Serving Akron

What we deliver, and how

Inside 300 miles of the Livonia yard, we control the schedule and the handling ourselves. Backhaul slots are frequent, which usually means better freight and a better buyback number if you can be flexible by a week. A good share of enquiries here start as a buyback — a yard full of empties that somebody has been quoted a disposal price for.

Reconditioned 275 & 330 gallon totes — washed, leak-tested, new valve and gasket, graded honestly and photographed before they load.
Food-grade and rebottled units — documented food-only history, or a brand-new HDPE bottle in a refurbished cage.
New and one-trip stock — when a quality programme requires a virgin interior.
Accessories — S60x6 adapters, camlocks, vented lids, jackets, spill pallets, pumps.
Cash buyback — we buy used totes in Akron as well as selling them, including the ones you were about to pay to dispose of.
Recycling — end-of-life units granulated and re-melted, with a disposition statement if you need it for reporting.

Before you order

Three things to check in Akron

These are the questions that decide whether a delivery goes smoothly, and they are the same three everywhere — people just answer them too late.

Check	Why it matters	What to tell us
Door and gate height	A 330 runs 53–59" before forks. It is the single most common cancelled order.	The measured clear height of your lowest opening
Handling equipment	No forklift means a lift-gate truck, which caps the load at about 14 units.	Forklift, pallet jack, tractor with forks, or nothing
Ground and access	A loaded pallet jack sinks on soft ground, and a 48' trailer needs room to turn.	Surface type, and whether a tractor-trailer can turn at your address

Akron FAQ

Straight answers

Do you have a depot in Akron?

No, and we will not pretend otherwise. We run one yard, at 11966 Brookfield St, Livonia, MI 48150, where every unit is graded, washed and loaded. What Akron gets is a real lead time (2–4 business days to pickup) and a freight number for the actual lane.

What does delivery to Akron cost?

It depends on the count far more than on the distance, because empty totes are extremely low-density freight. 4 units for a scheduled pickup; 1 unit for collection at the yard is the point at which the per-unit freight stops dominating. Send a postal code and a quantity and you will get a firm number.

Will you collect used totes from Akron?

Yes. Tell us the count, the last contents and whether they are staged for a forklift. Inside our core radius that is a scheduled pickup; further out we combine it with a delivery or run it when enough volume accumulates on the lane.

Can I just collect them myself?

Always welcome during yard hours in Livonia. For one to four units it is usually the cheapest route, and you get to pick your own cages off the staging rows.

How quickly can you answer?

Same business day in almost every case, always within one. By email — we do not operate a phone line, because written questions get written grades and written prices.
