Hi,

I'm looking for 6" PVC pipe that I can buy by the foot online. The
only place that I can find it locally (Fergusons in Portland Oregon)
sells it in 20' lengths which is waaaayyyy more than I need.

Does anyone know of any websites that sell this size by foot online?
Or if you live in Portland, do you know of any brick and mortar stores
that sell it in shorter lengths?

Thanks.

You've got to be kidding! Why would anyone sell 6"engths! Find a
contractor and search for sraps. There aren't many scrap dealres
online!

He didn't ask for 6" lengths. He needs 1' lengths, and is looking for less
than 20' total, which is the shortest length he can find 6" round PVC.
That's a pretty tall order, as there aren't very many people looking for 6"
diameter PVC, and certainly not at the normal retail levels.


To the OP: Find out who's using 6" PVC pipe, and see if they have any scrap
left from some of their jobs. Unless they're also using it for short lengths
like whatever you have planned for it, they may be willing to part with
some.

Just out of curiosity, what are you planning on using it for that either 6"
flexible tubing or 4" PVC (both commonly available) can't be used for? Could
there be some other way to accomplish what you are trying to do?

Try plumbing supply houses and plumbing contractors that
install/repair mains in neighborhoods. They will probably be happy
to unload such a small piece if they have one.
