IBC Adblue price inflation?

We have just been notified of a £30 increase in IBC prices for Adblue on Farm Marketplace. This is based on 3p per litre haulage surcharge. Covers oils and Adblue. That's more than 10% price inflation on this product. But not a permanent price increase.

What are people seeing elsewhere from other suppliers?

What's going on with ibcs?

Last ad blue delivery I returned a ibc. Got £100 back. 1 that replaced it had a £150/surcharge! I did contact rep i ordered it from but not heard back.

Ad blue was 35ppl.
I know, that's another annoying thing......We get charged a surcharge of £130 but we buy plenty of other IBC's and they are nowhere near that price.

Adblue @ 35ppl is a little expensive as well......perhaps consider shopping around.

Yeah I will next time. Once they've got you started and onto the ibc surcharge they kind of have you on the wheel.

Don't think he would take the p!ss I have made him take things away again before because there too expensive.

Its still £100 deposit on Farmdeals and Farm Marketplace. 30.5ppl on Farmdeals, 31.8ppl on Farm Marketplace. Buying group price is a bit lower as no transactions fees.

We have just received a further notification that there will be an additional increase of 5ppl on 8th November. That's from 27.5ppl to 35.5ppl in 6 weeks. And they say inflation for businesses is running at 11%.

Adblue hasn’t actually risen much in price in the last 4/5 years so it was inevitable it would rise at some point when you got such a low value item transport prices going up will make it seem a greater price increase than other products
