App allows buyers and sellers to work with the Container Exchanger site even from remote locations, reports Container Exchanger

Atlanta, GA -- (SBWIRE) -- 10/17/2014 -- Container Exchanger, a company that specializes in finding buyers and sellers of reusable industrial packaging, has just released an app for iOS and Android mobile device users that makes it even faster and easier to buy and sell their containers, pallets, and other used industrial goods. This will help streamline the process for its customers and simplify both ends of the transaction spectrum.

"Many manufacturers and other companies need durable containers to store finished products and other goods," explained David Madden of Container Exchanger. "The ups and downs of business cycles, however, mean that they rarely need the same amount of containers at all times. When a big order comes in, a company may need hundreds or even thousands of containers to keep everything organized and safe from damage. Once the high period passes, however, all of those containers end up sitting and taking up space for nothing. For companies with cycles like this, it makes sense to buy in extra containers when needed and then sell them back off during the slow times. Our company makes it easy to accomplish this by serving as a broker between those who need containers and those who need to get rid of them."

Under the standard website interface, setting up sale listings requires the seller to take pictures of its containers, log into the Container Exchanger site, and then upload them along with relevant information like descriptions and prices. The Container Exchanger App makes this easier by allowing people to use their cell phone camera to take the pictures. It also offers pre-filled forms for buying and selling, fast search capabilities, and the ability to make quick updates to ads. This combination of phone applications features, in addition to the freedom of making these changes anywhere with data service offers a huge leap forward in ease of use and functionality.

"One of the issues many of our customers face is the need to be able to access our site from remote locations in the warehouse or even multiple locations across their operations," Madden noted. "This new app eliminates the tether to the office and lets customers do everything from wherever they happen to be. Typically, they'll upload an ad right from wherever they took the picture.

Both new and used packaging is brokered by Container Exchanger, and both customers and sellers of containers packaging will appreciate and get value from the recently-released app. Sellers of containers often have large fields and warehouses where they store durable packaging like bins, so they need to be able to log on from these locations. For buyers, the app simplifies ordering by allowing it to be combined with normal inventory checks. When someone goes into a storage area and sees that the company is about to run out of something, he or she can quickly log on via the app to request more.

Boosted rates for a number of popular products will help the container broker's services make even better business sense for many companies, Container Exchanger reports

Atlanta, GA -- (SBWIRE) -- 07/11/2014 -- Container Exchanger, a container brokerage service for manufacturers and commercial customers, announced that the company is now offering higher rates to sellers of a variety of used container types. Improvements in the company's already-efficient logistics and processing operations have allowed it to increase the rates paid for a number of the most-demanded container types, and these rates are effective immediately. Container Exchanger is one of the nation's leading companies of its type and boasts a long list of satisfied customers on both the buying and selling sides of the operation.

"Despite already paying the industry's top prices for most of the containers we work with," company representative Ronald Dod stated, "we're pleased to announce that, from this moment on, we will be able to offer even more generous terms to sellers of a number of high-volume container types." Some environmental groups estimate that plastic and paper packaging adds up to as much as 30% of the total volume of garbage found in landfills worldwide. Container Exchanger's services help to cut down on such waste by making it easier for manufacturers and their customers to reuse containers and other packaging that would otherwise be discarded. In addition to improving environmental footprints in this way, customers of the company save money by either receiving something back for the containers they sell or paying less for used containers than they would for brand-new ones.

Container Exchanger buys and sells a wide variety of used containers. Some of the company's most popular products with both sellers and buyers are metal bins which are used for shipping and storing delicate and high-value industrial products. Container Exchanger already pays extremely competitive prices for these bins and tubs made of corrugated steel and other metals, and the company's new basic rate schedule will provide even more generous compensation for sellers of some of these items. At the same time, the company will maintain the low prices and excellent service for buyers of used containers which have made it such an important source for many manufacturers, shippers, and other clients.

"For our clients, Container Exchanger means two things: a greener operation and a stronger bottom line," Dod concluded, "and with our improved buying prices on a number of containers, even more companies out there are going to benefit from using our services." In addition to buying and selling a wide variety of used, usable containers, Container Exchanger now also buys containers, pallets, and totes which are fit only for scrap. These products are recycled as appropriate, whether that might be for repairing other containers or for melting down into basic materials, as with some plastic containers. In any case, Container Exchanger once again pays sellers the highest available rates for these scrap products. Buyers and sellers who wish to investigate the company's services and product lines may do so conveniently at its well-maintained website at www.containerexchanger.com, where an active blog also delves into container-related news and opportunities.
