Request a Farm-Input Delivery Review in Iowa, Nebraska & Kansas

Are you a trucker or hauler, not a farmer? Go to the trucker interest form →

If you have a rush order of seed, fertilizer, feed, or another farm supply and your usual co-op or truck cannot cover the run, this pilot gives you one place to submit the pickup, drop-off, distance, and timing details for coordination and scheduling review. It may reduce the time and coordination burden of calling around for a backup. We do not promise savings, coverage, speed, or driver availability. Submit a request and we'll follow up with pricing and availability for your route.

This is a pilot program for farmers in Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas. Enter your pickup and drop-off distance below to see the fixed delivery fee for the listed tier, then pay to submit your request. Payment places the request in the pilot's queue for priority scheduling review; it does not book an instant delivery or guarantee coverage, a driver, a delivery date, or a completed delivery.

Planned Pilot Pricing for Iowa, Nebraska & Kansas Deliveries

We charge a flat, simple delivery fee based on distance — no surprise per-mile math at checkout. Fees are based on roughly $14.50/mile with a $200 minimum, rounded up to the nearest fixed tier below:

🌱 Founding Customer Pricing: the first 5 real deliveries get 35% off while we prove out the service — the discount is applied automatically at checkout. After that, standard pricing above applies.

Deliveries beyond 62 miles need a custom quote — contact us directly. Final availability will still be confirmed with you directly before anything ships.

Why this runs higher than the ~$5/mile you're used to for outbound grain hauling: this is a one-off, one-way trip bringing purchased inputs to the farm, with no backhaul load on the return. A scheduled outbound grain route has a truck already running a set path with freight both ways — a single dedicated run without that built-in efficiency simply costs more per mile.

Loads are run by a small, personally-vetted network of local drivers we know by name — a real local guy you can talk to, not a random app match.

Fields marked (required) must be completed. Provide at least one contact method: email or phone.

Tell the driver who or what role to ask for when they arrive. Leave blank if you do not have a pickup contact.

Your best estimate of the driving distance from pickup to drop-off. This determines your flat delivery fee below.

Give us a date range, or just type "ASAP".

This is shared with the assigned driver so you can coordinate the handoff.

Please provide at least one — email or phone — so we can follow up.

Farmer Terms & Conditions

These terms describe the current paid delivery pilot when you request delivery through GrainKit. They are written to explain what the live request, assignment, status, confirmation, issue-review, and rating flows currently do.

These terms are an agreement between you and Linkedd LLC. GrainKit is a brand of Linkedd LLC, a Montana limited liability company (file no. C1631496), 226 S Cruise Ave, Helena, MT 59601. Contact: hello@grainkit.online.

Counsel review notice — paid delivery pilot

The delivery model and these terms should be reviewed by qualified counsel before the pilot is scaled. These terms are a plain-language description of the current workflow, not legal advice. They do not by themselves determine GrainKit’s or a driver’s regulatory status, and they do not replace any agreement, regulatory analysis, or qualified legal review required for a paid delivery service.

1. GrainKit’s role and the assigned driver

GrainKit currently runs a small, human-coordinated pilot. We receive your request and delivery fee, review the route and request details, coordinate a possible assignment, pass along practical coordination information, update the delivery status, and administer the current confirmation, issue-review, refund, and rating flows.

The driver assigned to a request is an independently operating driver or hauler who operates separately from GrainKit and coordinates pickup, transport, and drop-off with you. GrainKit’s assignment of a driver is a pilot coordination step; it is not a promise about the legal relationship between you, the driver, or GrainKit. These terms do not say that GrainKit, a driver, a vehicle, or an operation is licensed, insured, bonded, permitted, or legally or regulatory compliant. They do not decide whether anyone is a carrier, broker, contractor, employee, agent, or another legal category.

Calling this a pilot description does not mean the arrangement has no legal significance or sits outside transportation rules. Any separate agreement, regulatory analysis, authorization, insurance arrangement, or other review required for a paid delivery service must be handled separately.

2. What submitting a request means

Before checkout, you provide the item category and description, quantity, pickup and drop-off locations, estimated one-way distance, preferred delivery window, your name, and at least one contact method. You also confirm that the items have already been purchased and are ready for pickup, read and accepted these terms, and that the request is satisfactory at purchase.

