Co-op was quoting about 23 per ton this am depending on where you get it

Okay, that is how much lime costs, but how much would they charge to deliver it and dump it??

Booner, $23.00 a ton is typical for delivery.

Hook, I think Booner is asking what the price is without spreading it. Just dumping it on the property in a pile. I had this done last year for about $12/ton (spread it myself). It normally runs about 14-15$/ton, without spreading.

thanks guys

What about with spreading? I need to do this and don't have a lot of time with the schedule right now

The price of 25ish a ton will include delivery and spreading, if they can get to the feild with a truck

talk to a gut today who does the lime and his prices are 11 a ton plus 100 dollars a hour! wow!!!!! and he gets it from potsville.

 

[BoonerBucks]

geez, couldnt do that...I'd take scoops in my truck bed and haul it before i would pay that. He must be charging by the hours it takes to get to the property??

 

[jaypz4]

too much for me also!

I pk mine up one ton at a time on my home trailer and haul it to the fields since the co-op is only 5 miles from our club....I am thinking about getting them to drop 10 tons near strategic areas in order to cut down on the multiple trips....will see.
