That's a toughie. No need to explain reasoning as some of us like horse trading under the table and some of us like doing it all back and forth going rate to keep the tax man happy and avoid feuding with neighbours over money. If it was me and that was the agreement I'd bring my equipment fueled completely full maybe offer to let him check if he likes,he'll probably laugh and say he trusts you but at least put it out there. Assuming you already established spreading rates figure out how much time is reasonable to make the trip each way per load and what your tractor and you are worth per hour. Now the spreader. Around here that spreader would fetch $350/day (Canada) provided it worked all day and you didn't have to fight with it to work. If it's just the hauling part than your using it as a wagon at that time. If a guy rented a silage bale wagon that rate would be comparable. Let's say it's $100/day to rent a big steel tandem wagon,divide that by 24 to get an hour (I know it's not going to go 24 hr straight but rental stores don't care). Than multiply that amount by the actual hauling time and maybe maybe not the coming back empty time. For an accurate skid steer price maybe ask a rental store what they'd charge /day to rent a similarly hp one and do the math per hour use on that too?

I worked as a machinist and engine erector, with time spent overseas. I have always had a love for machinery, and an appreciation for farming and farm machinery. I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. Not a place one would associate with farms or farm machinery. I credit my parents for instilling a lot of good values, a respect for learning, a knowledge of various skills and a little knowledge of farming in me, amo
