Not an Elmore Co. guy but I use the Elmore County Coop for property in that area. A man and his dad does it. Dad is about 85 years old but still driving that truck. They do a good job at a good price...for our area. Property the other direction I use the buggy from the Dallas Co. Coop and do it myself. one off 231 in wetumpka right.

I rented the buggy from Talecon a few weeks ago. It's not that far from most places in Elmore County. What's the cost of a buggy full of lime and use of the buggy? I'm pretty sure Talecon is the closest to us in Russell County too.

I rented one from them as well. I think the buggy rental was $50 and the lime like $22 per ton or right around that. Better bring a real truck to pull it if your filler up.

Not sure of the road # it's off of. It's on Queen Ann Rd. Receipt doesn't have the phone number on it. On 3-17-16 I had 12.38 tons spread by them at $40/ton. The guys saying $22/ton please check to see if that is correct. I spread lime about every year and haven't seen any that low $ in central Alabama. North Alabama seems a lot cheaper than here but freight eats us up. I too pay $50 for buggy rental on places I do myself.

It was back in the spring.....I don't recall exactly. Even with the buggy spreading myself I THOUGHT I paid around $40/ton. I didn't do any myself this year and going off my memory which isn't worth a s@#!. I thought I remember thinking I'm paying the same thing but letting them do the work. I'll see if I can find a receipt with the buggy. It should be right with the receipt for the new rear window in my truck after a rock came off my tire, hit the buggy and bounced forward THROUGH the window!

If you paid the exact same amount to spread it yourself as you paid to have it spread, the people that did the spreading are not very good businessmen. I'm not saying you're wrong because I don't know what you paid. This just doesn't seem very logical unless there was a huge drop in the cost of lime from one year to the next.

Dayum, ya'll got me questioning myself. I have the receipt for the spread at $40/ton. I think the spreader truck guys actually work for the co-op. That is who I make the check out to. Now the spread yourself?? I'll get that price.

You want to call 567-4322...Kirt Wilson is his name...he is the son of the older guy. They both spread for Elmore County co-op. They have been spreading for a long time and will do it right. The Elmore store does not have a buggy to spread lime with so having them do it will be your best bet.
