Re: GBlist: Used lumber



Kristine

If you search REDI (www.oikos.com/redi) for "reclaimed lumber" you'll 
find a list of companies that sell products, such as flooring, made from 
salvaged material. It's getting to be big business, so I expect that 
you'll have no trouble finding someone to take the material. Hopefully 
they'll pay a bit for it too.
