whats the story with the spuds in the last photo of the deutz and trailer, there,s boxes on the bottom but loose spuds on top so how do they get the loose ones off the trailer ?
Aren’t the spuds just heaped in the boxes?

They’ll be taken off with a forklift at the yard and placed in a box tipper which tips them out gradually into the grader.

Boxes should reduce the handling/damage compared to just harvesting them into tipper trailers.

I’m getting the smell and draw of the potato business again just looking at those pics, it’s an addiction....

Edit, just saw the trailer you’re referring to, I have no idea!!!
