Hi,
Does anyone know a place to buy bagged paver sand at Melbourne North area. Checked with Bunning. They are out of stock at the moment. Also would like to know the rough price as well.
Thanks in advance.

BTW, I found in some place people put "paver locker" into the gaps. Is this the same as gap sand? Or just a fancy name for gap sand??

Don't worry about what they are calling it it will do the job fine. I mean it's not like there is a paver locking sand mine if you get what I mean Just check it out yourself and say I want that one For under the pavers use some sort of sand that is used by brickies or plasterers. most of those bond well and form a good base. I normally use the left over for sweeping into the gaps. once it is dry it will sweep in fine. don't get hung up on what you are using for a small job you are doing yourself. It will work out well enough Re: Bagged paver sand 11Nov 14, 2008 11:28 am Thanks Fu. Unfortunately, the builder hasn't leaven any sand behind. Will go around shopping this weekend!
