Our Story
The Beginning
Washington IBC Totes was founded in Seattle with a simple mission: provide quality used containers at fair prices while promoting environmental sustainability. Starting with just a small warehouse and a handful of loyal customers, we began our journey in the IBC industry.
Expansion
As demand grew, we expanded our operations to include a full repair facility. This allowed us to recondition containers that would otherwise end up in landfills, extending their useful life and reducing waste in our community.
Regional Leader
We became the go-to supplier for businesses across Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Our reputation for quality and reliability attracted customers from diverse industries including food processing, agriculture, and chemical manufacturing.
Sustainability Focus
We launched our comprehensive recycling program, achieving a 98% recycling rate for end-of-life containers. Our commitment to sustainability earned recognition from local environmental organizations.
