I did my first two papercrete mixes with a borrowed tow behind. That mixer was made from a 275 gallon tote. These totes are very affordable on the used market. Normally $20 - $40 each. My problem with it was the height. It was very difficult to get the mix out. We could have added a large ball valve to release the mix, but it was not mine to modify. The owner who still has it tried adding auger to move the mix, but the motor was too slow. In the end we just tipped the tote over and shoveled out the mix. That mixer is probably for sale if anyone is interested.
I have found four sources for these totes near Animas Creek, Las Cruces, Derry, and Silver City, NM. The totes were originally used to hold different things such as animal feed supplements, bentonite clay, vinegar and so on. I use two of the vinegar totes for water catchment off my roof. They are also great for waste veggie oil storage.
