Thanks for the response AGBOY. We have been storing Urea in Epoxy lined Wheatland bins 16ft dia. x 30 tall (120 tons each). I usually dump a sack of kitty litter in first to trap some of the moisture in the bottoms. My concern is in buying in August when it's bottomed out and storing through some pretty significant heat. We haven't had a problem yet but haven't pushed it to far. Volatization is a concern in my mind. Humidity is nonexistent here so that's a plus. We have had alot more trouble with 11-52-00 shifting around violently than the Urea but I know it takes awhile to get things moving when pulling it out.

What do you think about the heat concern?
