Bring us your corn.
We'll get you across the scale fast.
Prime Grain is a locally owned grain elevator serving farms in our area. Badge-in truck scale ticketing, on-site moisture testing, and text alerts that keep your trucks moving during harvest.
About Prime Grain
Prime Grain operates the grain elevator at Frankfort, Indiana, receiving corn from producers and custom haulers throughout the region. The facility was recently taken over and modernized: our truck scale, message board, ticket printer and moisture testing all run on one system, so drivers spend less time waiting and every load is documented the same way, every time.
We are a small local team. When you call, you get someone at the scale house, not a call center.
What we do
Grain receiving
Corn delivered by farm truck or semi. Fast unload, clear direction from the lane sign, and a printed scale ticket on every load.
Badge-in scale ticketing
Each truck gets a badge tied to your account. Badge in on the way in, badge out on the way out: gross, tare and net are recorded automatically and printed for the driver.
Moisture testing
Moisture is tested on site and attached to your ticket, so you and your driver see the same number we do.
Text alerts
Optional operational texts for account holders: a truck that badged in but never badged out, and elevator status updates. Details below.
Prime Grain text alerts
Account holders can receive operational text messages from Prime Grain. This is a customer-service program, not marketing.

Privacy policy
Effective September 24, 2026
Prime Grain ("we", "us") collects only the information needed to receive grain and serve your account: business or farm name, contact name, mailing address, phone number, email address, truck identifiers, and the weights, moisture readings and ticket numbers associated with your deliveries.
How we use it
- To weigh, document and settle your grain deliveries and to print scale tickets.
- To contact you about your account and your deliveries, including by text message if you have opted in to Prime Grain Alerts.
- To keep the records that grain handling and accounting rules require.
Text messaging
If you opt in to Prime Grain Alerts, we store your mobile number with your account and use it only to send the messages described in the Text alerts section. No mobile information will be shared with third parties or affiliates for marketing or promotional purposes. Information sharing to subcontractors in support services, such as customer service, is permitted; all other use-case categories exclude text messaging originator opt-in data and consent, and this information will not be shared with any third parties. You can opt out at any time by replying STOP.
Sharing
We do not sell your information. We share it only with service providers who help us operate (for example, our text-messaging and accounting providers), and only for that purpose, or when required by law.
Your choices
You can ask to see, correct or delete the contact information we hold for you by calling the elevator. Delivery records are retained as required for grain accounting.
Terms of service
By delivering grain to Prime Grain or using our text-alert program you agree to these terms.
- Weights are determined by our certified truck scale and moisture by our on-site tester; the printed scale ticket is the record of each delivery. Discrepancies must be raised at the scale house on the day of delivery.
- Badges are issued to your account and remain our property. Tell us promptly if a badge is lost so we can deactivate it.
- Prime Grain Alerts are provided as a convenience. We are not responsible for messages that are delayed or not delivered by your carrier, and alerts do not replace the printed ticket or direct contact with the scale house.
- Message and data rates may apply. Reply STOP to cancel, HELP for help.
