Trench Blocks...where?!?!?!

[dirty boy]

My groundworker has asked me to get 22 x 'trench blocks' 440x300x225 7N

I'm really struggling to find them?

Can anyone offer any advice please?

Also, where's best to get 'common bricks' from?

This is harder than I expected lol!

Where are you?

Standard Thermalite/Celcon Trench blocks at 300mm wide are 3.6N, but 7N are available, usually to order. I know we stock the Thermalite ones at 3.6N, if you wanted 7N, you'd have to buy full packs.

"Common" bricks at 65mm would generally be LBC Frogged Commons. If you just want cheap bricks, rejects are cheaper, if he wants frogged ones to cut thinner, go for LBC Regrades.

If it threatens to slow the project just get 100mm concrete blocks , double the number of course .

Many thanks, i've got rejects, much cheaper, so thank you. Also, when I found those, I asked about the trench blocks and they had some, so went for it.

Thanks again, got lucky on the blocks.
