Anyone hear what is going on there? Looks like they are planning on shutting down in a couple weeks based on Facebook page. Has anyone heard differently or about an auction?

Is that the same elevator you posted about a few weeks ago?

Dave H (MI) · Feb 9, 2019

Yes. Sorry to see they scheduled the auction. I was hoping for a last minute reprieve. I'm gonna have to rethink what I am doing this year. I could haul further. Thing is, I just don't want to. Weather, break downs, predation...this might just be the last straw.

Dave I think you just got the should I or shouldn't I bin problem solved. You need a bin. It will save time in the harvest season with your elevator open on your time instead of when they want to be. You will need to check on the electric capacity you have where you put a bin set up. If you go to a dryer for your corn you will either need to be able to run it by PTO or have enough electrical capacity to run the motors.

You hit the nail on the head. I thought I had a good one located but the guy went completely off the radar on me. It was only a half hour away and had everything I needed. It will take me one year to get re-situated, that is if I can find the right bin. That will put me back in business, but for 2019 I am going to head in a different direction.
