Dry fertilizer storage and blending question?

For those of you who get your own fertilizer and store it on farm, what structures do you use to store the fertilizer and how do you blend it?

Im thinking about purchasing some hopper bottom bins, but Im not sure if it would flow? Would it be better to build a cold storage shed with cement floor so it would serve as cold storage in winter and fertilizer storage in the spring?

Whats the cheapest or most efficient way to blend?

Thanks!
