Industries We Serve
Our Consultation Process
From first contact to implementation, we walk you through every step so you get exactly the right IBC solution for your needs.
Initial Discovery Call
We start with a 15-20 minute phone call to understand your situation. What are you storing or transporting? How much volume? What's your timeline? We ask the right questions so we can tailor our recommendations from the start.
Needs Assessment & Site Review
For commercial clients, we schedule an on-site visit to evaluate your storage area, access points, and workflow. For residential or remote customers, we conduct a virtual assessment using photos and video. This step ensures our recommendations fit your physical space and operations.
Custom Recommendation Report
Within 2-3 business days, you receive a written recommendation covering tank type and grade, quantity, layout suggestions, estimated costs, and a delivery timeline. We include alternatives at different price points so you can choose what fits your budget.
Quote & Order Confirmation
Once you've reviewed the recommendation, we provide a formal quote. We walk through every line item, answer remaining questions, and lock in pricing. Orders are confirmed with a simple approval — no complex contracts or commitments required.
Implementation & Follow-Up
We deliver your tanks, assist with placement, and make sure everything is set up correctly. Two weeks after delivery, we follow up to confirm everything is working as expected. Ongoing support is always available if your needs change.
Case Studies
Real results from real customers. Here's how our consultation process helped businesses and individuals find the right IBC solutions.
Coastal Farm — Irrigation Overhaul
Challenge: A 40-acre vegetable farm near Conway was spending $800/month on municipal water for irrigation and needed a cost-effective rainwater harvesting system.
Solution: We designed a 12-tank gravity-fed irrigation system using reconditioned food-grade IBCs, connected with 2-inch PVC manifolds and fitted with float valves.
Result: Water costs dropped 65% in the first season. The farmer recouped the full investment in under 5 months and expanded to 20 tanks the following year.
Craft Brewery — Process Water Storage
Challenge: A Myrtle Beach craft brewery needed food-grade intermediate storage for rinse water and cleaning solutions but had very limited floor space in their production area.
Solution: We recommended stackable food-grade IBCs with custom valve configurations and designed a two-tier stacking layout that fit within their existing footprint.
Result: The brewery gained 550 gallons of process water storage without expanding their facility. Cleaning cycle efficiency improved 30% thanks to on-demand rinse water access.
General Contractor — Job Site Water
Challenge: A regional construction company was renting water tanks for dust suppression and concrete mixing at $150/week per site across 6 active job sites.
Solution: We set up a rotating inventory of 24 reconditioned industrial-grade IBCs on a delivery-and-pickup schedule synced to their project timelines.
Result: Annual water container costs dropped from $46,800 to under $9,000. The contractor now owns their tank inventory with a replacement program for damaged units.
Rural Homesteader — Rainwater Collection
Challenge: A homesteader on a 5-acre property outside Aynor had no municipal water access and was hauling water in 55-gallon drums for their garden and livestock.
Solution: We designed a 4-tank rainwater collection system with gutter-fed downspout diverters, first-flush filters, and a small 12V pump for garden hose pressure.
Result: The homesteader now collects over 1,100 gallons per rain event, enough to sustain their garden and 12 head of livestock through typical dry spells without any hauling trips.
Consultation FAQ
Is the initial consultation really free?
Yes, 100%. The initial discovery call and basic recommendation are always free, whether you're a homeowner with a single-tank question or a business planning a large-scale system. We only charge for extended on-site assessments or custom engineering work.
How long does the full consultation process take?
For straightforward needs, you can go from initial call to delivery in under a week. More complex projects — like system design or multi-site planning — typically take 2-3 weeks from first contact to implementation, depending on scope and scheduling.
Do I need to know what type of tank I need before calling?
Not at all. That's exactly what the consultation is for. Just tell us what you're trying to accomplish — store water, transport chemicals, set up irrigation — and we'll recommend the right tank type, grade, and quantity.
Can you help with regulatory questions and permits?
Yes. We're familiar with EPA, DHEC, and local regulations around container reuse, food-grade storage, rainwater harvesting, and chemical containment. We'll point you to the right permits and help ensure your setup is compliant.
Do you consult for businesses outside the Myrtle Beach area?
Yes. While on-site visits are limited to our Southeast service region, we conduct virtual consultations nationwide. Phone and video assessments work well for most projects, and we can coordinate delivery from our inventory or through shipping partners.
What if my needs change after the consultation?
Plans change — we get it. Our recommendations are flexible, and we're happy to adjust quantities, swap tank grades, or redesign layouts as your situation evolves. There's no charge for revising a recommendation before you order.
