I hope you are drinking distilled water and wear a respirator 24/7 too. Can't be too safe! Sorry, but every creature on the planet is a GMO. I think hauling 100 bu of corn on the road is riskier. And I apologize for picking on you, but I did try to say it nicely!

I would suspect the only gravity box available is an old one? Forty miles is not out of the question IF you check the box mounting to make sure it is on there good, check the bearings to make sure they are OK and have good tires...preferably road tires. You won't go fast but you will be home in 2 hours, God willing and the crick don't rise! The box will fight you and every crack in the pavement is a jolt to the driver. You could mount a box on a trailer. If you have a good double axle trailer rated for that kind of weight then I would probably roll a wagon onto the trailer and take it there and have them fill it. If it has an extendable tongue you can pull it off at home with a tractor. If not you can roll it off if you have a winch to keep some back tension and not let it free roll. I have done it both ways with EMPTY boxes. Another 5000 lbs added into the equation would just make it more interesting. Also possible you could auger the load out of the wagon while still on the trailer? Just some thoughts from a guy who does crazy stuff all the time.
