I'm doing a research project at the RAU, in Cirencester and need 1 tonne of brewers grain a week till December. I can collect every week in a tote bin, we don't have the storage for a full lorry load.

Anyone got any bright ideas on how I can wrangle this?

Find a micro brewery? They will be glad to get rid of small amounts. we collect from one locally as it would cost too much for him to dispose of.
Find a corporate sponsor to cover your haulage?

A local brewery needing to address their CSR?

Called around the micro brewers, unfortunately none producing more than a 100 kilos a week and all already tied up with local farmers.

Was hoping someone local has a clamp to rent that I can fill with a bulk or order someone local doesn't mind selling me a tonne at a time.
