About BulkCycle
BulkCycle is a referral service. We match businesses that want to buy, sell or recycle used IBC tanks, pallets and gaylord boxes with partner suppliers in our network.
What BulkCycle Does
You tell us what you need through the quote form. We pass your request to partner suppliers that handle that product in your area, and a supplier follows up with you directly.
BulkCycle does not own a warehouse, trucks or inventory. The products, prices, pickup and delivery come from the partner supplier who quotes you, and any sale is between you and that supplier.
We take requests from across the United States and Canada. Availability depends on partner suppliers near you, so a request may not always find a match.

What Grades Mean
Used packaging is sold by grade. Names differ between suppliers, but they usually follow this pattern. Ask the supplier how they grade what they quote.
Like new
Little or no visible wear, all parts sound. Usually the highest price.
Standard
Normal wear and minor repairs, fully usable for shipping and storage.
Economy
Visible wear, staining or repairs, still functional. Often used for one-way trips.
Recycling
At the end of its useful life; suited to recycling or a last trip.

Frequently Asked Questions
Does BulkCycle sell packaging itself?
No. BulkCycle is a referral service. Partner suppliers in our network set prices, terms, delivery, warranties and returns, and the sale or purchase is between you and that supplier.
Where do you take requests from?
From across the United States and Canada. Whether a supplier can help depends on where you are and what you need.
Can I inspect products before I buy?
Ask the partner supplier who quotes you. Many suppliers can share photos or describe the condition in detail.
How do payment and terms work?
Payment methods and terms are set by the partner supplier, not by BulkCycle. Ask about them when the supplier contacts you.
How do I get started?
Fill out the quote form with the product, quantity and your ZIP or postal code. You can also email info@usedpackaging.org.
