    Looking for expanded PVC foam board supplier
    I'm looking to build some things, and am hoping someone has some experience with buying the PVC foam board online. Or if there's somewhere around a city that would typically carry it in thicknesses that'd be good for cages that'd be great too. I'd like to find a place that will do the cuts for me as well, since I don't have access to those sorts of tools and couldn't cut a straight line if my life depended on it.

    Thanks in advance!

    Do a search for plastic sheets in your state.
    I have found 1/2" sheets for $140-75. So call around to make sure you get the best price.

    If you have a skill saw you can cut straight lines with ease! Use a chalk line and mark a relatively straight line, cut as close as you can with the skill saw. Use the factory edge (the side you didnt cut) as your straight edge and run the skill saw along it!

    We have a distributor here in Daytona and the lady I talked to was GREAT! Even mailed me 12"x12" samples of their materials so I could chose.

    Funny thing, in the craigslist for virginia about two months ago, someone was trying to move 100 sheets of expanded pvc for cheap.... I tried to contact him to see if he would ship and he said no.

    It was richmond VA, and the add is no longer available.....

    Hate to bring up such an old thread but has anyone had any success getting this stuff lately at a reasonable price? If so, where did you get it.
    Thanks,

    I don't think it's the price of the product as much as it is the shipping costs that'll drain your wallet.

    Here is one online source.

    go to www.interstateplastics.com On the main page under the heading of Plastic sheets you will find PVC sheet and Expanded sheet. Click on that. the third one down should be "BLACK EXPANDED PVC SHEET". click on it. there will be a calculator that can help you figure out what it will cost for exactly what you're wanting. You can also figure out the shipping cost, Which I think is Very cool!! I hope this helps.

    P.S. In order to get the shipping quote you will have to add everything to your cart. Don't worry though, cause you don't have to complete the order to get the quote.
