Today I need to figure out the best way to dump the IBC totes into the dump trailer. I keep all of my undesirable wood such as chunks, cookies, crotch pieces and shorts in these totes to sell as boiler wood, or bonfire wood. Today I'm selling several of these totes and have an order to deliver 4 of them. The customer has no way of unloading the totes so I need to empty them into the trailer. Come along as I learn through trial and error of how to accomplish this!

When you pushed the pile forward it looked like the truck came up against the parking prawl in the transmission. That will be an expensive fix if it breaks. Set the parking brake and put the transmission in neutral to avoid force against the prawl. Chocking the front of the trailer tires would help also.

I saw one youtube video of a commercial firewood operation that had a 180 degree rotation mechanism on their forklift . It made for quick and easy emptying of their IBC totes.

Sit tote down back forks out, pickup on lower metal frame, lift and drive forward to keep forks in position, the tote will tip over not breaking the pallet.

If you handled these totes a lot I would consider a roll head fork attachment. We had them on our forklifts for dumping grass seed boxes and they worked well. Im sure someone makes them for skid steers.

Make removable sides for the totes with the section you cut out and the two top bars. I use electrical tape, and fasten with zip ties. Para cord, wire, or chains would work too.

That's a hell of a deal Brad. Those IBC totes sell for $150-$200 here in Maine (empty!), nobody gives them away anymore since they're in such demand

try putting a chain around the bottom middle post on each side of the IBC tote and the other side to the back where the forks connect. Lift it high and tilt it forward. The IBC tote should slide off and once the chain comes tight as its falling off will flip it upside down. Then just lift up to empty it.

Just set the totes in the trailer,back up and get your forks under the pallet and roll it. Utube channel Dude Ranch DIY has some good videos on how to dump totes. Think they would help you out.