Submitting the form saves a request and sends you to Stripe to pay the delivery fee shown for the distance tier. That fee is for delivery only; GrainKit does not sell the seed, fertilizer, feed, or other supplies through this request. Payment places the request in the pilot’s scheduling-review queue. It does not book an instant delivery, guarantee that a driver will be available, or guarantee a delivery date.

The current tiers are: up to 14 miles — $200; 15–20 miles — $300; 21–27 miles — $400; 28–34 miles — $500; 35–41 miles — $600; 42–48 miles — $700; 49–55 miles — $800; and 56–62 miles — $900. The tiers are based on roughly $14.50 per mile with a $200 minimum and round up to keep checkout simple. Requests beyond 62 miles need a custom quote. The current FOUNDINGFARM promotion, if shown and applied at checkout, is temporary and is not part of the standard pricing terms.

3. Before assignment, assignment, and communications

Not yet assigned: A request can show as Requested while GrainKit reviews it and works on availability. At this stage no driver has been lined up, and your payment is not evidence that a driver accepted the load. We generally follow up directly, usually within 1–2 business days, but timing and availability are not guaranteed. Your private status link can show whether the request is requested, assigned, in progress, delivered, or canceled.

Assigned: Assignment means GrainKit has lined up a driver for the request and moved it to the assigned stage. In the current workflow, assignment is tied to a driver who accepted the Trucker Terms & Conditions and whose required documents were reviewed by a person and marked “Verified.” That label is an internal workflow status, not a promise that a document is legally valid or that the driver, vehicle, or operation satisfies every requirement.

When an assignment is made, GrainKit may send you the driver’s name, phone or email, vehicle type, route details, quoted fee, and timing information. The assigned driver may receive your name, phone or email, pickup and drop-off information, load and timing details, pickup instructions, and a private driver-view link. This is the practical information needed to coordinate a handoff, not an invitation to use the information for another purpose.

The current pilot does not provide in-app chat or an SMS system. GrainKit coordinates through the contact details you provide, direct follow-up, and operational email when an email address is available. If timing or load details change, reply to a GrainKit email or contact GrainKit at hello@grainkit.online. The farmer status page shows status only and does not show driver contact or vehicle details.

4. Operational information and driver documents

GrainKit uses your request information to review and coordinate the load. The current flow may share the farmer’s name and contact method, pickup and drop-off locations, pickup contact or role, item and quantity details, preferred window, distance tier, and relevant status or confirmation information with the assigned driver and the people coordinating the pilot.

Drivers submit a driver’s license, current proof of insurance, and vehicle registration through the separate driver-interest flow. Those files and limited file details such as filename and content type are kept in private file storage for the founder’s human review before assignment. They are not displayed in the public farmer or driver views. The current review is not automated OCR, a background check, an insurance-company lookup, or an automated legal-validity or compliance determination. See the Privacy Policy for the broader description of access, use, retention, and deletion requests.

5. Driver cancellation and delivery completion

If a driver accepts a request and then cancels, the current workflow is to notify you and refund the paid delivery fee in full, subject to the payment platform completing the refund. A payment made for a request is not a promise that delivery will occur.

GrainKit’s current internal workflow moves a delivery through Assigned, In progress, and Delivered. When the delivery is marked delivered, the farmer receives or can use the delivery-status link and is asked to complete the existing delivery confirmation step.

Two confirmations are part of the current flow:

  • At purchase: before payment, you check that the delivery request is satisfactory at purchase. This confirms the request and fee details you are submitting; it does not confirm that a future delivery has already happened.
  • At delivery: after the delivery is marked complete, you either confirm that the goods arrived as expected or report an issue. If you see damage, a shortage, a wrong item, or another problem, do not confirm the delivery as satisfactory; describe the issue in the delivery confirmation step instead.

When you have confirmed the request satisfactory at purchase and the delivery satisfactory at delivery, the current workflow sets the farmer-side no-refund lock and treats the order as final. This does not remove a refund that GrainKit is separately required or chooses to process, such as the current full-refund path for a driver cancellation.

