We're after some plain concrete/cement paving slabs for paths in our
vegetable patch, where's likely to be the cheapest place to get them?
We need quite a few, say 60 or 70 500mm square slabs.

B&Q have 400mm square slabs at just over $1 each, is this likely to be
as good as anywhere?


Our Local Authority refuse site has a section for paving slabs for
reuse - I
think that you can remove them if they are there. I have no idea
whether
they charge for them, though, it's highly likely that they do, but they
should be cheaper than buying new.

A couple of people have suggested local authority, I'll try asking
them, thanks. Thanks for all the responses in this thread.


Just to clarify my post - this is an area in the tip where people can leave
their old paving slabs for others to take and use, not the re-use of
ex-council hi-spec municipal slabs.
