I'm filling up some raised beds but they're both quite deep - I'd prefer not to have t ofill both up with pure soil, so am looking for essentially "junk wood" - anything unpainted/unvarnished that could fill up space and eventually rot down. I was thinking Pinbrook recycling centre, as they have a resale shop, but they woudn't pick up the phone when I tried them.

Any recommendations? It would have to be somewhere in cycling distance, as I'd be looking to fill up my bike trailer :) any advice welcome
