Companies We Work With

Manufacturers

At Verde Trader we understand that every manufacturing facility is different, with its own unique goals and restraints. In light of this, we’ve built our platform with the ability to be flexible, to accommodate those different needs. 

An account manager will work closely with you to determine the best solution for your facility, keeping in mind your individual objectives and concerns. 

Recyclers

If you are a tradition recycler and have an account that generates IBC Totes in their waste stream we are just the place to find those containers a new home.

At Verde Trader we help recyclers across the nation to move all of their IBC Totes month after month, and make certain they never accumulate in their warehouse.

Brokers

Here at Verde Trader, we offer a vast inventory of containers across the country. We’re delighted to work with brokers looking to buy or sell IBC Totes and source the exact container at the best price possible that makes the most logistical sense.
