Been trying for two months to get delivery date & cost for 100T delivered & spread. Finally getting it Thursday at $40/T, four years ago it was $23/T...

I don't think that's due to the cost of the lime itself, but rather the fuel surcharge they are tacking on due to insane diesel prices.

We got 30 tons delivered and spread several weeks ago from the Perry County Co-op. It was $34/ton. He said he was fixing to go up to $39/ton due to the price of fuel
Wayne Co Co-op, it's everything crazy rolled into it. Put it off last year as was pushing several new plots that I wanted spread too. Is what it is & way cheaper than fertilizer!
BTW, the "story" the past month has been that quarry wasn't running lime as the demand for gravel was way high. Must be a lot of new gravel roads around
. I had a load of 57 delivered to my home shop last week & it was $575.00!

Lime was delivered from quarry yesterday. Driver left his scale ticket with first load. They charged CO-op $21/T for it. CO-op is charging $19/T for spreading. They'll have loader, spreader truck & couple guys working for two days. Given state of everything it could be worse.
Of course with 110T of lime staged & not being spread until Mon & Tues, forecast changed this morning to 80% chance of rain today. JCDeerman must have washed his truck....
