True Life Stories

avoid being ripped off in Bulgaria!

.

Sand and Chippings.

.

.The price of building materials can vary a lot in Bulgaria depending on

.who you buy from.

.

.There are many obvious scams like paying for 10 ton of sand and actually

.only getting 9 ton, this happens all over the World.

.

.Ask the driver for the loading sheet, it will state on it how much sand

.was loaded (but not necessarily what was delivered.

.

.Anyway, I researched this well and found the cheapest place near to me

.to have sand and chippings delivered was Silistra.

.

.Even after the extra cost for transport the sand and chippings were a lot cheaper.

.

.Then I met a local English man who told me that the locals just dig

.sand from a nearby pit and mine the chippings.

.

.He went on to say that all villages have such sites.

.

.He showed me where my local site was and sure enough you can just dig the sand.

.

.The chippings were on a different site, a lot of chippings and stone

.were just lying on the floor.
