Ruminating about this one.
Anyone considered or is running their own articulated lorry?
See, for some reason, hauliers think that the Sainted Isle is somewhere in mid Atlantic despite the fact that there is dual carriageway all the way to our farm barring the last 3-4 miles so they heap on the coals to bring in loads.
Going forward, we think straights are the better buy and blend ourselves plus we use a lot of straw - up to 4 loads a month as feeding heifers on straw plus bedding some sheds plus potentially hauling to a slurry nurse tank.
Be interested to hear from anyone doing this. Guess backloads (or out loads I suppose) are the key?
