Volunteer with BIG!NYC this Saturday in Astoria!

Join us in Astoria this Saturday, June 2nd from 11am to 3pm for our BIG!NYC Volunteer Day! We'll be tackling projects like sorting and organizing paint donations, boxing and taping tile, and denailing lumber. Come meet new people, have fun in the sun, and show off your green building skills! We'll be providing a pizza lunch and fun music. RSVP here. Please wear closed-toe shoes, and clothes that you don't mind getting a lil' bit dirty! 

Weathered Scaffolding Wood
Both reuse centers received donations of 8-10foot long 2x9 boards. Come by this weekend to pick out lumber for your next reclaimed wood project! $1.50/linear ft.
Reclaimed Kitchen Cabinet Tip
Did you know? Standard kitchen cabinet measurements are built in 3 inch increments.
When you're preparing a makeover for your kitchen cabinet, the first step is to measure and sketch your space. Remember to bring in your measurements (and a tape measure!) when looking at used cabinet sets. Check out our salvaged kitchen cabinet inventory here.
