They Rebuild Manure Tanks
Duane Martin, Rochester, Ind.: "Here are before and after photos of a 1,500-gal. VanDale tank wagon that imploded as it was being emptied. We replaced the tank for about half of what it would have cost had parts and labor been done at the factory.
"That's our business, rebuilding virtually any brand tank, vacuum or topfill. We manufacture replacement tanks for Clay, VanDale, Badger, Better-Bilt, Calumet and Harvestore wagons, to name a few, out of 1/4-in. thick steel, which is 1/8 in. thicker than the original tanks many wagons are equipped with. We start with 800 gal. tanks for $2,300 and build up to 6,000 gal. Prices include remounting good original parts; any valves, fittings and/or plumbing is extra. Replacing tanks typically takes two to three weeks.
"We also manufacture replacement components such as moisture traps. We also stock a large number of replacement parts and manufacture tanks only."
