Recently (2 weeks ago) found some 10’ PT decking to affect some repairs at Home Depot in Tilton, NH on a Thursday. About 30 boards left on a pallet that I needed 6 of. The supplies, when they’re in, go fast and are very green.

I reached out to the Meredith DPW director about replacing broken/missing uprights at the dock at Shep Browns several weeks back. He told me it was difficult to get the wood and the news about shortages was just coming out then. It's fixed now with high quality wood. Not the junk you get at Home Depot.
