    Hi all
    I need to buy compost and 30cm dia plus pots online because I can't get them myself. The plan is oh will then lift them to where I need them. Any ideas?

    I've found this for £1 but is it ok for general use?

    Define general use!
    It's not the best obviously but if you're limited on having stuff delivered then it's certainly an option. I think I'd go for something a bit better. Have a look through the compost supplier threads for a better idea of performance and what's about

      Amazon is a good starting place, although the delivery charges on the compost will need to be watched.

      I have also used thegardensuperstore.co.uk and was very impressed by the quality of the goods as well as the service.

          @Chimneyrose do you have a local hardware, I ordered 12 bags from my local shop 1 pound delivery and he will stack it where I tell him to. may be slightly more expensive 3 bags 11 pound, 60 litre bags, but the convenience is worth it to me.

            We have a small local family run nursery near us, any order over £50 is free delivery and below £50 is £5.00.
