I’m seeing a 10% increase from my bulk supplier.
also looking to make my first ever bulk purchase. what are vendor are you pricing from? If i may ask.Any of you guys taken your salt orders for the year? Who are you going through? We got one quote and seemed high. Looking at bring in 75 tons of salt.
Did you guys end up getting your Aldi's back?We buy in bulk throughout the winter. Normally stock up 25-30 ton in the fall then keep it stocked throughout the winter. We used to order bulk through kansas salt, but now we buy in bulk truck loads (our own dump truck) through RL Hannah.
Whats hannah charging you this year? I haven't call them yet down in hv. They had fines last year which clogged up real bad.We buy in bulk throughout the winter.

JMH no, they went to a property management company from Florida and we did not want to be involved in that fiasco.Did you guys end up getting your Aldi's back?
Haven't ran down there yet to get a load. Need to soon. Yes the salt last year was very powdery, but from what I understood everyone got that same kind of salt because the mines were only selling the real rock salt to cities and municipalities.Whats hannah charging you this year?

No, just pulled it out of storage to clean/ make sure everything works. Definitely not going to be that guyYour going to drive around with your plow mounted to your truck until spring ?
I saw "that guy" driving down i435 about a week ago. Had the plow and spreader on his truck. I thought, maybe he just bought them and was picking them up. It did make do a double take at the weather to make sure I hadn't missed something!No, just pulled it out of storage to clean/ make sure everything works. Definitely not going to be that guy![]()

Salt tonight, pre treat Wednesday morning, plow Wednesday evening, again Thursday morning, post treat. Sounds good:laugh:Down to 26 tonight after rain....possible black ice treatment??
I am..! Don't want it too but if it's gonna rain/ snow mix where I can't do anything else, it might as well snow!!Who is ready? I know I'm not ready for this crap!!
Computer harddrive shot craps and I was w/o a computer for a month because it was backordered. Out driving to all my accounts right now with a stack of contracts getting signatures. Sold my old truck and completely changed my whole process this year. Plowing with skidsteer and just bought a BOSS Quick Cube for salt. Been running around like a chicken with my head cut off for 2 months trying to get all my equipment lined up and organized. But other than that, I think I'm ready.Who is ready?
