Provide Samples

After you have reviewed the specifications and have determined that your material meets them, Trex^® needs to see and evaluate a sample.

Using a gallon-size Ziploc bag, please send a sample of your material to one of our facilities.

Include the following information on the sample:

1. Type of material and the percent mixture
2. The number of loads available for per week
3. The name of the company and phone number
4. Location of the supply
5. Contact information (name, phone number, address)

Once your sample is received and analyzed, we will contact you. If your material meets our requirements, we will send a truck with an open-top trailer to your facility to pickup one trial load of material.

The trial load will be used to determine the value of the material. Using an engineering model, we will evaluate the material by freight, moisture, load weight, the negative or positive effects on processing and production costs, location of the pickup facility, etc. Once the value is defined, Trex will contact your company and present you with a purchasing price. The expressed price is configured on the purchase of a bone dry ton (BDT) with the option of contractual agreements.
