What moves the price
For sealed tub, the drivers are capacity, airtight seal, material, wheeled base, scoop inclusion, custom labeling, closure type, lid style — the spec them differently and the same item lands at either end of the band.
Published wholesale pricing for similar plastic tubs and airtight food containers shows steep price breaks from low hundreds to tens of thousands of units, with landed/import-style quotes on Alibaba-like marketplaces often undercutting US catalog pricing at scale. The biggest price drivers are resin/material (PET vs HDPE/PP), sealing method (tamper-evident vs airtight), closure complexity, and whether printing/custom labeling or accessory parts like a scoop or wheeled base are included; those extras push the quote toward the high end of each tier. Realistic supplier routes are US wholesale packaging distributors for faster, lower-MOQ sourcing and Asian OEM/ODM suppliers for true custom-printed tubs at 5,000+ units, with 4–8 week typical production plus freight rather than immediate stock shipment.
