johnc86 Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Iv seen people on here recomending bungies for use with the sack trucks. I think I know the ones they are refering to. Dad's used to use them for securing things to roof rack's. For all I know, they may still do. Where do you get them? I can't get hold of my dad to ask him, obviously .

johnmcga Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 I got mine from Woolworths a while back. Oh hold on, that's not a lot of use, is it? I reckon you'll find them in Halfords, B&Q, Homebase or Robert Dyas. Good luck! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hotmustard Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Just got a 4 pack for £1 in the Tesco's discounted section. Otherwise they do 2 for £3 in the car section. Poundland do singles in varying lengths, but the clips are fancier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josie's Cat Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 My bf recommended not going for the single bungees, but going to a motorbike shop or Halfords and getting a bungee net, that bikers use to tie down all their stuff on the back of a bike. Gonna check out the selection tomorrow, sounds better than lots of single cords though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Josie's Cat Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 That's excellent! I checked online and this fella seemed the most suitable Luggage net It's a tenner, but it seems quite good value compared to the amount of cords you can get for that. Plus it's easier, so Halfords it is!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

elias Posted June 21, 2009 Report Share Posted June 21, 2009 Has anybody ever used cling film to wrap stuff onto a sack truck? We've got some industrial stuff they use at work (we send things all over Europe with it, so it's pretty strong). Seems a relatively cheap way of doing it.
