Renting the Group's Extractor

Honey Extractor


SVBA Membership Benefit

One of the benefits of becoming a member of the Saginaw Valley Beekeepers Association is the ability to rent the honey extractor that is owned by the club.  This allows beginning beekeepers the ability to cut down on costs while learning the beekeeping hobby.  The rental includes a four frame extractor, uncapping roller, electric heated knife, double sieve strainer, two 5-gallon buckets with honey gates and uncapping tub.

Prices

The cost of renting the honey extractor is $10 per day.  A deposit of $150 will be collected and will be refunded to you after the items are returned.


Rules

Please return the extractor, tubs and other items clean for the next member's use.  Failure to do so may mean the loss of the deposit.  Bee's wax and honey melts in very hot water so this should be easy to do.  A small amount if vinegar can be used to help sterilize but be sure to rinse thoroughly,  Do not use harsh chemicals.

Randy Barkley, our current Vice President, holds the items and you will have to contact him in order to reserve your time with the equipment.
