A 330 gallon IBC tote stores 55 more gallons than a 275 on a similar pallet footprint, which makes it the go-to choice when floor space is the constraint. We offer each 330 gallon IBC tote for sale in used or reconditioned condition and in food or non-food grade, along with used rigid 330-gallon models, from one unit to a full truckload.

A caged 330-gallon IBC tote is approximately 48 × 40 × 53 inches and weighs about 150 pounds empty. Exact dimensions are confirmed with your quote. Here is how it compares with the smaller size:
| Spec | 330-gallon caged tote | 275-gallon caged tote |
|---|---|---|
| Approximate dimensions | 48 × 40 × 53 in | 40 × 48 × 46 in |
| Approximate empty weight | 150 lb | 135 lb |
| Approximate water weight when full | About 2,750 lb | About 2,300 lb |
| Extra height vs 275 | About 7 in taller | Baseline |
| Main advantage | More gallons per floor position | Lower height, lighter full load |
Construction is typically the same as the 275: an HDPE inner bottle, galvanized steel tubular cage, steel, plastic or composite pallet base, a top screw cap commonly 6 inches across and a bottom discharge valve commonly 2 inches. For the full side-by-side, see our 275 vs 330 gallon totes guide or browse shop by size.
The 330 is about density. It earns its place wherever the number of pallet spots matters more than the height of each tote:
The trade-offs are height and weight. At roughly 53 inches, a 330 may not clear low doors, mezzanines or racking beams, and its full weight calls for lifting equipment rated with margin. If those limits apply, a 275 gallon IBC tote is the safer fit.
Some operations run both sizes: 330s in the warehouse where floor space is expensive, and 275s on trailers, in sheds and at remote fill points where clearance and weight matter more. If that sounds like your setup, list both sizes on one quote so freight can be combined on the same shipment.
Sold as returned from service; previous contents vary, so review lot history and photos. Shop 330 gallon used IBC totes.
Rinsed and inspected; ask what preparation and component work was done on the lot. Shop 330 gallon reconditioned IBC totes.
Pick 330 gallon food-grade totes for food or ingredient history, or 330 gallon non-food-grade totes for industrial and farm work.
Alongside caged units, we sell used rigid, all-plastic 330-gallon IBC totes. These are rotationally molded with a thick one-piece body and built-in base:
Rigid models avoid cage corrosion and bent tubes, which helps in outdoor, washdown and some chemical environments. Availability is more limited than caged stock. Ask for current stock and photos on your quote.
A used tote is not automatically ready for food or drinking water. For those uses, choose a food-grade lot, confirm previous contents and cleaning, and verify suitability for your application and any regulations.
Before you order, measure the spot the totes will occupy:
The taller bottle and heavier full load put more stress on the lower cage and pallet, so pay extra attention there:
Current lot photos are available on request; photos on the site are representative. See how that works on tote photos and order review.
Because a 330 is tall and bulky, plan the unloading before the truck arrives:
Buyers near Salem County, New Jersey or the Tampa Bay area can skip freight entirely by arranging pickup. See all locations for details.
Caged IBCs are commonly UN-marked (such as 31HA1) when new. Shipping hazardous materials in a reused IBC requires a current periodic test and inspection under 49 CFR. Confirm retest status before regulated use; we do not represent stock as retested unless confirmed in your quote.
Price for a 330 gallon tote for sale depends on condition, grade, the lot's history, caged vs rigid construction, quantity and freight. Quantity tiers lower the per-tote price, and full truckloads of about 60 totes are quoted individually. Pickup by arrangement is available at our Pennsville, NJ and Tampa, FL yards; otherwise we quote LTL freight to your ZIP. Availability and price are confirmed with your quote.
Send the size (330 gallon, caged or rigid), condition, grade, quantity, intended use and delivery ZIP. Include any height or doorway limits so we can flag fit issues early. We confirm the lot, photos, availability and freight in your quote. Request pricing on the request a quote page or call 855-620-3426. For every size and condition, see the main IBC totes guide.
A caged 330-gallon IBC tote is approximately 48 by 40 by 53 inches and weighs about 150 pounds empty. Exact dimensions vary slightly by model and are confirmed with your quote. It shares a similar pallet footprint with the 275 but stands about 7 inches taller.
Filled with water, a 330-gallon tote holds roughly 2,750 pounds of liquid plus about 150 pounds for the tote. Heavier liquids weigh more. Use a forklift or pallet jack rated for the load with margin, and confirm floor, rack and trailer ratings.
Neither is better overall. The 330 stores more per floor position, so you need fewer totes for the same volume. The 275 is shorter and lighter when full, so it fits more spaces and smaller equipment. Choose based on ceiling height, floor space and lifting capacity.
Yes. We sell used rigid, all-plastic 330-gallon IBC totes, including Ultratainer and Square Stackable models. They have no steel cage, which avoids cage corrosion. Availability is more limited than caged totes, so ask about current stock and photos on your quote.
Empty totes stack readily, and filled totes can often be stacked within the rating printed on the unit's label. Stack only on level, solid floors, check cages and pallets for damage and never exceed the label rating. The taller 330 makes an uneven stack less forgiving.
Choose a food-grade 330 if you plan food use, but verify it first. Food-grade means food, beverage or ingredient history and HDPE suitable for food contact. Confirm previous contents and cleaning and check suitability for your product and any regulations before reuse.
A full truckload is about 60 totes and is quoted individually. Quantity tiers lower the per-tote price as orders grow. Send your size, condition, grade, quantity and delivery ZIP and we will confirm lot and freight in the quote.
