Hive Butler

Honey deserves the finest in protection.  It’s what we have worked the whole year for.  Beekeepers deserve the best in storage and protection for this amazing product.  Can’t extract today? No problem.  Running 9 in a 10-frame box? No problem.  The Hive Butler is designed to accommodate those fat honey frames with ease. 

Working through your hive just got a lot easier!  Take a Hive Butler with ventilated lid with you during inspections.  Rather than standing those frames up in the grass, slip them into the Hive Butler as you go.  If you see the queen, she’s now safely stowed away and you can continue with fewer worries and fewer bees coming back at you.

The Hive Butler is ready to take care of your off-season and transportation needs.  The interior ribs keep all sizes of frame secure no matter what.  And the lid design ensures stable stacking.  The opaque material allows light transmission, which deters wax moths.  Don’t forget about newly-constructed frames with delicate wax foundation..

Many people have expressed interest in using the Hive Butler totes for an uncapping tank setup—Just another way the Hive Butler makes your beekeeping easier!   The interior ribs hold the frames stable for you as you work your way through a super.  So, for those folks, here is a box, without a lid, which could be modified to do uncapping.  This setup took 2 HB totes, a gate and some hardware cloth.  Please use caution when cutting through the bottom of your HB!  It is VERY heavy duty.
