Where else can you buy wood slats for park benches besides home depot?

Answer 1

contact any local cabinet shop,deck builder,or local millwork shop, they will have access to material suppliers which handle appropriate wood species for out door uses.these services can be best found by calling your nearest wholesale lumber dealer and ask who they supply material to that may be willing to perform this task.you could also visit homes under construction,get the builder,deck builder,or cabinet shop being used on said construction and contact them directly with your request. normally these are smaller shops with leftover material from previous jobs and in many cases will welcome the opportunity to make use of material too good to throw away but know the odds of finding a good purpose for it is remote.even if the shop is to busy to take on your small task, ask if there might be an employee willing to take this as a side job.as always there will be those that are crotchety and unobliging and those that consider your request a reasonable approach to solve a problem. our shop has performed such services many times and as a benefit we have many appreciative friends.
