Liquid Storage Containers

Bulk Liquid Containers with Collapsible Wall and Discharge Valves

Unlike traditional barrels and drums, our plastic liquid storage containers offer a design advantage that eliminates “dead space” during storage. Their rectangular or square shapes make stacking and side-by-side placement a breeze, maximizing storage efficiency. Equipped with a range of tailored features, including bottom or top discharge valves and drop doors for easy access, these bulk liquid containers provide utility without breaking the bank. Plus, our reusable plastic solutions are both eco-friendly and durable. They outlast steel and wooden alternatives, reducing the need for frequent replacements and benefiting the environment. When they reach the end of their life cycle, we even offer container recycling, making us a full-circle solution provider for all your bulk liquid container needs.

The Best IBCs in the Industry

Reusable liquid bins bring tremendous value to industrial and commercial operations. From pallet-sized intermediate bulk containers (IBCs) to smaller formats, our reusable liquid bins are used for everything from salsas to cosmetics to pharmaceuticals. Built tough, reusable liquid bins provide the very best value for both budgets and operations.

When it comes to transporting cargo or storing products in liquid form, there are many additional factors to consider in order to ensure the product’s safety. While any plastic bin may seem like a suitable container for liquid, this is not the case.

We have more than 25 years of experience helping companies in a wide array of industries – including agriculture and food processing – find reusable packaging that saves money and protects products. When you trust in our expertise, we will help make your supply chain as efficient as possible.

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of liquids can your IBC containers safely transport and store?

Our intermediate bulk containers handle a remarkable range of liquid products and materials beyond just basic liquids. You can transport everything from food grade items like salsas, fruit pastes, vegetable pastes, and oils to industrial chemicals, cosmetics, and pharmaceutical products. We’ve built these containers specifically for bulk liquids, gels, granules, and powders, which makes them incredibly versatile for your operation. The containers are constructed from FDA-approved polymers, so they’re completely safe for food processing applications while also being rated for dangerous goods and chemicals with UN certification available. Whether you’re moving hygienic food products or industrial materials, our containers meet the strict safety standards your business requires while keeping your valuable products protected throughout transport and storage.

How much can I save by switching from traditional drums and barrels to your liquid bins?

We’ve seen companies dramatically reduce their packaging and transport costs by making the switch to our reusable liquid bins, and here’s why the savings add up quickly. Traditional drums and barrels create significant dead space during storage and transport because of their cylindrical shape, but our rectangular and square containers eliminate that waste completely. You can stack them efficiently and place them side by side without gaps, maximizing every inch of your warehouse and truck space. The collapsible models collapse down to just 12.7 inches when empty, which means you’ll pay much less for return shipping costs. Plus, these containers are built to last for years of repeated use, unlike disposable alternatives that you’re constantly replacing. With over 25 years of helping companies reduce their packaging costs, we’ve consistently delivered the best products at competitive prices that translate into real bottom line savings for your operation.

What size options do you have available, and which one would work best for my business?

We carry a comprehensive range of sizes from compact 120 gallon containers all the way up to large 330 gallon capacity units, so there’s definitely an option that fits your specific volume needs. Our popular sizes include 36x36x36 containers holding 120 gallons, 42x42x42 units also at 120 gallons, larger 180 gallon containers measuring 42x48x33, and high capacity 330 gallon bins sized at 48x44x48. Each size comes with different discharge options like bottom discharge valves or top discharge, plus features like drop doors for easy access to contents. The best size for your operation depends on your typical batch volumes, storage space, and transport requirements. We’re happy to work with you to analyze your current setup and recommend the most cost effective size that maximizes your storage efficiency while meeting your operational needs. Our team has helped companies across agriculture, food processing, and industrial sectors find their perfect match.

How quickly can you deliver containers once I place an order?

We pride ourselves on fast delivery because we know you need your containers quickly to keep your operations running smoothly. With multiple storage warehouses strategically located across the country, we can ship your order and have containers delivered to you within just a matter of days after you place your order. This quick turnaround time is possible because we keep popular sizes and configurations in stock and ready to ship immediately, rather than making you wait weeks for manufacturing. Once we receive your order, our customer service team stays in touch to provide continued support and tracking information so you know exactly when to expect your delivery. We’ve built our reputation on consistently offering the best products at the best prices right when they’re needed, and our rapid shipping capabilities are a big part of what sets us apart from competitors who might leave you waiting for weeks or months.

Are your containers easy to clean and maintain for food grade applications?

Absolutely, we designed these containers specifically with easy cleaning and food safety in mind because we know how critical sanitation is for your food processing operations. The smooth plastic surfaces won’t hold odors and are completely safe to use with standard detergents and sanitizing solutions, which makes your cleaning process much simpler and more thorough. Unlike porous materials that can harbor bacteria, our HDPE construction provides a hygienic surface that sanitizes easily between batches. We also offer optional sanitary liners that pair perfectly with the smooth interior surfaces for applications that require the highest levels of cleanliness. The wide access points and drop door features on many models give your cleaning crew easy access to every corner of the container, so there are no hard to reach spots where residue might build up. Since they’re made from FDA-approved polymers, you can be confident they meet all food grade requirements while being durable enough to withstand repeated cleaning cycles without degrading.
