Default Bubble Wrap?

Where can I buy a big roll of bubble wrap from? I live in Kent but are there any chain stores that do it? I'm trying to send a bodykit to Wales and its proving a nightmare, so any suggestions on how to do that would be great too...

Thanks very much,

Katie x

If you go into one of these storage places, such as the Big Yellow Warehouse place they sell it! I picked up a MASSIVE reel for Ł20

Homebase do it.

Cut off as much as you want then tell the person at the desk half what you actually took

Pareclforce picked up a front bumper from my house and delivered it to scotland for Ł15 i think.Maybe you have to pack it in 2 parcels.But i'm sure they'd do it.
