What reconditioning usually includes

Ask the supplier which of these they do.

There is no single industry definition of “reconditioned”, so confirm the details with the partner supplier who quotes you.

  • Draining and washing the inside of the bottle
  • Inspecting the bottle for cracks, stress whitening and leaks
  • Checking the cage for broken welds and bent tubes
  • Replacing worn valves, gaskets and lids
  • Recording what the tote held before
Frequently asked

Questions about reconditioned totes

Full FAQ →
Is a reconditioned tote food-grade?
Not automatically. Whether a tote suits food depends on what it held before and how it was cleaned. IBC Second Life doesn’t certify totes; ask the partner supplier for documentation, or choose new.
What is the difference between reconditioned and rebottled?
A reconditioned tote keeps its original bottle, washed. A rebottled tote has a new bottle in a used cage, so the bottle has no previous contents.
Does a reconditioned tote come with a warranty?
Any warranty comes from the partner supplier, not from this site. Ask about it before you accept a quote.
