As it turns out, when you need container products or expert advice, researching potential solutions and checking availability/prices can actually waste money and time. Are you really going to take the time to become an expert in reusable recycling, waste, or material handling containers?

There are people whose job it is to handle all of this busy work for you – independent container experts.

Reusable containers can dramatically reduce the cost of recycling industrial materials, but many companies still rely heavily on disposable containers. They just don’t have enough cash to buy reusable, even though they know they can save big in the long run.

There is a way that can reduce the financial impact of converting from disposable to reusable commercial recycling containers: leasing

To help our customers save capital, we’ve partnered JB2 Funding (www.jb2funding.com), a company with broad experience financing commercial equipment including containers.

Here are 4 ways leasing commercial recycling containers can benefit your company:

It’s easy to think that commercial containers are just a normal cost of doing business and there’s not a lot you can do about it.

However, with some small changes, you can create savings that will have a positive effect on your company’s bottom line – and maybe even free up budget for some of your other initiatives.

Here are 3 ways you can reduce the cost of your containers. Some may sound counterintuitive at first, but keep reading – these strategies will save you money over time.

Did you know there are three primary types of resin used to manufacture plastic bulk containers? The industry standard is linear resin, but there are alternatives: cross linked resin, and blends of virgin linear and recycled resin.

Sometimes it’s hard to find the right commercial container at the right price. You can spend hours searching for the right solution only to have it elude you.

For the last few years I've used Craigslist on occasion. When I had a few minutes, I would scan through my local listings and try to find anything that I could use at the time. Lately, I've been trying to see if there is a way this concept could benefit people with used recycling equipment.

Need to ship and store more containers in less space?

When container shipping and storage space is critical, the Cobra Collapsible is the answer.

The Cobra collapses in seconds, stacks high for storage and shipment, and replaceable steel corner hit plates and runners make it especially suitable for the rough and tumble world of commercial recycling.

The majority of the time, stock containers will work. They ship efficiently and can solve the challenges of bulk material. However, there are situations where the standard container sizes won’t work.

I don’t think most people really have appreciation for the role commercial recycling plays in the United States and international economies.

We’ve been working on a quick statement to communicate what makes us different from other container suppliers.
