Grade B Frequently Asked Questions
What exactly is "cosmetic wear" on Grade B tanks?
Cosmetic wear refers to minor surface imperfections such as light scratches, scuff marks, slight discoloration, or small dents. These do not affect structural integrity or functionality—they simply show prior use, similar to a used car with a few paint chips.
Are Grade B tanks safe for food-grade applications?
Yes, when they originate from food-grade use and are specified as food-grade certified. We clearly label tanks that maintain food-grade certification—always confirm certification status for your application when ordering.
How much can I save with Grade B versus Grade A?
Grade B tanks typically cost 40–60% less than Grade A and up to 70% less than new tanks. For instance, if a new tank costs $400, Grade A might be $250, and Grade B around $125–150. Bulk orders qualify for additional discounts.
What is included in your reconditioning process?
Every Grade B tank is pressure washed, industrially cleaned with appropriate solvents, sanitized, valve-tested and replaced if needed, gasket-inspected and replaced, leak-tested, and given a final 12-point quality inspection.
Can I see the tanks before purchasing?
Yes. You can visit our Boston facility to inspect tanks in person, review condition, and select specific units from inventory. Contact us to schedule a visit.
Do you offer delivery for Grade B tanks?
We deliver throughout Massachusetts and neighboring states and can arrange nationwide freight for larger orders. Local pickup is also available for the best value if you can transport tanks yourself.
What previous contents are typical for Grade B tanks?
They commonly held food ingredients, industrial chemicals, cleaning solutions, oils, or agricultural products. We document previous contents and thoroughly clean each tank; some applications may require specific previous-use histories.
How long do Grade B tanks typically last?
With proper use and maintenance, Grade B tanks often last 5–10+ years. Lifespan depends on stored materials, handling practices, and storage conditions—many customers use the same units for years without issues.
What if I need a better cosmetic appearance?
If your application requires pristine looks—customer-facing areas or strict aesthetics—consider our Grade A tanks. We can help choose the best grade for your needs.
Do you buy back used Grade B tanks?
Yes. We purchase used IBC tanks in all conditions. If your Grade B tanks are no longer needed, we will evaluate them for reconditioning and potential buyback to keep the cycle sustainable.
