Googles Ah, are these a woven type material (like a fine
poly-tarp?). If they are I just bought 5 x of that type from Wickes .

No, these ones (from Tuckers) are just very thick polythene and fine for
containing rubble though not see through.


Ah, ok.

Sharp things will puncture
them, but the cuts don't tear readily.


Yeah, I broke up a small concrete slab yesterday and it's currently
sitting in a heap of ~20 h/d poly rubble sacks. A couple of tricks are
to break all the lumps down into smaller bits and put some smaller
stuff in the bag first. We had to double bag a few and some of these
bags were on the 3rd or 4th load.

(Anyone in Nth London / Herts want about 4sq m worth of clean
hardcore)?

I have some of the woven
polypropylene type too because one type of horse bedding (Megazorb,
pelletised water paper I think) comes in them.


Handy. These things aren't cheap and it's great if you can pick up
some that would be otherwise dumped.
