Get boxes from your county extension office and mail to Auburn Do not do this. Their tests are $12 and they give very basic incomplete information. As mentioned above, Waypoint or Watters Ag in Camilla , Ga. For $2-3 dollars more you'll get a much better test.

I use Water's Agricultural Labratories out of Owensboro, KY. My friend has a soil sampling company and that is who he uses, so I dont know if prices are the same for a few samples. They send out a nice report though. This. They also have a location in Ga. Good folks

To add onto the topic, get a complete test to include micros and organic matter. You’ll spend about $5 more than what you spend at AU but have more information. They report your actual CEC and % Base Saturation. pH plus P and K doesn’t do enough which is what you get from Auburn and WI.
As a quick why do I need this, your soil can only hold roughly 10X CEC in nitrogen. So if you have a sandy soil with a CEC of 4, your soil can hold 40 lbs of N. So if you put down 300 lbs 17-17-17 at planting you’ve applied 51 lbs of N. That doesn’t include any carry over N from previous legume crops etc.

Waters will send you bags free of charge. But, I’ve sent samples in ziplocks too

Complete test without organic material was $15 last year compared to $12 at Auburn. For that extra $3 you get actual CEC, % Base Saturation and micros. All very important.
Waters does give crop specific recommendations on their report.
