Furniture from Recycled Wood
If you have large pieces of wood, for example a felled tree trunk, you could consider finding a local furniture maker that deals in such wood, for example Suar Wood Table.

There are no places in Singapore for households to recycle small amounts of wood.
Alternative
Freecycle / Give Away
For pieces in good conditions, some maker groups (eg Singapore Home DIY FB) may be interested in wood donations or deep discount sales.
There are also quite a lot of people giving away wooden pallets online .

Buy or Sell
Wood is sometimes “reclaimed” from fixtures or furniture and resold as raw material or as boards for shelves.
Second hand dealers and other buyers are usually interested in solid wood like teak, rosewood, walnut, and oak.
Items made from cheap wood like MDF (Medium Density Fiberboard), particle board, and laminated plywood have little resale value.

There are many industrial wood collection and recycling companies in Singapore. However they tend to deal in bulk and charge collection fees. Many specialise in wooden pallet purchase, refurbishment, and resale.
