DumPit
The drive-over Lowry DumPit was designed with the goal of increasing the speed, safety, and ease of harvesting. DumPits can be set up to move all the grain from the pit into a holding bin, and then automatically end that operation. Because all of the corn or other grain is moved into a bin (such as a bin that feeds into a dryer), the pit will empty within a matter of minutes and be ready for the next full truckload, which means that you can reduce both the labor and equipment required for that aspect of harvest. DumPits, for example, allow a farmer to drive a fully loaded 1,000 bushel semi-trailer over a double-500 bushel pit configuration, and in a matter of a few minutes unload the entire contents of the truck and return to the field. Lowry DumPits are treated with a waterproof coating and come with a rubber rain mat to prevent moisture in the pit. There are several sizes and options for DumPits to accommodate your operation. See below for sizes, configurations and features.
