I'm sorry. Don't the PA mushroom bedding materials trucks come down 
your way? They scavage EVERYTHING from here in the Eastern Panhandle 
of WV. Let me know if you need contact into. -Allan

>The owner of a large horse stable has large amounts of both
>partially-composted and un-composted horse manure/shavings which she
>would like removed.  The operation is located just west of Ashland,
>VA about 3-4 miles from Interstate 95 in Hanover County.  The
>existing manure+sawdust horse bedding pile is about 200 yards in
>length and ranges from 9-15 feet in depth.  Stockpiled bedded manure
>is upwards of 5 years old.  In addition, the operation generates 350
>cubic feet of manure/shavings daily.  No adequate equipment is
>available on site to load material into large trucks.  Only a small
>loader is available for loading pick-up trucks.  Owner does not have
>sufficient funds to pay for removal.  She is looking for assistance
>in removing the current pile and also establishing a method for daily
>waste removal.  If you know of composters who would either wish to
>compost on-site or remove the material to another site, please contact:
