    Ok so 1250 bushel ÷ 1.244 cubic feet = 1004.823 cu feet volume. 1004.823 cu feet × 30 pounds per cu foot = 30,144.69lbs or 15.072 ton?

    Feel free to correct me please.

    Bad thing is if I am right it has cost me a hour of my life to figure out that Its way to cheap of a rate and I would need to triple volume to be profitable. So even with a high sided trailer it don't pay enough for me. Im no math scholar either.

    Using Ur Trailer Length as 40', 6.5 Height and 7' for Inside Width equals 1820 Cubic Feet

    Using the Range of 28 to 32lbs per Cubic Foot that comes out to 50,960 to 58240

    Be careful! Don't say stuff like that aloud. You're going to attract the attention of Braindeads, "He said he's allergic to math! Is he one of us? No...he's still showing signs of brain activity. We're going to have to get in close and buddy up so that we will be close by and kill the brain when we gain his trust. Sounds like a plan!"
