I think it was around 1969. The cheese factory did not want cans any more. They worked out a plan where the local bank provided loans to buy a bulk cooler and build a proper milk house. The difference between can and bulk milk price was sent directly to the bank to pay off the loan. It made it easier to make the switch.
When did milk cans disappear from your area?
