Woodchip drop Willingdon/Eastbourne?

[Joe90]

Hey folks,

This coming week (commencing Monday 28th) I'm working in the Willingdon area of Eastbourne with a company I sub to and we could do with a place to drop some woodchip.

Eastbourne is nearly 300 miles from home for us so obviously we can't take it back to base.

If anybody can take it off our hands it'd be very much appreciated.

 

Cheers

Joe

i ,live in eastbourne so how about you just pass the job on to someone local to save you the hassle of a 300 mile journey ! not sure of a place you could tip in eastbourne as most of the companys have there yards about 30 mins away , the council have a chip yard about 5 mins from where your working but are a bit touchy about who uses it , il have a think !

theres quite a few allotments that take it but all the companys i sub to use them and they,ve probably got loads , must be a good job to travel 300 miles for ! ive been deadwooding pines in willingdon all week funnily enough !

cheers for rackin your brains fellas. Rang pj skips last week when we were down, they wanted about £10 a tonne to get rid of it for us. It's not my job, i'm just in on a day rate for a housing association. They're national but only have the one arb department based in lancs, hence the 300 mile journey at 3 this mornin!
