When I worked feed stores, we used to require a minimum of 10 tons to have truck come and spread it. The cost ranged from $20-30 per ton (this was about fifteen years back). I priced some lime from the same company but a different county this year. She told me there was a minimum of 24 tons to spread at a cost of $58 per ton... With our land rent prices here, its cheaper to rent more land than to spread lime.
