King Conservation District has a Lime Spreader available to loan to landowners in KCD’s service area. The rental fees charged go towards offsetting the insurance and maintenance costs.
The RhinoLimer is ground driven and can be pulled behind a tractor, ATV, or truck when in the field. Capacity is approximately 300 pounds (6 50-pound bags) per load. This equipment is primarily used for drop-spreading lime products, however, use for fertilizer and seed are also allowed. The rental fees charged go towards offsetting the insurance and maintenance costs
Cooperators with a current KCD Farm Conservation Plan may not need a nutrient management consultation prior to use of the spreader, however a follow-up review of the Farm Conservation Plan may be conducted. Visit Farm Conservation Planning to learn more.
We strongly encourage landowners to have a recent soil test analysis available for review before renting the equipment. Visit our the Soil Testing Program page for more information.
The Rhino Limer is available for use by landowners in KCD’s service area, which includes 34 cities and all of unincorporated King County. The incorporated cities of Enumclaw, Federal Way, Skykomish, Milton, and Pacific are outside KCD’s boundaries, but landowners in those communities may rent the manure spreader on a case-by-case basis when available.
The RhinoLimer is available for use from April 1 to September 31 only. The form to submit requests to use the RhinoLimer will go live each year on January 1st.
Fees:
Rental – $80 per rental session
NOTE: Users who return the RhinoLimer Spreader late will be charged an additional rental fee!
Delivery -$2 per mile, not to exceed $100.
NOTE: Land managers are strongly encouraged to pick up and drop off the RhinoLimer Spreader at KCD’s office in Renton. The delivery option depends on staff availability.
Deposit – $40 (to be refunded if equipment upon inspection when returned is found to be in clean satisfactory condition).
