Any Hopper Bottom Pullers Here?

Road salt, malt barley, mill run pellets, canola, lentils.
Fertilizer use to be great, but since the oil patch collapse the rates have been driven down on the Canadian Prairies.

 

Well that depends on what area you run.
As posted frac sand pays well but is here now shut off in 2 minutes. This time of year every one is feeding critters so most feed ingredients are paying well. Roofing granules pay as good or better than anything when I can get em. Anything pet food really isn't worth my time

 

I run a hopper. Just put grain in mine, we farm as well so I don't need to ruin my trailer with other stuff thats too hard on them, I have a bucket if someone wants me to haul that stuff. I do need to start looking around for other things to load though. Not a huge amount of grain moving at the moment around here and some local trucking companies have grain rates beat down pretty good. Guess they don't call them poverty wagons for nothing.

 

When I pulled one the best loads I get were usually high dollar feed/feed ingredients, "organic" grains, road salt, the odd load of whey sugar or anything going to the east or west coasts.

We try to stay with ag products as aggregates are hard on hoppers and over time make them hard to unload things like DDG or meat and bone meal.

 

i do a bit of grain fertilizer salt.

 

Know anything about peanuts
