So, I requested that we do a return and a refund. If the mix-up happened once, it will likely happen again if I order a replacement right now. To their credit, they offered to put a note on the order for the warehouse to verify the replacement would be the correct item, but I wasn’t convinced that it’ll work. To be honest, I’m not confident they’ll be able to send a replacement without the same problem happening again. I just got off the phone with my supplier. There are no slots and no holes other than at the two ends. I ordered perforated drainage pipe and received non-perforated drainage pipe. Well, a truck carrier dropped off the coil today and I didn’t check the pipe closely enough before they left. I paid a small premium for the coil over what it costs at the home center, but not a lot more, and it seemed worth it for the time and effort savings. I thought I’d use what I need and toss the remainder into storage or the garage attic for next year. I figured that maybe a 100-foot coil from my industrial supplier would be a good idea, rather than picking up 10-foot sections from the local home center. I need about 40′ of perforated drainage pipe for an upcoming experimental sub-irrigated wicking planter project, and will likely need more later in the season. I’ve been ordering supplies online, to avoid having to make multiple small trips to the home centers given COVID-19-related travel and shopping restrictions. Shown here is a 100-foot coil of 4″ unperforated drainage pipe.
