What is an IBC Tote?
IBC totes (Intermediate Bulk Containers) are industrial-grade containers designed for storing and transporting liquids, semi-solids, and granular materials. They bridge the gap between drums and tank trucks, offering efficient storage with capacities typically ranging from 275 to 330 gallons.
The design consists of a rigid HDPE (High-Density Polyethylene) inner bottle supported by a galvanized steel cage, all mounted on a pallet base. This construction provides excellent protection while remaining lightweight and easy to handle with standard forklifts.
IBC totes are widely used across industries including food processing, chemicals, pharmaceuticals, agriculture, and manufacturing due to their versatility, reusability, and cost-effectiveness. They can be cleaned and reused multiple times, making them an environmentally responsible choice.
At New Jersey Package, we offer a comprehensive selection of IBC totes to meet every need and budget. From budget-friendly used totes to brand-new food-grade containers, we have the right solution for your application.

Frequently Asked Questions
Common questions about IBC totes
How long do IBC totes last?
With proper care, IBC totes can last 5-10 years or more. The inner bottle may need replacement after 3-5 years of heavy use, but the steel cage can last indefinitely.
Can IBC totes be used for drinking water?
Yes, food-grade IBC totes that have only held potable substances can be used for drinking water. We recommend new or certified food-grade totes for this application.
How do I clean an IBC tote?
Cleaning methods vary by previous contents. Generally, triple rinsing with appropriate solvents or detergents is effective. We offer professional cleaning services for thorough reconditioning.
What is the difference between cage and composite IBCs?
Cage IBCs have a steel frame and are more durable for outdoor use. Composite IBCs have a plastic outer frame, making them lighter and rust-proof but less robust.

Yes, we stock UN certified IBCs for transporting hazardous materials. These meet DOT requirements for shipping regulated substances.
