You can store either Hi moisture corn or dried in a Harvestore. If you are putting dry corn in, be sure to have it cooled down far enough as most Harveststores did not have any air (fan to blow cool air up thru the corn) on them.
Typically, the corn was put in with a blower but only if it was going to be fed to livestock since this method of filling cracks the kernels.
If you want to sell the corn for #2 yellow, you should use an auger etc. to fill the unit. This will reduce the cracking and the subsequent dock.
Do not fill above the bags in a Harveststore. When you unload, the corn will pull the bags down out of the roof and you will be whittling chunks it out of the unload auger with your pocket knife.
Typically there is an unloading auger in the bottom of a Harveststore if it is set up for corn.
I have never seen a Goliath unloader (silage) used for shelled corn so I do not know if it would work.
