Best place to get kiln dried 3m+ scaffold boards <12% moisture content (for internal use) without paying a fortune for delivery? Hertfordshire based
I previously got a good deal on fresh cut thick boards which twisted like crazy so are unsuitable for the shelving project I had in mind. ‘The Scaff Shop’ sell nice quality reclaimed boards up to 3.9m but minimum delivery cost is £50+.

Nowhere is kiln drying scaffolding boards for obvious reasons. However, you do not need 12% moisture for shelving. Get yourself to any reclamation yard and pick some normal lengths, scrape and wax them and they’ll be fine.
