Yellow pages.

They are out there and most might be cheaper in price for equivilent products.

Godfather is right. Lesco tends to be a little high. I primarily use them when something unusual arises. specialty chemicals can usually be found there. They have a very conveniant location here for me. If you have a contact there dont lose it though. They have the best staff in the industry i think. You may need them someday. One guy in aprticular at my location is just unbelievable. I cant even describe him. Why hes working for lesco and not running his own consulting firm is beyond me. Anyhow , i use a farm supply outfit here alot for ferts and broadleaf round up and alot of other things. I find they cut lesco in half sometimes.
there in ky maybe you have something of this caliber also. The corp name here at mine is LANDMARK. they dont have everything but they stock the basics.

I have had a long running battle with Lesco over prices. Finally I realized they are like 7-11 right on the conner in every town. Since they have bigger overhead because of all the stores you can not ask them to price compete with Sams Club. Use Lesco for the little stuff you need in a hurry and buy everything else from Sams Club. Ok your question is who is Sams Club.

UHS-- United Horticulture Supply

Helena Chemical

Agro

ADM-- Archer Daniels Middleton

And as Godfather has said the yellow pages for local small fert companies in your area. We have a ton of them here in Florida. Check out farmer co-ops As a businessman it is your job to buy the best product for the lowest price.

What ever you do dont ever buy a spray tank from northern.
I bought a 300 gallon tank from them and it absolutely sucks.

Been here done that and you are 100% right about Northern Tanks etc. Painted frames rusts away and power hose reel is bended so gears grind away. Cheap price for cheap stuff. Northern does have some good stuff but PCO units are not any good.

I don't know if you have Wilber-Ellis, but they are good for chemicals. Some have equipment too.

Try ProSourceOne. You will save about $3.00 a bag for the same product
