10-4. The per ton without bulk reduced rate cost was significantly cheaper than what you were quoted ($420/ton). I’m thinking a salesman misspoke on that. We will see

Lyssy and Eckel $422 / ton plus delivery. The cost of feed has only gone up $8 per ton since March of last year but freight has doubled.

😖

How many tons was that for? I know they increased the minimum to 12 tons to deliver

[TexasTK]

That's probably with freight added in. They brought 11.2 tons last time and with freight it was $465 / ton. Ours comes from Poth which is over 2 hours away.

I always order 12 tons but we almost never get it. Sometimes we only get 9 tons. The drivers guess how much is going in the truck and some of them are better at it than others.

Feeding the MG 16% on my Weimar place. It's gotten up to $11 a bag.

We aren’t running overhead bins. Bags. Way too rough for a heavy trailer to get to feeders and the cost to buy the bin and trailer isn’t worth it for what we do. So bags on pallets it is!

[Sika]

Gotcha…yeah we buy bags for our place in the hill country but 1 ton fills all the feeders there. We’re thinking of buying a hopper we can haul to town to fill up so we don’t have to mess with bags.
Anyhoo, LE is $506 for 1 ton bags plus delivery.
Last April it was $482. Not a huge difference.

I’m sure you know this. But Mason feed has a trailer you can borrow. I assume one of the llano places does. Won’t be worth it for 1 ton at a time I doubt.

It’s 14.25/ bagged @ Lyssey and eckel in Roosevelt if you buy a pallet with discount for over a ton, but also surcharge of $11/pallet unless you bring it back, not sure how big of difference bulk price is compared to bagged price

[DedDuk]

We just got 10 tons from L and E for 462 a ton plus delivery. Delivery from Poth to East Texas was 600.
