Hmmm... a lot of good suggestions here. Sounds like the adjustable forks are most popular and would give me more flexibility. I also like the idea of having the backstop which the stationary ones usually don't have.
I don't think that inexpensive $100 carryall is heavy-duty enough, plus the forks probably not long enough.
Dan, if I purchase FEL forks, I'm afraid I won't be able to see well enough to maneuver the forks under the bins (hillsides, etc.). I don't need to lift very high. Besides, my B7800/402 loader would probably struggle picking up 1000 pounds that far out from the pivot point.
We put the bins out by the driveway and a boom truck picks them up daily during harvest season.
