Guess I may as well join the camp to move it whole. I've never moved one, but it seems simple enough. Taking it apart seems like a lot of work. Could you get a boom truck to come in, lift it out, then have the truck haul it to your place, and then erect it there. Don't think I would even worry about reducing the size. A lot of the bins I have seen were bolted to a slab, so in theory you could have a slab ready, unbolt from the old location, move it, then put it up in one shot. I know the truck will cost a bit, but as Paul pointed out, you will probably need new bolts and they will cost you too. Sometimes there is no cheap way to do these things. That's why old tanks are cheap. That's my take anyway. Good luck. Rod
