Have a 30 tonne Collinson feed bin. There’s a barley blend stuck up towards the top on one side? There’s no hatch at the top just a vent. Anyone experienced this? Tips to remove it? Thanks

Put someone up on the pallet forks with a big hammer. Get them to batter the side its stuck on.
Make sure nobody's watching.

Big bar in through the vent and start levering/poking it

Try getting up tomorrow, and hitting the outside. It’s a fair old height

Drainage rods carefully through from shoot. Do not put hands feet or any part of body near as can fall with some force.
Cherry picker, harness. Take the vent off the top, give it a poke.
30t bin is enough height to almost certainly kill you if you fall. No point risking it in my view.
I had to do some repairs to our bins. Hired in a cherry picker, got myself a harness and restraint lanyard, and got on with it. Picker was £250/wk. Got loads of stuff done while it was here.

Ffs don't follow the suggestions off these turnips,
Get a big kangol electric hammer drill chisel jobs,
G clamp a bit of good plate to the leg of bin, then using hammer action on kangol against the plate, the vibration will shift it, and no damage to bin after G clamp and plate removed,
Lot safer that he above for everyone,

Think this is a good idea! Is a road compressor and hand held pecker a bit severe?

It might be a bit ott, but depends how gentle you are, just short bursts maybe ok, but as I said clamp a plate the bin, a, to protect the leg from damage, and b, to spread the loadThink this is a good idea! Is a road compressor and hand held pecker a bit severe?
