He brings us everything from bubble wrap to 2×4’s and recently wood pallets. The pallets have OSB board, which is a type of plywood on one side. We always have uses for plywood. When you take them apart you are left with a whole ton of these little wood blocks that are about 5 inches by 5 inches by 5 inches. We gathered all of those up and filled the wood box. They will make great fire starters for next winter.

Think creative. Who do you know that works somewhere with stuff they throw away? It needs to be within close driving distance to make it worth wile.
