What We Love About Louisville, KY
Louisville KY is a huge thoroughfare for goods crossing the country via Rail, Road & Barge. The city is known for bourbon, agriculture, Colonel Sanders, World Class Horse Racing, and rolling hills of lush bluegrass. Nestled along the Ohio River, this city played a major part in the history of the US.
Home to the world-renowned Kentucky Derby, this is horse country. Used containers from Eveon are a great addition to any farm or stable in the area. Wind & Watertight, a 20ft or 40ft is great for tack rooms, to store hay, for extra storage for farm equipment, to house agriculture for shipping and to build a small barn in the pasture. The average horse eats 75 bales of hay a year, and each shipping container holds between 45-47 at a time. So, it makes for a good cost-effective storage solution for this area and climate.
For feed storage, airtight or rodent-proof containers help keep grains and hay fresh while preventing rats and other pests from contaminating or consuming the feed. These containers can be placed on elevated platforms to further reduce the risk of rodents gaining access, ensuring that the horses have clean, uncontaminated food and a safe, comfortable space.
