Howdy,

Got a party on soon for about 80 guests (assume 350+ beers, 40 odd bottles of wine to chill), drinks will be chilled/served in tubs of ice. So i'm going to need a buttload of ice.

Anyone know of somewhere that would do bulk ice in the Wyong/Central Coast NSW area?

Event is on a farm and there wouldn't be an option to do an ice run once the event started, so i'm thinkin I will buy enough ice to fill each drinks tub, and store enough excess ice for top ups during the evening in a couple of large cooler boxes.

Anyone that's been in charge of ice at a similar event care to offer an opinion??
 
I've always gotten ice from a petrol station or Coles, never needed bulk ice before.

Sneak into a nearby hotel and take advantage off the guests' ice machine? :p
 
If you've got a fisherman's co-op near by, go hit them up
I got a heap for my wedding, probably 2 wheelie bins full for about $20
 
try a local club, they have big ice machines and may sell bulk.
 
+1 For Fishos coop, used to get ute loads for cheap
 
Cheer guys, there looks to be a Co-op on central coast i'll hit them up and see if they'll oblige otherwise Da-ice looks like it would be a goer also.
