Why covered sand storage

Wet sand freezes into lumps that clog spreaders mid-storm. Covered storage keeps winter sand dry and workable, reduces waste and makes winter operations more reliable.

Design approach

  • Ponywall or lock-block foundations for pile height and bucket impact
  • Openings sized for your loaders
  • Capacity matched to your route load
