Equipment Help Off I-55
Dwight sits where Route 66 history meets working farm ground, and most folks here split their days between the field, the shop and a drafty older house. That mix shapes what you need from an equipment supplier. Midwest Agri-Com has served central Illinois since 1975. You will find our Ottawa showroom along Route 71 an easy trip northwest from the I-55 corridor. You can talk through in-bin drying and unload systems before harvest, pick up welding wire and electrodes for a broken hitch, or compare wood, corn and pellet stoves for winter. Every visit starts with a free in-store estimate and a straight answer about what fits your operation and your home.
Our Service
Grain, Welding and Hearth Under One Roof
Livingston County harvests move fast, and a dryer or elevator leg that quits in October costs real money. Our crew helps you plan grain handling around your bushels, pairing drying setups with stirring machines, then adding unload systems and safer bin stairs where they pay off. On the shop side, we stock torches, plasma cutters, filler rods, handles and fuel kits, and we sell and service welding equipment so your machine keeps running through repair season. Inside the house, we design and build fireplaces framed in brick, wrapped in cultured stone or finished with a wood mantel, plus tools and accessories to complete the job. Wood, gas, corn and pellet stoves come in cast iron, steel and soapstone. We handle installation, inspection, repair, maintenance and restoration, so you have one dependable source for the farm and the living room.

Why Dwight Families Call Us First
Out along I-55, Dwight households tend to judge a supplier by what happens after the invoice, and that is where Midwest Agri-Com works to earn your trust. Our family has owned and run this business while serving customers since 1975, which means decades of solving the same kinds of problems you face. A personalized expert consultation opens every project, so a sagging bin stair, a cold back bedroom or a welder that sputters on thick plate each gets its own plan. Free in-store estimates lay out the cost before you agree to anything. You can count on competitive pricing on quality products instead of bargain gear that fails mid-harvest. An experienced sales team handles the questions up front, and professional service covers installation, inspection and repair later. Plain talk, fair numbers and follow-through are the whole pitch.

What is the safest way to handle and dispose of wood stove ashes?
Let ashes cool in the firebox, then shovel them into a metal container with a tight lid and set it outside on a noncombustible surface, away from the house, garage and woodpile. Buried coals can stay hot for days, so skip cardboard boxes and plastic buckets. Cooled hardwood ash can go on garden beds in small amounts.
Is MIG or stick welding better for repairing farm equipment in the field?
Dryer capacity depends on bushels harvested per day, incoming moisture and how many points you need to remove. A dryer that keeps pace with your combine prevents wet grain from stacking up. Share your acres, crop mix and typical harvest moisture, and we will help you plan in-bin or stirring options that fit.
