Plan to fill our raised veg planters.May need at least 2-3 bulk bags to fill it
To keep the costs down-who delivers cheapest screened topsoil ideally blended with compost

Also do not think cheapest = best , check their rating for quality before you spend your hard earned cash0

While cheap may do for somethings good topsoil is worth investing in.You can get cheap from a builders merchant but you stand the risk of perenial weeds that will be eternal work.From a good plant nursery a bit more but it will be the good stuff.Though a lifetime elderly gardener used the recycled compost from the Recycling depot. I've not had much trust in it with no proof but I know what I've slung in those skips. He was growing magnificent veg from it. Not the cheapest nor the most expensive.
I can rise and shine - just not at the same time!

I use a local aggregates delivery firm, who also do top soil and soil/compost mixtures, for my clients. Loose tipping tends to be cheaper than bulk bags. I put down a large cheap tarpaulin for it to be tipped onto. Some bulk bag deliverers are quite particular about how and where they will deliver.
