Full-Service IBC Tote Solutions

Our buy and sell service is the backbone of what we do. We maintain a rotating inventory of hundreds of reconditioned IBC totes in various grades, ready for immediate purchase and delivery. Whether you need one tote for a small batch operation or 500 for a large-scale production line, we have you covered with transparent, volume-based pricing. On the sell side, we purchase used IBC totes in any condition. Clean food-grade totes command premium buyback rates, while damaged or contaminated containers are accepted at fair market value. We handle all logistics, so you never have to worry about coordinating transportation or disposal. Our buy and sell program is designed to keep containers in circulation for as long as possible, reducing waste and saving you money compared to purchasing new totes at full retail.

When an IBC tote has reached the end of its usable life, our recycling service ensures every component is recovered and repurposed responsibly. We disassemble each tote into its core materials: HDPE plastic bottles are granulated and pelletized into raw resin, steel cages are baled and sent to smelters, and wood pallets are either refurbished or chipped for mulch and biomass fuel. Our facility achieves a 98% material recovery rate, meaning virtually nothing goes to landfill. We provide full recycling certificates and chain-of-custody documentation for your environmental compliance records. Free pickup is available on loads of 10 or more totes anywhere in our West Coast service area. For businesses with ongoing disposal needs, we offer scheduled recurring pickups on a weekly, bi-weekly, or monthly basis at discounted rates.

Our in-house transportation fleet is purpose-built for IBC tote logistics. We operate flatbed trucks capable of carrying up to 56 totes per load, enclosed trailers for food-grade and chemical-sensitive containers, and dedicated box trucks for smaller orders with same-day and next-day service in major metro areas. GPS tracking provides real-time visibility on every shipment, and all loads are secured with proper blocking and bracing to prevent shifting in transit. We cover the entire West Coast as our primary service area, with scheduled routes extending into Nevada, Arizona, Idaho, and Utah. Whether you are buying, selling, recycling, or sending totes for cleaning, we coordinate the logistics end-to-end so you never have to deal with third-party carriers. Volume discounts are available starting at 20 totes, and free pickup is included with recycling loads of 10 or more.

Our cleaning and reconditioning service transforms used IBC totes back into like-new condition. Every tote goes through a multi-step process that begins with draining and pre-rinsing, followed by high-pressure washing at 2,500+ PSI, sanitization or chemical decontamination depending on the intended use, thorough inspection and testing, and final certification and labeling. For food-grade applications, we use FDA 21 CFR-compliant cleaning agents and perform triple-rinse procedures with potable water. Bacterial swab testing is available on request. For chemical containers, we follow strict neutralization protocols with RCRA-compliant waste handling for hazardous residues. Each cleaned tote receives a certificate documenting the date, process used, and grade rating. Turnaround ranges from 1-2 business days for standard washes to 3-5 days for chemical decontamination, with rush same-day service available in metro areas.

When off-the-shelf IBC totes do not meet your operational requirements, our custom modification service bridges the gap. We offer valve upgrades in stainless steel, polypropylene, and PVDF for chemical resistance. Heating systems include wrap-around blankets, immersion heaters, and thermostatically controlled jackets for viscous liquids and freeze protection. Insulation wraps in closed-cell foam or reflective thermal blankets maintain product temperature across a -20 to 200 degree Fahrenheit range. Additional modifications include custom inlet and outlet ports, sight glasses, level indicators, pressure relief valves, mixing and agitation brackets, baffles, and secondary containment systems that meet EPA 40 CFR 264.175 requirements. Our engineering team reviews your specifications, selects the right materials, and provides a detailed proposal with pricing and lead time. For orders over 25 units, we build a sample for your approval before full production. Most valve swaps ship in 2-3 days, while fully engineered solutions typically require 2-4 weeks.
