What happens here

For smaller operations or those just starting with brine, purchasing large 5000-gallon tanks for additives may not be cost-effective. Instead, consider buying IBC (Intermediate Bulk Container) totes of additives from local suppliers. These totes can be easily loaded onto and off trucks using forklifts. Many suppliers also offer direct shipping of full totes of liquid additive across the country, providing a practical solution when large-scale storage isn't financially viable.

Goal: Provide practical additive sourcing solutions for varied operational scales

Tools and materials

  • Forklift — Loading and unloading IBC totes
  • IBC Tote — Storing and transporting smaller quantities of brine additive
  • Brine Additive — Enhancing brine performance

something like that so now Tim you had a question if cuz we're running a smaller operation if we want to use an additive what's our options is that what you were asking yeah sort of like a smaller scale company just using a 305 and uh you know just getting getting going on Brian getting their feet wet and yeah so so if if you're one of those companies that that is starting off in Brian you're using a Brian buddy like we did in the first video getting a 5,000-gallon tank for additive is probably not a practical solution because you're going to spend more money on the tank and filling the tank with additive than you're going to spend on your whole other brine operation just doesn't make Financial sense right so in that case uh there's a couple options first option is if you have a local supplier you buy an IB C tote that you can load in and out of your truck with your forks you go to a local supplier and they'll fill you up the other option is most of the suppliers will ship you totes full of liquid it's a more expensive way to buy you're going to pay some Freight you're going to pay some handling you're going to pay for that tote um but there are plenty of suppliers that will ship all across the country with full totes of liquid additive okay so before I
