Title: specific internet search
Post by: Broadback on Jul 31, 2013, 08:21:57
I seem unable to make a specific internet search, certainly on Google. What I want is to look for used IBC storage tanks in North midlands/Staffordshire /Stoke-on-Trent. I get plenty of hits (though not all relevant) but the location bit seems totally ignored. Perhaps someone could help me with the way to word the search, please?

Now that is what I call a complicated definition. Unfortunately is still does not appear to hit the mark, it contains all sorts of things, but not what I really want. Many thanks for your help J!ll

Does Google Advanced Search (via options) work any better?

Gumtree seems to have some in the west midlands area http://www.gumtree.com/all/uk/ibc (found via google) not sure if that helps or not

You are looking to buy? secondhand?  ???

Yes as that reduces the cost considerably. Locally as the "postage"  is more costly than the item.
