Sell Reclaimed Materials Online with The Reclaimed Company ®
We are building more than a marketplace. We are building a sales channel for reclamation yards, demolition companies, contractors, architectural salvage businesses and private sellers who want to turn surplus stock into revenue.
We make you make money. At the same time, we help keep valuable materials in use because everything deserves a second chance.
Why This Matters
The reclaimed sector is changing. More buyers now begin their search online, whether they need reclaimed roof tiles, salvage timber, chimney pots, ridge tiles, architectural antiques, stone, ironmongery or one-off demolition finds.
Yet many yards and salvage businesses still rely on local footfall, word of mouth, classified ads or fragmented social media posts to move stock. That leaves money on the table and limits the reach of good materials that deserve a wider market.
The Reclaimed Company ® is designed to solve that. We already operate in the reclaimed building materials space, attract sector-relevant traffic and understand how specialist materials should be presented, described and sold.
Good salvage deserves better exposure than a yard corner or a rushed social post.
Who Should List on Our Platform?
This model is not just for one type of seller. It works for anyone holding genuine second hand, reclaimed, salvaged, upcycled or surplus items.
Reclamation yards
Open your yard to a wider UK and European audience without building your own full e-commerce engine.
Demolition companies
Recover value from strip-out materials, architectural salvage and reusable stock instead of crushing or skipping it.
Roofing contractors
Sell leftover slates, tiles, ridge pieces, lead-related stock or salvaged materials from completed projects.
Architectural salvage dealers
Promote specialist items to buyers who actively search for period and character materials online.
Builders and merchants
Turn redundant stock, discontinued lines and over-ordered materials into cash.
Private sellers
List one-off reclaimed finds, surplus project items or second hand goods with genuine resale value.
In simple terms: if the item is second hand, reclaimed, salvaged, reused, recycled or upcycled, it belongs in our ecosystem.
What Makes The Reclaimed Company ® Different?
A targeted audience
General marketplaces try to be everything to everyone. We do not. Our platform is built around reclaimed materials, architectural salvage and second hand stock. That means your listings sit in front of buyers who actually want reclaimed goods.
Traffic with intent
We already attract considerable interest in the reclaimed sector through our shop, content and wider platform activity. The intention is clear: to direct more buyers into a marketplace built specifically for reuse and reclamation.
A better quality environment
We want a clean, professional platform that helps good sellers thrive. That means a better buyer experience, clearer product presentation and less clutter than the average mass-market listing site.
The goal is straightforward: more visibility, more enquiries and more sales for quality reclaimed stock.
Our 10% Commission Model
We are moving toward a simple commission-based online listings model. Sellers list reclaimed items on our platform and, when an item sells, we charge 10% commission on the sale value.
This structure is deliberate. It means we are aligned with our sellers. If you do not sell, we do not earn. If you do sell, we are rewarded for helping create the sale.
| Feature | The Reclaimed Company ® | Why it matters |
|---|---|---|
| Commission on sales | 10% | A clear, easy-to-understand model tied directly to performance. |
| Shipping charges | Seller-controlled | You set realistic transport or collection terms to suit your stock. |
| Audience | Reclaimed and second hand focused | Your items are shown to buyers already interested in salvage and reuse. |
| Platform purpose | Sector-specific | Not lost in a sea of unrelated consumer products. |
Our message to sellers is simple: you make money, we make money, and we make you make money.
Why Yards and Demolition Firms Should Care
Many yards and demolition businesses already sit on valuable stock. The challenge is not whether the materials have value. The challenge is whether the right buyer sees them in time.
- Old stock becomes working capital instead of slow-moving yard inventory.
- Specialist materials reach farther than local trade circles alone.
- Reusable items are diverted from waste streams and kept in circulation.
- Your business gains another sales channel without needing to build everything yourself.
- Your yard becomes visible beyond your postcode, across the UK and into wider European demand where relevant.
For demolition companies in particular, the opportunity is significant. Strip-out items, roof coverings, architectural pieces, reclaimed timber, metalwork, stone, doors, windows and salvageable fittings often carry resale value that is missed when recovery is not linked to a proper sales platform.
Environmental Value Is Commercial Value
Reclamation is not just a commercial activity. It is also a practical environmental response to unnecessary waste. Every good item reused is one less item crushed, landfilled or replaced by a newly manufactured equivalent.
That matters for roofing materials, timber, stone, metals, garden salvage, industrial items and architectural elements alike. Reuse cuts waste, reduces embodied carbon and supports a more circular building economy.
We want our platform to help other salvage businesses thrive while also promoting reclamation as a genuine environmental benefit, not just a niche hobby.
Good reclamation keeps useful materials in circulation and creates value from what others overlook.
What Sellers Can List
The range is deliberately broad, provided the goods are genuinely second hand, reclaimed, salvaged, surplus, recycled or upcycled.
Roofing materials
Reclaimed slates, clay tiles, pantiles, ridge tiles, chimney pots, rainwater goods and associated salvage.
Architectural salvage
Doors, windows, fireplaces, stone, ironmongery, decorative pieces and period fittings.
Timber and structural items
Beams, sleepers, scaffold boards, reclaimed planks and joinery-grade material.
Garden and exterior items
Troughs, planters, paving, edging, gates, tanks and reclaimed outdoor features.
Industrial and specialist stock
Metalwork, storage units, mechanical items and one-off salvage finds with useful second lives.
General second hand items
Where suitable, sellers can also list quality used goods that fit the wider ethos of reuse.
How the Model Works
- Create your seller account and begin adding listings.
- Upload clear photographs and write honest, useful descriptions.
- Set your price and your delivery or collection terms.
- Reach a wider audience through a platform dedicated to reclaimed goods.
- Pay 10% commission when the sale happens.
The aim is to make the process easy enough for private sellers, while still commercially useful for larger yards and businesses with meaningful volumes of stock.
A Better Sales Channel for the Reclaimed Sector
Too many salvage businesses rely on systems that were never built for them. A social media post disappears. A generic marketplace buries specialist items. A yard can only serve the people who physically find it.
We want to change that by creating a stronger digital route to market for reclaimed materials. One where the audience is relevant, the presentation is better and the commercial model is fair.
The mission: help good sellers reach more buyers, help more reclaimed materials find new homes, and help the sector grow on stronger commercial foundations.
