How it runs
4 steps, start to finish.
Short-term containers for a seasonal run, a plant shutdown or a one-off project.
- 01
Define the window
Four-week minimum. Tell us the honest end date and we'll price the honest term.
- 02
Delivered clean and tested
Same standard as a sale unit — a rental is not a way to shift tired stock.
- 03
Extend or return
Extend by the week at the same rate. No penalty for keeping them longer, just tell us.
- 04
We collect and wash
Return condition is 'empty and drained'. The wash is on us.
When renting beats buying
Any time the need has an end date. Seasonal production runs, plant shutdowns and tank cleanouts, construction water supply, event and film production, emergency containment. Buying containers for a six-week job means owning them for the following six years.
It is also the lowest-impact option there is
A rental tote serves dozens of jobs across its life instead of one. Per job, the embodied burden is a fraction of even a reconditioned purchase — which makes rental the quiet winner on the reuse ladder that almost nobody asks about.
Terms without traps
Four-week minimum, then extend by the week at the same rate. Delivery, collection and the end-of-term wash are all included. Return condition is “empty and drained” — not “spotless”, because cleaning them is our job and pretending otherwise is how rental companies make their margin on penalties.
Where this service runs
Seventy-five miles out of Astoria.
Lead times shorten the closer you are. Inside the five boroughs this is usually a same-week job; the outer counties consolidate into full loads.

Frequently asked questions
Rental Programs, answered.
The five things people ask us most before starting this service.
When does renting beat buying IBC totes?
Any time the need has an end date: seasonal production runs, plant shutdowns, tank cleanouts, construction water supply, event production and emergency containment.
What is the minimum rental term?
Four weeks, then extend by the week at the same rate. Delivery, collection and the end-of-term wash are all included in the rate.
What condition must totes come back in?
Empty and drained — not spotless. Cleaning them is our job, and pretending otherwise is how rental companies make their margin on penalties.
Is renting better environmentally than buying?
Yes. A rental tote serves dozens of jobs across its life, so the embodied burden per job is a fraction of even a reconditioned purchase.
Can I rent food-grade or UN-marked totes?
Yes, subject to stock. Tell us the product and the journey and we will reserve the right specification ahead of your start date.
