    Default Really random question.

    Is there anywhere you can buy sand online and get it delivered?(in Brisbane) I really want to buy some and don't have any transport of my own and want to build a sandpit. And suggestions are greatly appreciated. TIA.

    You could try calling your local landscaping supply shop? My local one delivers, and I'm pretty sure they have sand. You may be able to pay over the phone with a credit card.

    I agree that landscaping supplies places would often deliver.

    But you'd have to compare the price of hiring a ute versus delivery.

    I remember when we bought the sand, there was either the cheaper option of shovelling it on the back of the ute or getting it in bags and the bag option was more expensive.

    I remember being surprised at how expensive sandpit sand was.
