Our Sharp Sand Bulk Bag provides coarse, washed sand ideal for building, paving, and landscaping projects where strength and durability are needed. Coarser than building sand, it adds extra strength to mortar and concrete, making it perfect for laying patio slabs, block paving, or sand screed beds.

Sharp sand drains freely, making it suitable for gardens and landscaping and can be easily barrowed in smaller amounts as required.

Turnbull Washed Sharp Sand is locally sourced from naturally occurring materials, so colour and texture may vary. Supplied in a bulk bag, the sand stays clean and ready for use, with free kerbside delivery included.
