Where to buy a bollard or traffic cone?

Where could I buy a bollard or a traffic cone for outside? It's for outside the house to stop random people parking near the gate entrance! A motor place or some construction supplier? I'm being serious!

Just "borrow" one.

Get drunk and walk home within 2 miles of a construction site. Youre guaranteed to end up with one

Probably could get them off a motor factors. Just rob one and fill it with concrete so the students wont rob it off ya

Mr. Denton · 05-08-2011 09:31PM

Were you never a student? You just rob one on the way home from the pub. Cost €0.00

look in the bins and back gardens of 1st year college students, you'll find plenty for free.

Doubt students could rob it, live near a rural area yet randomers still park outside or try to turn the car outside the gate.

KeithM89_old · 05-08-2011 09:33PM

Iv one in my bedroom i could sell to you for about €2/300. Deal??

Available in most builders merchants, by the way you're not entitled to reserve the parking space outside your house.

epgc3fyqirnbsx · 05-08-2011 09:34PM

whats wrong with them turning at the gate?

Yes I was once a student, but have known fellow friends and students to do so on the way home from the pub and take photos, but I have never taken part in such a thing! I'm a good girl!

ShadowHearth · 05-08-2011 09:35PM

Needed one of those myself. For safety in car park. You know when you try to park your car, but it constantly going in circles FFs.

I think you're a wussy student looking to look cool for your mates/room mates because you cant nick one like every other student you are trying to save face by buying one

for shame!

Even out in the countryside thought that only applied to suburbs and city houses? Often get a horse or a cow on the loose! Use to have a iron rope but kept falling apart and still didn't stop a cow or a horse coming in the gate! Often get tractors taking up too much space on the road and they pull into the gate and wrecks the ground! So a traffic cone/cones might be the answer might stop them from coming in if its a red or orange cone! Make them more considerate of our property!

To those who are suggesting stealing one.......what happens when there's an accident at the proper location of the cone due to it being missing ?

Will you acknowledge your responsibility and pay all costs associated with the accident, along with the OP ?

Head out tonight OP and "borrow" one from the council

Sure students are like magpies when they see these

If the OP was looking for a serious answer, they would have gone to Commuting forum or their regional forum. Definitely not here

Won't be out tonight maybe tomorrow night, I see what I can do but will probably buy one where ever I can get my hands on one! Really didn't know that. I wasn't sure what forum to put the thread in, thought I can a wider outlook on it. Was going to put it on the motor forum but wasn't sure. Mods can move the thread if they think its more suitable in some other forum!?:o

There are no consequences to stealing a traffic cone or I'd be in the Joy by now

I'm a lady! Doubt they rob it would they? Not if I put a sign up saying builder's headquarters!

Just take one out of your local pond or canal/river. Always handy when you are short of a few traffic cones and the odd shopping trolley.

Run_to_da_hills · 05-08-2011 09:48PM

The Gardai will lend you traffic cones if you have a good reason. We use to borrow them for Motorbike Rallys and would drop them back to the station the following day.

starlit · 05-08-2011 09:48PM

I have looked up websites online for traffic cones but doesn't show much in the google search! Only yellow bollards!
