Browse Forums Landscape & Garden Design 1 Sep 15, 2012 10:28 pm Hi, just wondering if anyone can recommend a bulk garden soil, crushed rock, pebble supplier for South Morang (North - North/East suburbs). Rang a few garden suppliers in our area and it can be quite pricey. Need 5 meters plus so wondering if anyone knows of a bulk supplier.

Where did you get that price from, if you dont mind sharing. Thanks Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.

The Green Centre in Keilor Dear Park Garden Supplies Dear Park are closer to me, so deliver is a little less ($30 for the green centre - $10 for dear park) Re: Bulk Garden Soil Supplier -Melb 9Sep 18, 2012 12:36 pm humble ring09 Hi Humble, Thats the cheapest price, I have rung quite a few nurseries in our area and the cheapest I could get was $52.80 cubic mtr.

Deer Park, $45 for Garden Mix and $44 for crushed rock - delvery $85 So thank you for the info. Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.

Pretty good, happy with the result. I hope you had a dingo or kanga to move all that soil, here I thought 5 cubes was a lot We are hopefully getting ours this weekend, depends on how much rain we get on Friday, as we dont want the dingo guy to dig up the front yard too much getting all that soil down the back. I hate it when it's nice and sunny all week and on the Friday or the weekend we get rain and it muds it all up. Site Start: 10th September, 2010 PCI : Friday 27th January, 2011.
