Are you looking to photograph something specific?

The way I usually get a black background is with a bit of black card (or a bit of mdf painted with blackboard paint) set back from the subject then I take care to light the subject not the background.

Where I need a softer background to drape over something I use black bed sheets! Cheap and big. You could also try blackout material from a darkroom supplier.
