I had my neighbor move three 18' bins and he set them on pads I poured for them. He had two pipes with a tire on each side with cross braces curved so it would fit the bin. The back end had wide runners that were curved. The front had a hitch. The truck was about 20' long so it would cradle a bin. He would take a loader to pick the up and place it against the bin, then cable it to the truck and place a X brace inside. Take his loader and pull it over. Hook it up to his tractor and down the road he would go. When he came to a ground electrial wire, he would put a board on top of the bin so it would not catch the bolts. He had it made so the roof did not hit the pipes, maybe he had it doubled piped. But he only used it for 18' bins. He moved a lot of government bins. I have seen helicopters move them also.
I think I would take the insurance money and down the road I would go. Either buy a larger bin or none at all.
