Where to buy planters?

Hello,

I need to re-pot my green bamboo plants after having them for a year. They've gone from small to pretty big so they need bigger planters I think (I want to encourage them to grow for screening).

Where can I get large, deep, rectangular planters from that isn't going to costs me hundreds and hundreds of pounds for each one? Maybe a corner one too? They're already in 1m long by about 30cm high ones.

I don't mind if they're plastic as long as they're not really ugly!

Also is this a bad time of year to do it?

Thank you from a very novice gardener!

Tricky time of year. B and q might be your friend here. They did have some with hidden wheels.
I do try to avoid as much plastic as possible. But it does have its place, like heavy planters.

IKEA did have some lovely wooden ones, but I don’t know if they still do. The alternative is to get a few more smaller ones and split the plants you have

My friend picked up some old decking from Freecycle and made some for hers.
