Recommend a bubble wrap, please?

2013yearofthehouse

Not sure if this is allowed on here, but can anyone recommend who to buy bubble wrap from on ebay (or elsewhere if it's competitively priced)?

I've always bought it on ebay and never had a problem, but today the roll I received had been bent in half (well, more U-shaped as best you can bend a roll of bubble wrap!) before they wrapped it up, so the middle bubbles are all popped. I haven't bought any in years and the company I bought from then seems to have stopped selling.

I'm after 20m of 750m long.

Thanks

I get bubble wrap, boxes, etc. from a local packaging company as some packaging is of awful quality. It is probably not the cheapest but good and convenient for popping over to pick some up. Try searching for local packaging companies in yellow pages or on the web. It's worth ringing a few as prices vary a lot.

I pay about 16.50 including VAT for 100m x 750mm small bubble.

Although it's not a certain supply, you can sometimes pick up bubble wrap on freecycle. I've obtained and given it away this way at different times.

I get mine from a local market stall that generally deals with gardening stuff - it seems gardeners use it to insulate greenhouses and/or protect plants from frost.

A roll that size would only cost a couple of quid - big bubbles or small bubbles, they sell both.

I buy mine from ODL Packaging. They don't sell them in the smaller quantity you want but it won't go off.

Also if you register with them you get 5% off. They also sell on Ebay.

I don't use much, but when I do I get it from Poundland.
