Our local homebase does, but local BnQ doesnt. Depends on the location, some charge per cut now too.

Do you have a local timber merchant nearby? Or somewhere that specialises in that sort of building materials, they will usually cut up materials etc.
Usually far better prices than the "DIY" stores.
If not, a jack-saw and two trolleys in the Wickes carpark is lo-cost

B+Q Warehouse stores have cutting service but smaller stores don't. They won't cut treated timber though.

Always give them a ring 1st though. The number of times I've been to one of my local B&Q Warehouses (I have 3 within 20 minutes!) and they
haven't had anyone "trained" to use the saw. Pain in the backside!
