Buy IBC totes — the right grade, the first time
To buy, send us a quick quote request by email (no phone needed) with grade, quantity, and your ZIP. Choose from food-grade, industrial, reconditioned, rebottled, or new 275/330 gallon totes — from a single pallet to full truckloads — each backed by an inspection guarantee.
Not sure which grade you need? Match the tote to what it will hold. Consumables and potable water need food-grade; non-hazardous industrial liquids do fine on industrial reconditioned; the most budget- and planet-friendly option is a rebottled tote pairing a new HDPE bottle with a reused steel cage. Full breakdown in our grades guide.

Five ways to buy
Food-grade used totes
Previously held only FDA-approved edible products; comes with prior-contents documentation. For sweeteners, oils, vinegar, feed, and potable water.
Industrial reconditioned
Non-hazardous industrial service — soaps, surfactants, water treatment, lubricants. The workhorse grade for manufacturing and ag.
Triple-rinsed reconditioned
Cleaned, hot-washed, pressure-tested, and re-caged. Inspected bottle with proven integrity at a fraction of new cost.
Rebottled totes
A brand-new HDPE bottle mounted on a reused, inspected steel cage — near-new performance while still reusing the heavy steel.
New IBC totes
Factory-new 275 & 330 gallon tanks when your spec or QA requires zero prior contents. Available on request.
How buying works
From quote to delivery in five steps
Request a quote
Email us — no phone tag — with the grade, quantity (single pallet to truckload), and your ZIP for freight. Any quote form on the site reaches us the same way.
Confirm grade & spec
We confirm the last-contained product, cage type, valve and cap fittings, and 275 vs. 330 gallon capacity. Check the size chart if you're unsure.
Lock pricing & freight
You get a written quote with unit price, quantity break, and palletized LTL or FTL freight — arranged through our logistics team.
Inspection guarantee
Every used tote is inspected before it ships. If a unit doesn't match the grade and condition quoted, we make it right — replacement or credit.
Deliver & reload the loop
Totes arrive on standard 40x48 pallets ready to fill. When they eventually go idle, sell them back to us and keep the loop turning.
Pricing
What moves the price
We don't hide numbers behind a phone call. Here's what shapes a quote so there are no surprises.
- Grade & prior contents — food-grade and new cost more; industrial and rebottled cost less.
- Condition tier — cage integrity, valve type, and cosmetic wear all factor in.
- Quantity — truckload pricing (~40 totes) beats single-pallet pricing per unit.
- Freight distance — LTL vs. FTL and miles from our Peoria hub to your ZIP.
- Fittings & capacity — 275 vs. 330 gallon, valve and cap configuration.
The eco angle
Buying used is the greenest tank on the market
Every used tote you buy from us is one that didn't require ~120 lbs of new HDPE and steel to be manufactured. Choosing reconditioned over new avoids the energy, water, and CO₂e baked into a factory tank — and keeps a perfectly good vessel in service instead of shredded early. See the reuse math on our sustainability page and how we renew each tote in recycling & reconditioning.
