Hi Tara, check out your big box stores. On a sale I got my 6x8 foot privacy fence panels for only about $25 a piece!

  TY for your input! Wayfair and Walmart have privacy fabric tarps 6' x 50' for around 22 dollars each. One of my concerns is that I also need several steel/wood poles for support to zip tie the privacy tarp to. I'm trying to cut costs as much as possible and have a large fence line area to cover.

How about pallets? Low cost or free in some areas. The most important part is setting the posts. I would hire the post hole digging out, as it is back braking work.

  Thank you. I have considered pallet fencing but it isn't private enough for my needs.

  Then hop onto Craig's list, freecycle.org or Nextdoor.com to see what you can find for free or low cost.
