Built around a real decision
Salvage Atlas helps renovators, designers and trades find reclaimed materials without treating an old photograph as current stock. The directory groups operators by useful material categories and preserves practical visiting and availability notes.
Salvage Atlas is an independent directory project. It is not a trade association, regulator, accreditation body or booking agent. Providers have not endorsed this directory by being included.
What we checked
Research used public provider websites and official service pages. Candidate directories helped identify businesses, but each published record links to primary evidence for its service. Summaries and guides are written for this directory rather than copied from provider marketing.
The present edition includes 128 distinct providers across 8 states or territories. Multiple branches and drop-off points are generally grouped under one operator. The record count is not a count of all individual venues, nor a claim of complete national coverage.
How to read a listing
- Source review means the public page was checked during research on the displayed date. It does not mean the operator answered us, passed an inspection or confirmed live availability.
- Tags describe supported service information. An absent tag is unknown rather than a negative finding. Conditions in the notes can narrow a tag's meaning.
- Location identifies a provider base or a source-backed additional branch. State results count an operator once, even when several branches are recorded. They do not promise to serve every visitor in that state.
- Sources let you check current detail. Prices, schedules, capacity and policies can change after our review.
Content and referral policy
Listings use business identifiers, locations, service categories and concise directory-written summaries. Provider phone numbers and email addresses are not published here. Open the tracked website link to check current details and contact or book with the provider.
A search result, HTML title, meta description or structured-data field is not treated as a licence to republish third-party wording. Source links provide context, not copyright permission. This editorial review is not legal clearance; permissions or licences are needed when protected content is reused.
Selection and exclusions
Closed yards identified during research are excluded. Multiple yards operated by one business are generally grouped. A material tag reflects the supplier’s advertised category, not a stock guarantee or certification that an item is suitable for structural reuse.
We do not fill gaps with invented listings, duplicate branches or unverified service labels. Default results are currently alphabetical and can be sorted by location. We don’t currently accept payment for placement or rank providers as the best. Any future paid placements will be clearly labelled.
Corrections and accountability
We welcome accurate source-based information, but this edition does not yet have a public publisher contact address or submission facility. We have not substituted a provider's contact details for the publisher's. Read the contact page for the current limitation.
