Container Supply Desk, Latin America
RB Advertising sorts and supplies used clothing bales and loads export containers today. Pick a 20ft or 40ft container, fix the bale packing at 45 kg or 100 lb, and ship wholesale second hand clothes on CIF or FOB terms quoted per booking for Central America, South America, and the Caribbean.
Container size comparison
RB Advertising sorts and supplies used clothing bales and ships export containers today, from a factory base in Tagum City, Davao del Norte, Philippines. As a wholesale second hand clothes container supplier, our desk works from the sorting floor outward, so your container is planned around the grade lines that are running, not around a catalogue page.
A second hand clothing factory direct container load is filled at the floor that sorted it. Grade lines run from cream and Grade A through Grade B, mixed tropical, and summer mix, to credential clothing in sorted and unsorted form, hydraulically pressed at 45 kg or 100 lb before the container is loaded.
We serve Latin America, covering Central America, South America, and the Caribbean, and quote named destination ports including Puerto Quetzal and Santo Tomas de Castilla in Guatemala, Puerto Cortes in Honduras, and Iquique ZOFRI in Chile.
Two load sizes, one loading method. What changes is the length of the container on the trailer bed and how much of your grade range travels in a single sailing. Both are quoted on CIF or FOB terms.
A shorter container that suits a first booking, a lane you are still testing, or a single grade line you want to sell through before scaling the mix.
The double length container for an established lane, where one sailing should carry the full range of grades you sell rather than a single line.
From the first grade brief to the document set that travels with the load. Each stage is confirmed in writing before the next one starts, so nothing is loaded against a verbal understanding.
Send the grades you want, the proportion if it is a mix, the bale packing at 45 kg or 100 lb, the container size, and the destination port. A short brief is enough for the desk to start.
The desk matches your grade lines against current sorting output and confirms whether your destination port accepts used clothing on the terms you need. Nothing is promised before that check is done.
You receive the loading plan for the container size you chose, together with the quotation on CIF or FOB terms. Bale count, net weight, price, and minimum order are all confirmed per order here, because each one moves with the lane.
Stock is sorted to the agreed grade, then hydraulically pressed to the packing fixed at quotation. Bales are weighed one at a time so the count can be traced from the floor to the container.
Every bale is labelled and recorded against your booking number as it is pressed and stacked. Loading photographs are taken as the container fills, so you see the load that actually left the bay.
The container is loaded under our own supervision and the export document set is issued against the recorded bale count. Your customs broker can begin destination clearance before the vessel berths.
Everything below is confirmed per order rather than published as a blanket figure. Grade and packing set the loading plan, and the destination port sets the rest, so a single national number would only fit one booking.
| Specification | Detail | How it is fixed |
|---|---|---|
| Container sizes | 20ft and 40ft | Chosen at booking |
| Bale packings | 45 kg and 100 lb | Chosen at booking, then held for the whole load |
| Grades available | Cream, Grade A, Grade B, mixed tropical, summer mix, and credential clothing in sorted and unsorted form | Confirmed per order |
| Terms | CIF and FOB, quoted per booking | Fixed at quotation |
| Price | Confirmed per order | Moves with the grade, the packing, the container size, and the destination port |
| Minimum order | Confirmed per order | Moves with the lane and the grade mix you ask for |
A mixed container is planned, not improvised. Four things get settled before a single bale is pressed.
Tell the desk the share you want for each grade. Where the mix works inside one container we confirm the loading plan, and where it does not we say so before you commit.
You set the share of each grade. A load weighted to cream sells differently from one weighted to Grade B, so the split is agreed in writing first.
Light tropical stock presses differently from heavier wovens. The loading plan is built around the mix you ask for rather than a fixed template.
Mixed loads are pressed at 45 kg or 100 lb per bale. The packing is fixed at quotation so the bale count and the documents agree.
The grade mix, bale count, and net weight that leave the loading bay are the same figures printed on your export papers.
Four records leave the loading bay with your booking number on them, so the load can be reconciled at destination without a back and forth.
The number of bales loaded, recorded against your booking number as the container is filled.
Each bale labelled individually, so the grade and the packing can be identified on arrival.
Photographs taken during loading, sent with the booking pack so you see the container as it was filled.
The documents your customs broker needs to start clearance, issued against the recorded bale count and net weight.
Your side is a short brief. Our side is the loading plan, the terms, and the lane check. Both stay in writing from the first exchange to the document set.
The questions our export desk handles most often from trading companies, importers, and regional wholesalers.
Yes. Grades, bale packing, and container size are agreed per booking. Tell the export desk which grades you want and in what proportion, and we confirm whether the mix works inside one 40ft load before you commit to anything.
Bales are hydraulically pressed and packed at 45 kg or 100 lb. The packing is fixed at quotation, so the bale count and the net weight printed on your documents match the load that arrives at your port.
Our desk quotes CIF and FOB per booking. A CIF quotation carries ocean freight and insurance to the port you name, including Puerto Quetzal and Santo Tomas de Castilla in Guatemala, Puerto Cortes in Honduras, and Iquique ZOFRI in Chile.
That figure moves with the bale packing, the grade mix, and the container size, so it is confirmed per order rather than published as a single number. The loading plan is issued with your quotation, before anything is committed.
You receive the recorded bale count, bale labels, loading photographs taken as the container filled, and the export document set your customs broker needs. The same count runs through the labels, the photographs, and the documents.
We sort, press, and load from our own floor in Tagum City, Davao del Norte, Philippines, so there is no trading layer between the sorting line and your container. CIF and FOB terms are quoted per booking.
