How delivery actually works here

We run this region regularly but not weekly. Orders that can wait for a scheduled run ship considerably cheaper than ones that need a dedicated truck, and we will always tell you which you are being quoted.

A mix of our own trucks on scheduled runs and vetted partner carriers.
Lead time
5–8 business days to pickup, quoted firm on your written quote.
Sensible minimum
8 units for delivered freight to price sensibly.
Buyback
We buy used totes in Minnesota as well as selling them. Loads of twenty or more are worth a dedicated run almost anywhere; smaller lots work best combined with a delivery.
Collection
You are always welcome to collect at Livonia during yard hours — for small quantities it is usually the cheapest option by a wide margin.

What Minnesota buys from us

  • liquid fertilizer and micronutrient storage with camlock outlets
  • gravity-fed irrigation heads on stands, and livestock waterers with float valves
  • dosing totes with calibrated level gauges and vented lids for hypochlorite
  • polymer storage where specific gravity pushes against the cage rating

What we ship to this state

Minnesota questions

What customers here ask first

Do you actually deliver to Minnesota?
Yes. A mix of our own trucks on scheduled runs and vetted partner carriers. We run this region regularly but not weekly. Orders that can wait for a scheduled run ship considerably cheaper than ones that need a dedicated truck, and we will always tell you which you are being quoted. If your order is below the sensible minimum we will say so and suggest combining it or collecting, rather than quoting you freight that costs more than the totes.
Will you buy used totes in Minnesota?
Regularly. Send a count, the last contents and your postal code and you will have a per-unit number within a business day. Loads of twenty or more justify a dedicated run almost anywhere; smaller lots are best timed to ride an existing lane.
How is freight quoted?
By the actual lane, not by a classification table. Empty totes are very low density freight, which is why volume changes the per-unit cost so dramatically. Twenty units often ships for not much more than eight.
What about returns if something is wrong?
Five business days from delivery to raise a discrepancy against the written grade, and return freight is ours if the unit did not match it. That applies in every state we ship to.
Can we visit the yard?
Yes, and customers from much further than Minnesota do. Walk-ins are welcome during yard hours at 11966 Brookfield St, Livonia, MI 48150; bring a tape measure and closed-toe boots.

Send the postal code and the count. You will get a firm freight number and a real lead time, not an optimistic one.
