TNT Hay is by far the most superior hay sales company I’ve bought hay from. I’ve got hay from them over the past 7... years and also know others who are loyal customers and have never had any complaints. Not only the best quality hay with many options, but the best quality service you will find that stands behind their product. The owner Steve works endlessly to meet everyone’s needs and exceeds all expectations and the drivers are always friendly and reliable. I’ve never had my horses turn up their noses and the hay is always smells great, is fresh and dust free! 100/10 recommend!read more

Our previous hay supplier dumped us because we didn't have room for a one-ton delivery in the Summer!In December we... needed to restock and I turned to TNT. There was snow. The thing is that the driveway is long, steep and surpentines.I tried to cancel on the delivery date, fearing that their truck would get in trouble on the driveway. Steve wouldn't hear of it. He sent a recovery truck along with the hay truck.I am jaw-dropping impressed. They made it up to the barn. I will gladly do business with them again. My boss has the final say so I hope she goes with TNT. Thanks, Steve.read more
