Lime: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $28.00 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $17.00 at volume, on a typical 14-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For lime, the drivers are capacity, material, outlet configuration, secondary containment, uv resistance, fitting size, level indication, nitrogen content — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Published US-facing pricing for ag lime is usually quoted by the ton, with bulk agricultural lime commonly landing around the mid-teens to low-40s USD per ton depending on source and quality; examples include $16.45/ton, $41.50/ton, and a common bulk range of $15-$50/ton. The biggest price movers are fineness/granulation, calcium vs dolomitic chemistry, purity/neutralizing value, and whether the material is bagged, palletized, or loose bulk; transport often dominates delivered cost, while true custom-printed packaging is not typical for lime and would be a specialty quote rather than standard bulk supply. Realistic supplier routes are local quarries, ag retailers/co-ops, and bulk material distributors; imported FOB offers exist, but landed cost can vary widely once freight and handling are included.
