I'm not sure how many you are looking for, but here's a link directly to bj longs. They don't have pricing or minimum order info where I could see it on their website, but you might want to give them a call to see what they can do for you. They have an 800 number on the website.

Pipe Cleaners for Industrial, Arts & Crafts, Tobacco

Somewhere, a long long time ago, (in a galaxy far far away), I had seen giant spools of pipe cleaner "bulk" for sale. You had to cut the wire into individual pieces. I can't for the life of me find it (or remember). Does anyone know about this?

A roll you could cut yourself would be good for the longer churchwardens. They don't list a roll on their website, but I wonder if it is something bjlongs has? Perhaps you could get a roll from a craft supplier as I know pipe cleaners are used for different crafts. I can't find anything with a quick search on the web though.

Found it - its available on Cup O Joes
Standard Pipe Cleaner 50 foot coil - pcs50
50 foot coil for $7.99, by my math it works out to less than 100 normal length cleaners, so twice the cost of a pack. Inflation! Damn thing used to be cheaper in the good ol' days.

It may make sense if you need extra long lengths; clean the churchwarden, or snake out the sewer pipe ...

I don't even want to think about what the cat would do with this...
