All yard accessories CHEAP

[lauren89]

I have just moved to a new yard of my own. Does anyone know where I can get wheel barrow, stable folks, ect for cheap.

Please help. x

The local auction site has often got stuff, but at your new yard there may be bits and pieces to keep you going.
B&Q or Homebase have barrows, £20, or Jewson for good ones at £40., you can get a little brush from local [ethnic] hardware type store, but shavings forks are specialised and will be found at saddlers/feedstore,

I wouldn't go neccesarily for CHEAP but look at value for money... not necessarily the same thing.

As above I swear by DIY / Builders stores for wheelbarrows and even brooms - you want decent handles and tough, long flicky bristles... the ones you find at horsey shops tend to be a bit pathetic. As for the wheelbarrows... again the horsey plastic ones tend to bend and fall apart and are rubbish for carrying large quanitities of anything... I can get 4 bales of hay on my metal builders one without it bending / falling over.

Shavings fork wise - invest in a fynalite one. they're great and for a normal fork, definately head to your horsey store - they will have lightweight but durable ones and they are worth the money you pay. Also invest in a LARGE plastic shovel. not the small pathetic ones that you can barely get half a dropping on...

Shovels, forks and brushes are cheap at Wilkinsons.

Aldi specials are very good they are doing various builders stuff ATM like tub trugs, buckets, rubber gloves and yard brooms (although I found this one a bit heavy). Best yard broom I ever had came from Lidl, £4!
