Know anywhere theres cheap Sleepers for sale?

THE LINK WALSH

Lads/ladies,its my first time posting a thread on this page,ive a big garden of around 3/4 of an acre that im finding it hard to fill and keep under control,ive two good size rosebeds in for the last 5/6 Years but theyve grown wild and im sick trying to care for them so im going to take them out and build two big raised beds in thier place,sleepers need to be bought for this purpose,id need around 8 and dont want to be paying €20-25 each for them,any suggestions?

Also,should i go into the ground and remove all the ball roots of the rose bushes or just cut them low and leave them there,id imagine ill need to get most of the roots out which will be a big job,ive about 45 rosebushes.

Are you looking for the propper/reclaimed sleepers that usually have creasote in them or just the pressure treated timber that gardening shops sell,they say are propper railway sleepers,but they aint.

The reclaimed sleepers can be got in bulk and fairly cheaply off of donedeal,in the gardening section and also the building materials section.;)