6. Delivery issues, the 48-hour window, and private review

You may initiate a delivery issue through the farmer delivery-confirmation flow if the delivery was marked complete but something is wrong. The issue must be filed within 48 hours after the delivery is marked delivered and before you confirm the delivery satisfactory, whichever happens first. Your satisfactory confirmation closes the issue window immediately. If the 48-hour window expires first, the current issue-reporting flow closes.

A farmer-initiated issue is reviewed privately by GrainKit Support/Review. While an issue is open, the driver payout and the farmer-side payment finalization remain on a mutual funds hold. Ratings are paused and cannot be used to settle or replace the issue.

After private review, possible outcomes under the current internal flow include releasing the driver payout (which still requires the existing manual payout step), refunding the farmer through the payment platform while keeping the driver payout held, or recording a partial resolution with no automatic money movement. The outcome depends on the review; these terms do not promise a particular result. Driver payouts are currently manual record-keeping, such as a Zelle or Venmo payment, rather than an automated payment from this site.

7. Cargo damage, loss, and grain spoilage

Once a driver accepts the request, the driver is responsible for the load until it is delivered. GrainKit is not responsible for damage or loss that happens while goods are in the driver’s care. Do not confirm the delivery satisfactory if you see damage or another delivery problem; report it while the issue window is open.

Grain spoilage exclusion: GrainKit and the driver are not responsible for spoilage or quality loss caused by the natural condition of the grain, weather, temperature changes, moisture, or other factors outside direct physical damage during transport. Farmers are responsible for the condition of the grain when it is loaded. Spoilage caused by the grain’s own state or external conditions is excluded from claims.

8. Public ratings

After the delivery confirmation and the issue-review window close, the farmer and the assigned driver may each submit one 1–5 star rating and an optional short public comment about the other party. A submitted rating cannot be edited in the current flow. Ratings and comments may appear in public reputation summaries.

Ratings are unavailable while an issue is open and do not replace, resolve, or affect the private dispute review. GrainKit may hide a rating or comment that is abusive or inappropriate. A hidden rating remains in the internal record but does not appear publicly or affect the public average.

Terms, legal status, and updates: By checking the agreement box and submitting a delivery request, you agree to these Farmer Terms & Conditions as they apply to the current pilot workflow. These terms are not intended to be the only agreement governing a paid delivery service. They describe what GrainKit currently does; they do not by themselves determine GrainKit’s or a driver’s regulatory status and do not replace any agreement, regulatory analysis, or qualified legal review required for a paid delivery service. GrainKit may update these terms as the pilot changes. Continued use after an update means you accept the revised terms.

Counsel-review placeholder — governing law and dispute resolution

GrainKit has not specified governing law, venue, arbitration, mediation, or another dispute-resolution process for this pilot. No such term should be inferred from this page. Qualified counsel should review whether any such provision is needed and, if appropriate, add it in a later version.

Farm Delivery Service — Frequently Asked Questions

What does GrainKit's farm delivery service cost?

Pilot pricing is a flat, tiered fee based on the one-way trip distance: roughly $14.50/mile with a $200 minimum, rounded up to the nearest tier — for example, up to 14 miles is $200, 15–20 miles is $300, and so on up through 62 miles (see the pricing table above). Runs beyond 62 miles need a custom quote. This covers the delivery fee only — the cost of the seed, fertilizer, feed, or supplies themselves is paid separately to your dealer or co-op as usual.

What's the coverage area — do you deliver near me?

The pilot is currently focused on Iowa, Nebraska, and Kansas. If you farm in one of those states, submit a request with your pickup and drop-off locations and we'll follow up on availability for your specific route. If you're outside that core area, you can still register your interest using the form above — it helps us gauge demand for expanding coverage.

How does the delivery process actually work?

You submit a request with what you need, your pickup and drop-off locations, your estimated distance, and your preferred delivery window, then pay the flat fee shown for your distance tier. That payment doesn't book an instant, automatic delivery — it puts your request into our pilot queue with priority scheduling review, and we follow up directly (usually within 1-2 business days) to confirm driver availability and finalize the details with you before anything ships. This is an early pilot, not a fully automated on-demand service yet.

What items can I have delivered?

Seed, dry fertilizer, animal feed, and general farm supplies. Use the "What do you need?" field on the request form to describe the specific product, brand, and quantity — the more detail you give us, the easier it is for us to line up the right pickup and hauler for your load.
