[AT] Manure spreaders

OK, so we (my wife) have 2 horses that generate around 2-3 wheelbarrows 
worth of manure each day. I load it into a 3 sided structure made from 
railroad ties until it is jammed full and piled as high as my tractor 
will reach. I try to turn it as much as I can, but that doesn't happen 
very often as it gets too big to turn given my time allowed. Would a 
manure spreader be a better way to handle what comes our way each day? I 
would estimate that there is about 20 yards of manure in the bin right 
now, and as soon as things dry out a bit, I'll start emptying it. Up 
until now I've been using it to help build up low spots in the pastures. 
Any advantage to a spreader, or would it be better to keep doing what 
I'm doing?

I've looked on CL and all I can come up with is brand new ones $$$$ or 
used ones that look like they would need a lot of attention. Any 
thoughts would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Mike M
