Filter sand can be purchased from pool shops or from online distributors such as "intheswim.com". Sand for the bottom of a pool can be purchased from some sand and gravel quarries. Look in your yellow pages. Ask for masonary sand for Swimming Pools. It is sold by the ton. When I bought mine there was a minimum payment of 1 ton. I picked up my sand in a pickup truck 1 ton at a time.(four trips) Delivery was available, for a delivery fee. Ask about it when you call the quarry.
