Val-Co Feed Bins / Fill Systems

Feed needs to be stored in a place that's protected from the elements, right? Well, our bins offer you the most efficient way to manage your feed and we've got them in various sizes to best suit your needs. Feed needs a way to get to the feeders, right? Well, you're in luck because we have fill systems that will make sure your birds have plenty of fresh food when it's needed. VAL-CO Feed Bins and Fill Systems are the perfect complement for your VAL-CO Feeders.

Feed Bins

VAL-CO Bulk Storage Bins are the ideal structure to protect feed from weather. The weather tight die formed roof has reinforcing ribs at the seams for added strength and ease of assembly. The 22” diameter, warp resistant top lid closes tight to keep out moisture. Bin bolts have a built-in weather seal and a drip edge keeps water away from the taper hopper and unloading boot. And with a 60° taper hopper on the 6 and 9 FT bins and 67° on the 7 FT bin, our bins really perform. The tapers are offset to allow smooth feed flow and the top lid operates smoothly with either the chain or the pinch-lock opener.

If strength and durability are important to you (as they should be), VAL-CO bins are tough! Bin sheets are made of heavy gauge G-90 galvanized steel with 2-2/3” wide by 1/2” deep corrugation. Legs are die formed with a sturdy bracing system for structural support. High strength bolts are used throughout VAL-CO bins. It just doesn't get any better.

Boot collar is included with all 16” opening bins listed above. 6 and 9 FT diameter bins are also available in 25” opening which requires an optional boot adapter. Ladders and other accessories are optional and should be ordered separately. NOTICE: All feed bins are designed for the storage of free-flowing material only. Soybean meal, meat scraps, and certain other materials are not considered to be free-flowing and should not be stored in these bins.
