Enter your numbers and see what product loss, labor, and disposal around IBC dispensing add up to in a year. Pure arithmetic on your inputs. No assumptions about your operation, and nothing you enter leaves this page.
Example values are shown. Replace them with your own.
How many IBCs your operation empties in a typical month.
Weigh three liners of your thickest product after dispensing and average them. Measured beats estimated.
What the finished product is worth per pound. Use manufactured value, not ingredient cost.
Container size. Used only for the volume context line.
The end-of-container routine: waiting, tilting, working the liner, scraping, handling.
Fully loaded rate: wages plus benefits plus overhead. Many plants use $35 to $50. Use yours.
If your hauler charges by weight, residue makes every liner cost more to throw away. Enter a per-IBC cost or leave 0.
Enter your numbers to see the annual cost.

How this calculates: monthly lost product is residue per IBC times IBCs per month. Annual product loss is monthly lost pounds times product value times 12. Labor is minutes per IBC times IBCs per month, divided by 60, times your loaded rate, times 12. The disposal premium is the per-IBC disposal cost times IBCs per month times 12. The total is those three annual figures added together. No other assumptions are in the math.
