So we have horses and prefer small squares.
We have a supplier that is willing to store the bales and deliver them periodically. However he (rightfully) wants to charge us a premium for that vs delivering them all at once and getting paid all at once.
I am trying to convince SWMBO we can store them in her in door riding arena. She of course does not want to give up the space in the riding arena.
1500 bales is what we are going to order.
So what kind of space is that going to take? One end of the arena there is a door in the middle. On either side it is 23 feet from the door to the wall. If I go 10 feet out how may bales can be stored in that area? Rafters are 16 feet high but it seems to me I do not want to go that high, stack would risk tipping over if I go more than 10 feet high or so wouldnt it?
I am trying to figure how much of her arena space I am "stealing" to save the fees the seller wants to charge for storage.
Is there kind of a formula to use?
