UK Coroplast - Nowhere To Be Found!

Try as I might I cannot find any coroplast supplier near me. The ones that will deliver all charge a fortune and I wouldn't be making any savings, on the shop bought indoor houses.

What would be my next best bet after a C&C cage for my 2 boys?
 
just use the cubes and lay down some corrogated cardboard instead. Just break apart some shipping boxes. Then you can put plastic if you dont have a good long lasting supply of cardboard or just leave it if you do. Then add a generous supply of newpaper. Add bedding and you are all set. You can tape the cardboard if you want to, though I'm too lazy to. Also its a good idea to put two layers on top levels. It doesn't look as pretty as coroplast but you can cover it from the outside with decorative stuff.
 
I just saw another post and it reminded me that you could also use Linoleum instead. Hope this helps!
 
Try Amari plastics.. they were brill withg me and are all over the country - i thold them what i was using it for and they gave me loads free!!! That was in leeds - i know there's one in manchester/oldham... i'll have a check for you and get back to you in a sec... :)
 
I'm not sure if this is near you - i typed in south devon and it gave me bristol - may not cost so much.. dunno.. worth a try - esp. if they let you have it free - or they may he able to give you a number. the people in leeds were really nice!!

Hiya

Thank you so much for your help. Bristol is about 2 hours away from where I am, but I'll give them a ring and see what they say.

Thanks again.
 
glad i could help.
keep us posted on whether you get any or not :)
 
Blossom, I used linoleum which works fantastically
 
Hi Piglet

I'd be really interested in seeing a piccie of your cage please if you have one, just so I can see how it has worked out.

Many thanks.

That's where I got mine from. They charged £7 for (I think) 5 foot by 9 foot (the minimum size they do).
