Scaffolding boards

Does anyone know where I can obtain some scaffolding boards
so that I can build a raised vegetable bed in the garden?

Jewsons??

Can' you build a little wall, Mickey?...
Maybe housebricks are easier to get hold of, and cheaper?
Maybe not, of course.

know anyone who works for a scaffolding company

May be cheaper to buy decking boards and make raised beds from these,also would look nicer

Good idea, PP....I did that very thing to create a raised border!

They used to sell railway sleepers at that place in Ince, behind the KFC sort of thing.

The thing with railway sleepers is that they may have been coated with something nasty to preserve them - they will continually leech out bad stuff for years to come.

aye, and carrying a couple home makes your back ache for a good twenty minutes.

Hmmmmmmm., I never thought of that, Veggie. My brain cells seem to be dying off at a faster pace these days!

Hardwood sleepers

Bit of a drive for you but I use these guys

Alternativly could you not use concrete fence panels with cut down posts concreted in??

Railway sleepers make damm good firewood,thats if you have a saw that will cut them,

Building site, after hours of course.

Are they "borrowed" to order

I've used plastic for my raised beds.I got them from a company called"Link-A-Bord".A bit expensive but they'll last for ever.
