I know I could not use such a spreader as I don't have the population to support that kind kind of volume (only about 7,000). The average size lot here is about 5,000 sq. ft. so I am only talking 4 to 6 yards per job. If I can set up 15-20 jobs for next spring, I should be able to market other services and products.

Mowing jobs here at this time is non-existant. Anyone with a mower is doing it for practically nothing. I am looking for services that other companies don't want to offer!
