Mini Totes Store Liquid Fertilizer

“To fill the tanks on our corn planter or sprayer, we attach a 2-in. dia. hose to the discharge valve at the bottom of each tank and run the hose into the open bottom half of a 50-gal. plastic barrel. A 1/4 hp sump pump located inside the barrel is used to transfer liquids.”
The trailer measures 24 ft. long by 8 ft. wide and was originally designed to haul crawler tractors and other big, heavy earthmoving equipment in the construction industry. “The trailer is equipped with a massive frame and hitch built from 10-in. steel I-beams so it can handle much more weight than a conventional trailer,” says Miller.
“I paid $40 apiece for the poly totes. They’re contained inside metal cages and mounted on pallets for easy loading and unloading.”
