Here are some frequently asked questions about our timber cutting service to help Bunnings Workshop members.

Is this service available at my local Bunnings?
You can check whether the timber cutting service is available at a nearby store by visiting the Bunnings website. Here’s how:
Can I bring my own piece of timber to be cut?
Due to the many variables associated with timber products, we can only cut products purchased from our stores.
When is the best time to visit a store for timber cutting?
Visiting at a quieter time will ensure faster service. It's best to avoid weekends and public holidays as many other D.I.Y. enthusiasts will also be looking to build their own projects.
What if I want to do the cutting at home?
Knowing what saw to use and how to use it is the key to success. Here are some useful guides to get you started:
What if I can't get my timber home?
We offer a number of options to get your products home safely. You can use our free courtesy trailer for up to two hours. If you need more time you can also hire a trailer, a ute or a van to suit your needs. We also offer a comprehensive delivery service to assist you in getting your purchases home. Most stores offer same day or next day service. Please contact your nearest store for details.
Please feel free to let me know if you have further questions about our helpful timber cutting service.

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Flik. It's awesome to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about our cutting service.
Unfortunately, our saws are only suitable for sheet and board products, and they are not capable of cutting a bar stool. If you were after a professional finish, it might be worth enlisting the services of a carpenter or utilising services such as Airtasker or hipages to advertise the job.
Please let me know if you have any questions.

Hi @shylaway,
Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community.
Unfortunately, the acoustic panelling is not able to be cut in store. You would have to cut it yourself using a circular saw.
Bunnings do offer courtesy trailers if you have a tow ball. You might like to enquire at the Service Desk as to the availability at your local store.
Additionally, Bunnings offer delivery services if you don't have a tow ball this can be organised through the Special Orders or Trade desks at your local store.
Let me know if you have any further questions.

Hi,
Does Bunnings cut this item to the size 172x45cm?

Welcome to the Bunnings Workshop community @Tommy85. It's marvellous to have you join us, and many thanks for your question about our timber-cutting service.
Unfortunately, due to its thickness, that panel is considered a benchtop. I'm sorry but we are unable to cut it on our in-store saws.
I recommend you cut it at home for the best results, and the Ryobi 1500W 184mm Corded Circular Saw would be suitable for this purpose. Here's a helpful guide: The D.I.Y. guide to the circular saw.
Please let me know if you have any questions.
