Everything
we sell

Seven product lines, all built around the same principle: the reused option should be the cheapest option, and you should be able to see exactly what you are buying before it leaves the yard.

Not sure which line you need?

Describe what goes in the container and how many you need. We will tell you the cheapest grade that will do the job — including when that is not the one you asked for.

Quotes are written by a human in the Austin yard, usually the same day. We never sell or share what you send us.

The short answer

Most buyers want one of three things. If the container holds water, waste or industrial product, buy reconditioned — washed, rebuilt and tested, from $105. If the interior must be clean but the paperwork does not need to cover every component, buy rebottled — a virgin bottle in a reclaimed cage, from $189. If a contract, an insurer or transport regulation requires virgin components, buy new, from $310.

  • Food or livestock contact → food grade with a prior-contents declaration
  • Shipping a regulated liquid under a UN mark → new or professionally requalified
  • Rain, irrigation, ballast, dust suppression → C grade, and do not overspend
  • Something creative → the upcycled line, or send a sketch to fabrication

What things cost, published

Indicative bands for a 26-unit load delivered in Central Texas, mid-2026. Freight, grade availability and prior-contents documentation move the final number — but not by as much as you might fear.

Below six units, freight typically exceeds the value of the containers and we will tell you so rather than quietly quoting it. Yard collection from Montopolis Drive is always an option, and it is always the cheapest one.

03Decision help

Which line, in four questions

Does the container touch food, drink or livestock?

Then you need documented prior contents — food grade with a declaration, or rebottled with a virgin bottle. No amount of cleaning converts an industrial container into a food one, because absorbed contaminants live inside the polymer rather than on its surface.

Are you offering a regulated liquid for transport?

Then you need new or professionally requalified containers with current UN marking and test documentation. A used tote's original data plate records what it was at manufacture, not what it is certified for now.

Is the product light-coloured, fragranced or odour-sensitive?

Rebottled. Staining tints light products and absorbed odour transfers. Both are permanent and neither is a defect — they are specification errors, and they are avoidable for about $60 a container.

Is it water, waste, wash-down, ag or ballast?

Reconditioned, and buy the lowest grade that is structurally sound. A car wash does not need a food grade tote, and paying for one is money set on fire.
