What that means for totes

Our reading: a town with cement plants will see totes that held admixtures, oils and cleaners. Say what yours held, and send the safety data sheet if you have one, so the grade can be set correctly.

A tote last used for a construction chemical is usually not a candidate for food or drinking water.

Medley is tiny by population and large by industry. Our reading: a request from here is almost always from a business, so name the company type, the last contents and the loading dock, and expect a conversation about the safety data sheet.

Before you ask from Medley, find the safety data sheet for whatever the tote held and read section 2 and section 13. Cement admixtures and oils can be hazardous to people and plants, and the sheet is what lets us say which grade the tote can be, if any.

With so few residents and so many plants, a single clear email from a facility manager, naming the product, the count and the dock, is the whole conversation.

Our reading: a town with a cement plant, a rock plant and warehouses is mostly business requests, with very few households. Cement-related totes tend to hold admixtures and cleaners, so the note on last contents matters. Dust and alkaline residue can cling to a tote's inside, so mention if it has been rinsed, and add a photo of the plate and cage if you have one; the description in the form is enough for a first grade.

For a plant yard with many totes, group them by last contents before describing them, since a single paragraph for each group beats an item list for every tote.
