| I would consider that to be a liability to the property, not an asset. Property would literally be worth more to me with the bins gone. Then I wouldn’t have to tear them out.
6” auger probably takes 45 min to an hour to load one truck. If I can’t load a truck in under 10 minutes I’m not interested.
If you’re willing to sit there multitasking (maybe bring a laptop and do office work that you needed to do anyway), maybe that changes the story but wasting 30+ minutes of my life per semi load of grain is not a good way to do business anymore.
It also traps you into having to be the guy hauling the grain. You can’t take advantage of cheap off-season hired freight if they have to sit there waiting 45 minutes or more to get loaded. They will either charge you a bunch more or require you to load a graincart before you show up so they can have a quick turn. So if you don’t want to bring your cart over, then you need to be the one to haul it.

How much value does grain storage add to the value of the land it sits on?
