Both Lowe's and Walmart did stock 20lb or 25lb bags. (Don't know if they still do).

I agree with Mikreb. A neighbor will gladly lift them out of your car and dump it into the reservoir. The Wildwood Ace will load the bags into your car.

If you have a company that services your water softener system they will be able to provide you with the service

Ask a neighbor. I’d gladly help mine if they asked.

Sparr is that huge building on route 44 with what looks like rain silos right opposite the new medical malls, you really can't miss it and it's easy to look up on Google, as for going there in your golf cart you'd have to go over one of the bridges and then drive on 44 which I don't think is doable nor safe, yes folks there are some places you need to drive your car

Personally, I would never rely on a neighbor to do any kind of laborious work. What if they throw their back out? I do not want to be responsible for anyone injuring themselves while doing a favor for me.

Glad I don't have to worry about hoisting salt into a softener system because I don't have one.

I know what you mean. I purchase 25 lb bags at Publix. Makes it a little easier. It is a little more costly.

The salts, I think are sodium chloride, common table salt and calcium chloride. We have used both to melt snow and ice. I seem to recall the calcium chloride in opened bags, did not form lumps as badly as the sodium chloride did.

H2O softener salt comes in sealed plastic bags....moisture can't get in.

So you're the one. Probably don't have a Costco card either.
