Im trying to find some cheap rubber mats/rubber roll.

Any advise on the cheapest way to mat one, maybe two boxes? and where to get it from?

Thankyou!
 
I've just bought 2 new mats and after looking around and online the cheapest I found is my local feed merchants. They were £29 each but heavy doesn't come into it!! Took 3 of us to load them into the van and alot of swearing and shouting to get them into the stable!!! At least I know they won't be slipping anytime soon!!!
 
Mine were free! I got strips of old conveyor belt from a local quarry. They always have some old stuff spare and are generally happy to just give it away to nice ladies who smile nicely. It's very heavy stuff, and completely smooth on both sides, but does the job.
 
Just a word of warning that quite a few rubber mats will soak up the urine and end up stinking or wear badly so that they need replacing. These people are reasonably priced (although cant remember what it was specifically for each mat) and their mats are really good quality and they even come and fit them for you.

I have just been on this website. doesnt have a price but will call them. as well as fitting them the also hae a relocation service so if u move they will move, disinfect and re fit at the new place! FANTASTIC!!!

Thanks for the advise!!

That's funny yesterday I was asking one of the livieries where she got her long strips from cos they were great for the doorways and she said the same!!! They are really good thick pieces of rubber and she paid nothing for them!!
