Unwanted wool packing sheets

Richard from Rangiora

Hi, does anyone have spare wool packing sheets they'd like me to take off their hands? The sheets I'm familiar with are 50-100 cm long, 20-30 cm wide and about 1/2 a cm thick. Bigger sheets will also be fine. I'm happy to pop around and take them off your hands.
Thanks
