When exploring used pallet options, you’ll often encounter the term Grade A. But what does it really mean? Simply put, Grade A pallets represent the highest standard in the used pallet market.

Knowing the weight of an empty IBC tote is important for: Shipping logistics – total load calculations for trucks or containers. Warehouse storage – ensuring racks, pallets, or floors can safely support full totes. Handling equipment – forklifts and pallet jacks must be rated to lift filled weights. The weight of the tote is only part of the equation—when filled, a 275-gallon tote of water can weigh over 2,200 pounds, and a 330-gallon tote can weigh more than 2,750 pounds.

IBC totes, short for Intermediate Bulk Containers, are reusable, pallet-mounted containers designed for bulk storage and transport of liquids, semi-solids, and dry goods. They typically come in 275-gallon and 330-gallon capacities, with a plastic HDPE inner bottle encased in a protective steel cage.

The acronym IBC stands for Intermediate Bulk Container. These containers are designed to hold hundreds of gallons of liquids or bulk materials, sitting between small drums and full-size tanker trucks—hence the word “intermediate.” The term “tote” is widely used in the United States to describe the cube-shaped IBC with a plastic HDPE inner bottle, a steel cage for protection, and a pallet base for easy handling.
