Using 275 totes for a mixing station
So I would like to use two of the 275 (or 330 if it fits) gallon IBC totes for my new mixing station. They are stack-able which is nice but the only drawback I can see is I cant figure out a way to get salt in the bottom container for making new water.
Does anyone have this setup? How do you add salt to it? |

I use a 275 and a 250, but i dont have them stacked.
You could do as mcgyvr said and climb up every time. Or you could cut a hole in the side very near the top. Leave enough plastic so you can use it to make a "chute" to feed the salt. You'll also want a way to get to your mixing pump and heater. |

I have to use a step stool on my storage tanks.
