Default Storing Manure

I'm getting a load of fresh manure for my allotment, but the manure will
have to be stored for a few months. How is it best to store? Should it
simply be left as an uncovered heap, or can it be put into a big plastic
dalek compost bin?

Thanks.

I do both, the worms don't mind which.

Wherever you store it it is preferable to cover as the rain will wash
