Additional Information: Hi,
I need to haul hay from Ohio to SE Florida. We can buy to fill the semi,so whatever size is available should be ok so long as the truck is not less than 50ft. Maybe a trucker has an empty trailer or someone who would be willing to do a partial trade for our vacation home down i SE Fl for a winter retreat? Thanks,
Lance & Kendra

Questions for this shipment: 

Question: I sell and ship hay from OH to FL. I currently have 4 customers in FL. If you are interested in getting some hay from me and having it delivered, let me know. (10/25/2008)
Response: Hi Sir, Yes we are interested. We are in SE Florida just off of the turnpike in Boynton Beach. We do need some 2nd-4th cut hay for our rescue horses. I don't like to sound like I am whinining so I am just going to say that the need is here now. I can find the hay, but the reliable transport has not materialized yet. If you can do both and include us on your route, and we can rely on the quality and pricing, we can commit to your services ongoing. We have 10 head and they all need good hay as they are coming from places where they were all but left to fend for themselves.(I am sure that you have heard similar stories. Thanks for any help, Kendra Seiler (10/26/2008)
Response: I know there are a lot of horses that are suffering out there these days. I only deliver high quality hay, but as you probably know to buy good hay and have it shipped 1100 miles doesn't help keep the prices down. I usually deliver it in your area for about $10/bale. If you are interested let me know. Thanks, Sean Smith (10/28/2008)
Question: what r u looking to pay..I have a 53 ft enclosed trailer and may be able to help (10/26/2008)
Response: Hi Bobby, Thanks for your reply. We need hay brought down something awful and the prices down here are out of control. We have 10 head, mostly rescues and rehab horses. We need to get hay down here. Does the trailer need to be maxed out to make sense, or does after a certain weight, it just cost more in gas to haul? I am asking b/c if there is a less expensive way to do it, we are open. Also, if you wanted a quiet and serene, yet close to the beach place to stay while you are here, we have another home that has an apartment that you could stay at for several days.(I am from OH and know what it gets like) Thanks for any help, Kendra Seiler (10/26/2008)
Question: Hi Kendra, is this shipment still needed? Thanks, Shelley (10/27/2008)
Question: hi kendra, we are heading south and we might be empty. if you could have someone load and unload , i can get 200 to 225 in my horse trailer. and i would do it for the fuel price of my trip down. i know its not a full load, but it might help you out for a bit. we are leaving on thursday the 30th of october. let me know, cuz i'd like to help the rescues. i have freightliner sport chasiss and i think it will be about 500 in fuel. (10/27/2008)
Response: I think that this would work for us. Let me get back with you later today(likely in the afternoon). Thanks for your alternate solution.I appreciate the creative thinking! Everything seems so high price wise these days. It is pushing us little farms out of business. Kendra (10/28/2008)
Question: I have a 40' gooseneck and I am looking for a longer contract. Possibly delivering a load to that area every 2-3 weeks. If you are intersted I could do for 1.65 a mile. (10/29/2008)
