When you need a reliable alternative to traditional retail channels, sourcing direct ensures you pay wholesale trade prices on every single post. ## Frequently Asked Questions ### What are the exact applications for a 0.90m galvanised post? These 900mm posts are highly versatile, widely used for sediment and silt control on construction sites, low-height exclusion fencing, forestry guards, and securing tree protection zones. ### Can I buy these posts in bulk slings? Yes. We specialise in bulk container-direct supply. Our star droppers are packaged in industry-standard bundles and slings, perfectly suited for transport to remote properties or active civil construction sites. ### Are they hot-dip galvanised or electro-galvanised? Our 1.86 kg/m medium star posts are hot-dip galvanised. This process provides a significantly thicker zinc coating compared to electro-galvanising, offering premium rust protection in damp, harsh paddock conditions. ### Do you deliver to regional areas?
