You could Google around and contact different suppliers: it’s easy enough, but time-consuming.
Maybe call a national network: one point of contact, but limited to their supply and prices.
There are online marketplaces: but who are you going to talk to if there’s an issue?
Your clients rely on you to bring the right people into their project team. When they need off-site biodiversity units, we make the supplier search straightforward.
Share your requirements with Biodiversity Units UK. We’ll source suitable options at no cost, with optional paid support for the transaction and planning paperwork.
