Six things
we do with a tote
Most container yards buy and sell. We also wash, rebuild, haul, recover and granulate — which is exactly why we can afford to be honest with you about which of those you actually need.

Which one do you need?
Pick the closest service on the form and describe the situation. If you have picked the wrong one we will move it — nobody loses a quote over a dropdown.
The short answer
The six services form a loop rather than a menu. A container we buy from you gets washed, rebuilt and sold to someone else; when it comes back the third time it gets rebottled; when the cage finally dies it gets granulated and baled. Freight moves it between those stages, and asset recovery is that loop run as a programme across many sites at once.
- Have containers to get rid of → we buy them, and we take the scrap too
- Own your fleet and need it fit to fill → the wash line
- Containers genuinely at end of life → recycling with weigh tickets
- Many sites, quarterly volumes, an ESG report due → asset recovery

?Common questions
Questions people actually ask
Which service do I need if I just want containers gone?
Buy-back. Send a count, a ZIP and four photographs and a written banded price comes back the same day. We price whole stacks rather than cherry-picking, so the damaged units in the corner leave with the good ones instead of becoming your disposal problem.
Do you recondition containers I already own, or only ones you sell?
Both. Reconditioning is sold as a per-unit service on customer-owned fleets — you keep the assets, we wash, test and rebuild them and return documented wash records. Wash line capacity is roughly 260 units a week at L1–L2 and 140 at L3–L4, which is what sets the turnaround.
How quickly can you turn a load around?
Stock on the sales row can be collected immediately and delivered next day inside the Austin metro. L1–L2 reconditioning is three business days, L3–L4 four to six, rebottling three to seven days depending on bottle stock, and custom fabrication one to two weeks.
Do you charge for collection?
Not on qualifying buy-back loads. Twenty units or more anywhere we run, or any quantity inside Austin, is collected free. Below that threshold freight usually exceeds the value of the containers, and we will say so rather than quietly quoting it.
Can you combine several services on one job?
That is the normal case rather than the exception. A single visit routinely drops reconditioned stock, collects your empties, takes the scrap for granulation and leaves a weigh ticket behind. Asset recovery is that combination run as a scheduled programme across many sites.
