Serving Michigan

How delivery actually works here

Inside 300 miles of the Livonia yard, we control the schedule and the handling ourselves. Backhaul slots are frequent, which usually means better freight and a better buyback number if you can be flexible by a week.

Freight
Our own flatbeds and box trucks run here weekly.
Lead time
2–4 business days to pickup, quoted firm on your written quote.
Sensible minimum
4 units for a scheduled pickup; 1 unit for collection at the yard.
Buyback
We buy used totes in Michigan as well as selling them. Loads of twenty or more are worth a dedicated run almost anywhere; smaller lots work best combined with a delivery.
Collection
You are always welcome to collect at Livonia during yard hours — for small quantities it is usually the cheapest option by a wide margin.

What Michigan buys from us

  • liquid fertilizer and micronutrient storage with camlock outlets
  • gravity-fed irrigation heads on stands, and livestock waterers with float valves
  • documented food-grade units for edible liquids and produce wash
  • rebottled totes where a virgin interior is required by the quality programme
  • dosing totes with calibrated level gauges and vented lids for hypochlorite
  • polymer storage where specific gravity pushes against the cage rating

What we ship to this state

Formats and grades

Availability is the same everywhere; what changes by state is which grades get ordered and what the freight does to the arithmetic.

Michigan questions

What customers here ask first

Do you actually deliver to Michigan?
Yes. Our own flatbeds and box trucks run here weekly. Inside 300 miles of the Livonia yard, we control the schedule and the handling ourselves. Backhaul slots are frequent, which usually means better freight and a better buyback number if you can be flexible by a week. If your order is below the sensible minimum we will say so and suggest combining it or collecting, rather than quoting you freight that costs more than the totes.
Will you buy used totes in Michigan?
Regularly. Send a count, the last contents and your postal code and you will have a per-unit number within a business day. Loads of twenty or more justify a dedicated run almost anywhere; smaller lots are best timed to ride an existing lane.
How is freight quoted?
By the actual lane, not by a classification table. Empty totes are very low density freight, which is why volume changes the per-unit cost so dramatically. Twenty units often ships for not much more than eight.
What about returns if something is wrong?
Five business days from delivery to raise a discrepancy against the written grade, and return freight is ours if the unit did not match it. That applies in every state we ship to.
Can we visit the yard?
Yes, and customers from much further than Michigan do. Walk-ins are welcome during yard hours at 11966 Brookfield St, Livonia, MI 48150; bring a tape measure and closed-toe boots.
