What to Check Before You Buy

Inspect the Crate's Condition

Look for these problems:

Cracks in the plastic (especially at corners)

Sun damage (plastic looks faded or brittle)

Broken handles or edges

Warped bottom that won't stack properly

Make Sure It's the Right Size

Measure twice, buy once. A standard milk crate won't fit the same things as a produce crate. Bring a tape measure or ask for exact dimensions.

Check If It's Food-Safe

If you plan to store food, ask about the crate's previous use. Avoid crates that held chemicals or non-food items.

Smart Buying Tips

For bulk orders:

Compare shipping costs between suppliers

Ask about pickup options to save money

Request a sample crate first for large orders

For individual crates:

Buy from locations you can visit to inspect first

Bring cash for better negotiation power

Check multiple sources before buying

Cleaning used crates:

Wash with warm soapy water

For food use, sanitize with diluted bleach solution

Let dry completely before storing

Other Places to Look

Industrial suppliers sometimes sell surplus new crates at reduced prices, but they're usually still more expensive than used options.

Equipment rental stores rent moving crates that might work for temporary needs.

Food distributors occasionally sell surplus crates at the end of seasons.

Bottom Line

For most people, RePackify offers the best combination of price, selection, and reliability. Use local classifieds for one-off purchases or when you need just a few crates quickly.

Remember: buying used plastic crates saves you money and helps the environment. You're getting quality materials at a fraction of the new price while keeping useful items in circulation.
