Our Story

Vancouver IBC Tanks was founded in 2009 by Marcus Wellington, who saw an opportunity to create a sustainable business model around the collection, reconditioning, and resale of Intermediate Bulk Containers. What began as a small operation with just three employees has grown into the Lower Mainland's leading IBC tank supplier.

Our mission from day one has been simple: provide businesses with affordable, quality IBC tanks while promoting environmental sustainability through reconditioning and recycling. We believe that every tank deserves a chance at a second life before being recycled, and we've built our entire operation around this philosophy.

Today, our team of over 40 professionals operates from a 25,000 square foot facility in Burnaby, where we process thousands of tanks annually. We serve hundreds of businesses across industries including agriculture, food and beverage production, chemical manufacturing, landscaping, and more.

Our growth is a testament to our commitment to quality, reliability, and customer service. Whether you need one tank or a hundred, whether you're buying, selling, or need repair services, we approach every interaction with the same dedication to excellence that has defined our company since 2009.

Our Core Values

The principles that guide everything we do

Sustainability

We believe in giving IBC tanks a second life, reducing waste and environmental impact through our comprehensive reconditioning and recycling programs.

Quality

Every tank undergoes our rigorous 12-point inspection process and professional cleaning to ensure it meets the highest standards before reaching customers.

Integrity

Honest pricing, transparent processes, and reliable service you can count on. We stand behind every tank we sell with clear grading and condition reports.

Community

Proudly serving Vancouver businesses since 2009 and contributing to the local economy by creating jobs and supporting sustainable business practices.

Our Commitment to Sustainability

Environmental responsibility isn't just a buzzword for us—it's the foundation of our business model. Every day, we work to extend the lifecycle of IBC tanks and ensure that end-of-life materials are processed responsibly.

By choosing reconditioned tanks over new ones, our customers save money while reducing their environmental footprint. It's a win-win that we're proud to facilitate every day.
