Did you transport the Co-op spreader full? That is what I was hoping to build.
Unfortunately our local Farmer's Coop shut down a couple of years ago, although many of the assets may have been transferred to a local retailer.
The spreaders my parents had rented in the past were sized so that one could back up to a trailer or pickup, and unload onto the spreader. They had an expanded steel mesh screen over the top of the bin, and a big spike on the top to tear the bags. Toss a bag onto the spike, then dump. Real easy to refill.
