What Are Bulk Bags?

Frequently Asked Questions
What is the standard bulk bag size?
The one-ton bag is 35" x 35" x 40" with a 2,200 lb safe working load. Larger formats are 41" x 41" x 50" (up to 3,300 lbs) and 45" x 45" x 55" (up to 4,400 lbs); the compact 30" x 30" x 35" bag is rated for 1,000 lbs.
What is the difference between a used and a multi-use bulk bag?
A standard bag has a 5:1 safety factor and is rated for one fill and one discharge; "used" on Repackify means it has completed that cycle once. Multi-use bags are built with a 6:1 safety factor and reinforced seams for repeated cycles, which is why they cost more per bag but less per fill.
What loop styles are available?
Nearly every FIBC has 4 corner loops and must be lifted with all 4 engaged, so confirm loop length suits your forks or spreader bar. Two-loop side-loading bags and single-loop stevedore bags for port handling exist but are specialty designs; a listing states its loop count. Baffle bags have internal panels that keep the bag square, so they sit tighter on the pallet and against each other in the trailer; they do not change the bag's height or stacking rating.
How many bulk bags fit on a truck?
Empty bags ship flat in bales of 50 to 200 per pallet, so a dry van carries thousands. Filled one-ton bags are weight-bound: at 2,200 lbs a bag, the 45,000-lb payload of a 53-foot trailer caps the load at about 20 bags, below its 26 to 30 floor positions.
What are bulk bags worth for recycling?
End-of-life bags compressed into bales sell to polypropylene recyclers at about $200 to $400 per ton, with clean food-grade material at the top of that range. A once-used 5:1 single-trip bag has completed its only rated cycle and belongs in the bale; only a bag built to the 6:1 multi-use rating, with intact loops and no contamination, is worth reselling for another fill.
