I had an artic load of feed from Hull last week,haulier was telling me it was £11/t so 29t =£319

130 miles and just over 3hrs,only difference is he’d have a backload,whereas the milk tanker would be empty.

 

[ollie989898]

Would appear that they process their own milk so questionable whether that would appeal to buyers

Sell your milk as usual and rent the sheds out as industrial. £££s!!

What's an artic load of milk worth as a farm gate price?

10K and a £600 haul maybe not so daft then.

I’ve never heard of anyone getting rich off hauling milk.

No but I was more thinking if the farm had to pay a haulier it wouldn't be outright daft in cost relative to the value of the milk taken away. If they can fill an artic mind.

True,but the dairy will be filling an artic full from different farms using a smaller tanker,well they do local to me.
