IBC totes in Perris, California

The edge where the warehouses stop

The sources name warehousing and distribution for Perris and also agriculture. Those two want opposite things: a distribution building clears totes, and a farm wants a few for water. The match is worth making locally where it can be.

ZIPs here include 92570 and 92571. The same logistics operators the City of Moreno Valley lists next door also serve Perris, so sites tend to look alike.

Farm side and dock side

The two sides use the same request. What differs is what you tell the form.

Practical points

• Give the nearest cross street on I-215 if the dock has no clear address.
• Photograph the plate and the valve.
• Say whether the totes were ever outdoors; see desert sun and UV.
• Say how many people can load and with what.

Warehousing, distribution and agriculture

The sources name warehousing, distribution and agriculture for Perris. A distribution site clears totes and cares about plates and dates. An agricultural site wants a few totes for water and cares about history. The same form serves both; what changes is what you tell it.

If the dock has no clear street address, give the nearest cross street. Say whether the totes were ever outdoors, and how many people can load them with what equipment.

Matching farm and dock

A dock that clears sound totes with a known, mild history can suit a farm that wants a few for water, if the history is written down. The grader and the water totes page show how that history is described.

Dust, gates and the first photograph

Wipe the fill neck and cap before you photograph a tote that has stood in a dusty yard, so that the thread and gasket can be seen. If the site sits behind a farm gate, say who can open it and when, and whether the track to the totes is paved.

Carrying a tote safely

Never lift a tote by its cage bars or drag it across gravel. Use forks under the pallet, keep them level and keep the tote low while moving. A tote that rocks on the forks needs a wider stance or a second look at the base.

What to write on the first line

State your trade first, then the count and size, then the last contents and the use you have in mind. A distribution site and a farm can write nearly the same four lines and receive very different answers, because the history and the use differ.
