wish our current plans we are lloking at a monster 3-5000 gallon pond requiring atleast a 25 x 30 liner, does anyone have any look resorces for getting liners? Everywhere we look due to the weight we are going to end up paying just as much for shipping as the liner...

I bought my first liner from an East Coast supplier and the freight was not that bad. At least you are already 2000 miles closer.

I bought mine from an ebay retailer. I think it was called Price Busters. Anyhow there are several retailers on ebay that have free shipping with their liners.

Correction on that. I looked it up and it was Price Bully. I ordered it and it arrived at my house in less than 48hrs. from ordering. It was Firestone brand and With the free shipping it cost about 40 cents a square foot. Local shops wanted twice that much.

Home Depot is $.70 a square foot. But it was 55 mil thick, most on-line liners are only 45 mil thick. I have both and used a micrometer to verify this.

Thanks! Price Busters has teh best right now, 15x15 free shipping, but nothing bigger SO sounds like home depot it is, little thicker, little more expensive, not frieght

Being 20% thicker, buys a lot of insurance against a tear, I think it is worth the extra cost. They have it in 50' X 15' wide rolls. You can get any length cut up to 50'.

Check Webb's water gardens- Right now they are not charging freight on oversized liners plus they have a 5% discount on all orders. They are located just above Baltimore so they are close by.

I've been shopping too. Need a 25X35. Best price I've found is PondDepot.net, an Ebay store. Free shipping w/no residential charge, but probably a liftgate charge. 123Ponds has a price match guarantee so they'd be comparable.
