- The cost of actually selling timber through TimberAuctions.co.uk is very low and we offer a choice of charges so that you can pick the most cost effective for you:
Annual Corporate Membership
For £250 plus VAT per year you can sell as much timber as you like. This is an extremely cost effective option if you have a large amount to sell in any one year, it can be a single lot or a number of different lots throughout your 12 month membership. To cover administration costs there will be a charge of £50 plus VAT per lot in addition to the annual membership fee.
Individual Sellers
For those with a single parcel or lower value timber we offer this option where we will charge a set commission fee of 1.5% plus VAT in the event of a successful sale. If there is no sale there will be no commission charge. As above there will be a charge of £50 plus VAT per lot to cover administration costs and this is payable regardless of whether or not the parcel sells.
Home Page Logo Link - For an additional £200 plus VAT per year you can feature your company logo on our home page which will link directly to your company website.
