Free plastic plant pots

Hi all,

I used to work for 'the nations biggest garden centre chain'. :j

When sorting through plants, any that were dead were disposed of in one of the skips, along with the pots.

Now, if you were to go along and ask politely to a member of staff at any large garden centre, you may well be allowed to take some of the HUGE amount of plastic pots that fill their skips. And there were huge numbers thrown each week.

Worth a polite ask anyway, to anybody looking for pots.

b&q have wire cages outside their exits with lots of plastic pots and trays in them for you to take away too, they are outside, not under the canopy bit at the exits, you would walk past them if you dont know they are there
