Treated wood, commonly used for outdoor structures like decks, fences, and playgrounds, can be difficult to dispose of due to the chemicals used in the treatment process. These chemicals, designed to protect the wood from insects, decay, and rot, make it unsuitable for regular disposal methods. Improper disposal of treated wood can lead to environmental contamination and potential health risks. Saul Hauls Junk Junk Removal specializes in safe, responsible, and compliant treated wood removal services, ensuring your old wood is handled with care and disposed of properly.
