    Hey All,

    Anyone know where I can get some old turf/fertilizer bags in the Drogheda or surrounding area.

    Need to bag some stones at my house, thanks in advance.

    25kg and up.

    Was looking to bag the stones in relatively small bags as it'd be easier to shift them.

    I live in a terrace house

    There should be plenty of 25kg meal bags around. Especially in February when farmers would be buying a few bags of calf starter etc
