and a note saying she is usually not far away. I have bought some jarrah there at prices far lower than Adelaide. A friend is having a new kitchen built out of recycled baltic pine which has all been sourced from there. The timber is all under cover and in good nick. Good luck.

You could have a look at Adelaide Rural Salvage on Hanson Rd. in Wingfield. They stock bucket loads of Jarrah, Tas. Oak, Baltic Pine, etc.
Reasonable prices

Check out the wellow pages under 'building products' theres lots of places esp. on the northern side of Ade. dont bother with 'De south of the Onkiparinga river. rouges. Tony

It doesn't take much imagination to know that those sleepers could be gorgeous does it Himzo!

Damn, now if only I had space right now to start storing wood with potential!

Yep: went there last weekend and picked up some baltic pine, rimu, and oak. Spent this morning pulling nails out of it, so be prepared.
