    Default Rocks / Stones Wanted

    Anyone in Melbourne, preferably northern suburbs know where I can get hold of lots of rocks/stones. I wanted to build a dry stone wall.

    Try one of the many new housing estates that are springing up everywhere.

    They always seems to be plenty of rocks dug up when they put in the drains.
    You will have to pay for them though, most of them get crushed to pave the roads.

    I may be a little too North but I've got any amount of rpcks, just drop in and pick them up.

    Just a tad. Would be cheaper to buy them locally than pay the petrol to get them.

    I have a 40 acre block near Adaminaby, a bit closer.
    You can have all the rock you need to build a wall, house and then a bit.

    Default Rocks and stones :-)

    Sticks and stones may break my bones but whips and chains excite me.

    Sorry 'bout that !!

    There's lots of rocks in the paddocks out Mikelham way, possibly not too far away from you. Just ask a friendly farmer out there.
    (I expect they'd love to get their rocks off! )
