Storing barley in a shipping container

[Highland Mule]

Bildabin, Collinson, Hanco do bins so long as you can fill them. They will be vermin proof and easy to empty.

Go on, the brief is fairly cheap and six tonne capacity. What’s a Bildabin going to cost, and how will it compare to an old grain trailer and tarp? Six tonne a year means ease of emptying doesn’t matter either - it’s only a couple of bags a day.

No idea on cost. My B&B cattle man uses a couple of smaller bildabins, so they can’t be too dear otherwise he would use one of his trailers for bagging off.

I'd stick it in bags as suggested. That would let the air circulate a bit as well

he has a rat problem. Rats like a pile of bags almost as much as they do an open heap of grain.

If the OP has more than a few years of tenure on the site then a small, secondhand bin would make life so much easier, as well as giving safety from vermin enough to satisfy FA (& common sense).

Alternatively bag it into a corner of a shed, accept the losses to vermin, take the risk from various diseases that may (or may not) occur as a result, and play with the air rifle thinking you are making a dent on the well fed rat population.
