I need to purchase around 3 tonnes of topsoil and 1.5 tonnes of compost
for some new raised beds.
I have some friends and workmates that have purchased topsoil in the
last couple of years and all ended up with clay stuff. As the raised
beds are to get away from the heavy clay we have i dont want to make
the same mistake.
Does anyone know of a good supplier in the Bristol area?
Otherwise i guess its the rowlawn stuff, but seems expensive.

We got ours from Dandy's. They're from Chester and deliver everywhere
in the UK. At first I thought I'd get it from the council. But friends
told me it wasn't good. We got 2 tons and we are really happy with it.
Got it in the spring and all what came out of it was nettles - and
maybe these came out of the compost or manure I put in with it. I
recommend it. They delivered fast and for 81 squids, I was happy. I
know you can get cheaper - but this is quality stuff.
