A few of their bins were damaged from the recent wind storms and the decision was made to take down the old bins which were no longer being used. Rysavy hired Northwest Concrete Cutting & Crane Service out of Sioux Falls to bring down their large crane for this project. Between the two, one bin came crashing down Tuesday with four more to follow next. Photo by Barb Pechous
