    if you try your local council recycling yard they may have some i know our one in hampshire has quite a few now and again, various sizes and colours, they will usually either let you have them for a small donation to their tea fund, and help you load them into your transport:rolleyes:

    UPDATE - Emailed my 2 local councils enquiring about buying/free slabs. No luck. One said they have not sold them for over 10 years, the second recycles all their slabs.

    Wrote a few cheeky emails to block paving companies, offering my drive as a 'showdrive' in return for a freebie..no luck.

    Looks like freecycle or a trip down Wickes!!!

    Hi,

    My extension is nearly finished, are there any companies offering free kitchens so they can use my house as a show room.

    Hi

    If you or a family belong to a company you could try https://www.eastex.org.uk

    they have companies offering things that they no longer need, ie water tanks, wood for wood burners, slabs etc

    I think but am not entirely sure that its only open to companies and not to individuals.

    Regards

    Sarah

    PS dont know about any kitchens - sorry
