Tamper Evident Can: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $3.20 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.19 at volume, on a typical 45-day lead time. These medians come from published supplier pricing. Treat them as a starting point for a sourcing conversation rather than a binding quote.

What moves the price
For tamper evident can, the drivers are valve type, pressure venting, can format, liner, print finish, oxygen transmission rate, MOQ, lid film type — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
Quoted supplier pricing shows the biggest swings come from material (plastic vs. metal), capacity, and whether the jerrycan is custom-printed or tamper-evident; US-facing wholesale listings like ULINE sit much higher than import-market quotes because they include domestic stock, compliance, and smaller MOQ economics. For a mid-range custom-printed HDPE jerrycan, the most realistic sourcing routes are China-marketplace manufacturers and import brokers for lower tiers, or domestic wholesale/distribution channels for faster replenishment but materially higher unit costs. Prices on supplier marketplaces also drop sharply at 5,000+ and 10,000+ units, with the cheapest published figures tied to high-volume factory quotations rather than branded or stocked US inventory.
