spare hay & straw

hi, we move soon from vendee to normandy

but i had already bought in some hay & straw, i can't move it with me (got to buy more when i get 'up north' )
so i have tried to offer it for sale or swap on some other forums but they keep taking my advert off saying it is promoting a business?????

it is not its just my own bought for my neddies to munch this winter!

does anyone know anyone wanting good quality horse hay & nice clean edible straw & who can collect from vendee?......V.V SOON!

the bales are humongous i must say .....big oblong things.
500 kilo each for hay 70 euro a bale, i have 3-4 left
about 350 kilo each for straw 45 euro a bale, i have 6-7 left.

when my farmer delivers he uses a forklift thingy to move them, assuming the buyer does not have one (don't we all? ) then i guess you will have to either drag them up a ramp somehow, or break open the bale & fork it in something......or come armed with a million bin bags?

bye

Hi Salee

If you don't find someone here then have you tried leboncoin for your area ?

or find an ad for someone on AI looking for hay , even if it was yonks ago just reply eg " I may be able to help you email me " and others may also ask
you for hay .. just a thought

where exactly are you, if your close enough I will buy the lot as I have a couple of unexpected guests (horses)
Cheers

i am in vendee close to st hermine just off the A83.

Thanks for the quick response but unfortunately you are a very long way from me, so sorry not able to purchase but with hay prices and availability the way it is surely there will be someone closer who will bite your hand off.
lotsa luck
Bob

pity,
still i have tried several forums - most of which chuck my ad off!

so now i am thinking of sewing up those cheap blue tarps from the DIY shop with bale string to make humongous hay bags & shifting some each time we take stuff n junk to the new place.

bye
