Found: recycled milk jug fence

We just had our second fence contractor come out to the house to give us an estimate on fencing in our front yard. We were a bit shocked that they had a recycled milk jug fence option since we had looked and looked for something like that for months before giving up on actually finding what we really wanted. We knew we really have to fence in our front yard in the next few months, but we really wanted an eco-friendly fence. We always ask whether or not each fence company has an eco-friendly option available, but it seems to come down to vinyl or wood.

When we called the fence company our neighbor used they said they did in fact have an eco-friendly fencing option available. This fence company said that they had composite fence material called Timberwolf. The fence contractor showed us a couple of pieces of this composite material. It was very nice looking. It had the wood grain detailing and all, similar to a real wood, but it has a lifetime warranty similar to the vinyl fences that everyone sells and installs around here. I really liked this option as I think it would fit the look of our 1948 cottage much better than a vinyl fence.

For anyone who is interested in seeing more about this fence please feel free to look at the Western Fence Co. website. I linked to a picture of the white picket composite fence that we are considering.

  1. A fence is an important part of your property. Choosing one that will last a lifetime will save considerable expense over the years.
