Yes, feed bins are financed as a standard asset purchase, usually on hire purchase or a lease, with the machine itself acting as the security. UK prices typically run £1,500 to £25,000, and most deals are written over 12-60 months with a deposit of around 10-20%. Decisions typically take 24–48 hours. Used machines are financeable too, usually with a shorter term.

Guide prices for sizing a finance agreement, not quotes. Manufacturers in this market mostly price on application, so where a current UK list price could not be confirmed the row describes a specification class rather than naming a model. Your supplier quote is what the agreement is written against.

Check EligibilityA feed bin is a freestanding steel structure mounted on legs and craned into place, which makes it a more comfortable case for the plant and machinery capital allowances regime than a poured or block-built structure such as a cattle shed or a grain store built into a permanent building. Unlike a large grain silo integrated into a farm building, a feed bin is genuinely portable in the way it is delivered and installed, and can generally be relocated by crane if the farm layout changes. HP agreements let you claim capital allowances directly; lease payments are deducted as a running cost.
Feed bins are typically bought by livestock and poultry farms moving from bagged feed delivered by hand to bulk feed delivered by tanker and blown directly into the bin, which reduces manual handling and storage space taken up by pallets of bags. Replacement or additional bins are usually driven by expanding stock numbers, a change of feed supplier requiring a different bin specification, or a switch from bagged to bulk delivery. Because feed bins are relatively standardised, freestanding steel structures, they hold reasonable resale value and are straightforward for a lender to assess compared with a farm building.
