I get mine via Central Wool Growers at Stamford. They delivered about 3 weeks ago. They will collect but I drop mine into Bill Harvey at Flordon as it gets them out the way and he isn't that far for me (might be a drag for you). Them shedders not doing as they should?

Your Norfolk collection centre is, as said above, George Harvey, Flordon (07771 522347).
You'll need to register with the BWMB first, I suppose
Give Julie Gregg, at CWG Stamford, a ring (01780 481788), she'll sort it out for you.

+1 for Julie, she'll sort it no bother.

You have to cast a spell of Purest Magick at Midnight on Midsummer's Eve to the Wool Pixies.
Otherwise, try ringing wool service provider of your choice and if you're lucky they might acknowledge you. ..

Got plenty here if your looking for a drive. PS. Be quick they are filling fast
Is it really that hard to get wool sacks
I can go into the wool collection centre and help myself to as many as i want or pick then up from our local farm coop.
If you dont have a lot and arent going to sell to the wool board a tote bag wil do

Might just be a tad different over our way rather than Denbighshire @hendrebc. Stamford is about a 3 hour drive for me and I can only think of one flock of sheep I would pass on the way. Might be a bit different for @spin cycle because he is in Chelsea By Sea wealthy bit of Norfolk so lifestyle owners might have sheep. Here they have to hire a van to drop off the sacks and when I spoke to the driver he said he had been on the road 4 hours and I was his second drop!
I hadnt thought of that. Makes sense id never thought that they would be hard to get hold of to be honest

i'll get some next sheep discussion group
....everywhere is 40 miles from mequite a few sheep round here...but someone with 50 locally approached me to poss put his on my muckheap
...think i'll just pop in a heap in barn for now.....flordon is 40 milesStart with 2 big holes and stitch them together.
Thats what BWMB do.
Unless you get the big bags, which are made from 3 holes.
We picked ours up from Stamford when we delivered last years wool it worked really well and I can pick which ones I want and don't end up with all the old ones with holes in and no numbers

Not with Romneys.........25 fleeces make the sacks heavier enough.
