Field Bin or Mother Bin? The Walkabout Mother Bin Is the Original
Whether you call it a field bin or a mother bin, the purpose is the same — to keep your harvest running smoothly. Across North America and Australia, these massive mobile grain storage systems have become essential for efficient harvesting. The only difference between the two terms — field bin or mother bin – is geography.
At the end of the day, it isn’t about which term you use; what really matters is the performance. And when it comes to performance, the Walkabout® Mother Bin is the original and the best.
The Original Mother Bin — Built for Harvest Efficiency
Walkabout® Mother Bins didn’t just enter the market — they created it and paved the way for others. As the first manufacturer to engineer a true mother bin in North America, Walkabout set the standard for what a field bin in Canada should be: large-capacity, mobile, and built to withstand the toughest harvest conditions.
With over 4,000 bushels or 6,000 bushels of capacity and unload speeds of up to 900 bushels per minute, the Walkabout® MOTHER BIN acts as a mobile buffer between your combines and trucks. It keeps the harvest moving — no waiting, no bottlenecks, no wasted time.
Farmers across Canada are discovering the benefits of using a Walkabout® MOTHER BIN in their operations. Designed and field-tested in America, these bins are now available and shipping across Canada, providing a dependable, long-term harvest solution that improves productivity every season.
Field Bin or Mother Bin — It’s All Walkabout®
Whether you’re farming in Saskatchewan, Alberta, or Manitoba, you might call it a field bin. In the U.S. and Australia, it’s known as a mother bin. But the function is the same — a high-capacity, mobile grain bin that keeps combines running and trucks hauling.
No matter what term you use, there’s only one original. The Walkabout® MOTHER BIN — the field bin Canada trusts for durability, performance, and harvest efficiency.
