Turnaround Timbers makes it easy for you to recycle wood, and for you to use recycled wood in your home and projects. We source, denail, straighten, and plane-clean recycled and salvaged wood. The beauty is exposed, waiting for you to choose your perfect pieces. Come for a visit and be inspired. Our mission To reduce our impact by providing a hub to recycle wood, and by supplying quality recycled wood to makers, DIYers, builders, and dreamers, in a welcoming, community-focused setting. Coco and Chris Parker have long had a passion for both wood and trees/forests. Combining these loves results in a commitment to wood recycling. They are still using their recycled wood kitchen they built 30+ years ago in the early years of their marriage (it's in their home full of recycled wood floors and furniture). It is this passion and commitment that has led to Turnaround Timbers.

ACKNOWLEDGMENT OF NGURRA

The City of the Blue Mountains is located within the Ngurra (Country) of the Dharug and Gundungurra peoples. MTNS MADE recognises that Dharug and Gundungurra Traditional Owners have a continuous and deep connection to their Country and that this is of great cultural significance to Aboriginal people, both locally and in the region. For Dharug and Gundungurra People, Ngurra takes in everything within the physical, cultural and spiritual landscape – landforms, waters, air, trees, rocks, plants, animals, foods, medicines, minerals, stories and special places. It includes cultural practice, kinship, knowledge, songs, stories and art, as well as spiritual beings, and people: past, present and future. Blue Mountains City Council pays respect to Elders past and present while recognising the strength, capacity and resilience of past and present Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander people in the Blue Mountains region.
