I'll check again, but the container on mine is plastic. There might be another one there somewhere.

Yes, it's Superior, 1.45 ton of it. I could have gotten 2 ton, but I wasn't sure how the truck would handle it. Since it is a F-250 Heavy Duty I now know it can haul 2. The only time I knew how much weight was in there was when I was climbing a steep hill. Tires are LT Load Range E.

Since it was so cold I didn't have it washed as it was going in, but it is still frozen together since it was wet from the breaker.
