I have recently found these guys online and am keen to try them but wanted some experiences first.

I work full time so to be able to have everything delivered on a pallet would be fab.

To good to be true or worth it?
 
I've used them before and found them reliable and helpful. Our yard isn't easy to access being a couple of hundred yards down a narrow lane, but they park up the top of the lane and ferry the stuff down on a little fork lift.

Mostly I buy their haylage, but used their Condition Cubes on OH's hunter last winter and they kept the weight on him well and were much cheaper than similar branded cubes.
 
We have their big haylage bales, they deliver to us 8 bales at a time and have never had to throw anything away, all our horses love it, great service, most times we pay over the phone and they deliver the next day, the driver always puts our dogs away then let's them out afterwards, like I said great great service
 
Their haylage is usually nice, yes. I did have a problem last year that some of their haylage was very seedy which seemed to make OH's horse cough, so changed to another type and then he was fine.
 
I`ve used them a few times in the past.
They are a really friendly helpful company and forage has always been top notch!

Delivery always on time too which is a major plus
