Why Buy Used IBC Totes?

You save serious money. A new 275-gallon container costs $185. A used one in good condition costs just $28-$50. That's like getting three containers for the price of one new one.

Used containers work just as well as new ones. The thick plastic bottle sits inside a protective steel cage. With proper care, these containers last 10-15 years.

What Types Can You Buy?

Basic used containers ($28): Good for non-food liquids like cleaning supplies or industrial chemicals. May have some staining but structurally sound.

Cleaned containers ($50): Triple-rinsed and ready to use. Safe for food-grade liquids when properly certified.

Like-new containers ($125): Reconditioned with new parts if needed. Look and work like new containers.

Example: A landscaping company bought 10 used containers at $35 each instead of new ones at $185 each. They saved $1,500 while getting the same storage capacity.

How to Choose the Right Container

Step 1: Know what you're storing

• Food or beverages? You need food-grade certification

• Chemicals? Check the previous contents to avoid contamination

• Water or non-hazardous liquids? Basic used containers work fine

Step 2: Inspect before buying

• Look inside the plastic bottle for cracks or strong odors

• Check the steel cage for rust or bent bars

• Make sure the valve works properly

Step 3: Ask about the history

• What was stored in it last?

• How old is the container?

• Has it been cleaned?
