Directions

Getting to Our Facility

From I-80 (Bay Bridge / East Bay)

Take the 5th Street exit toward SoMa. Continue south on 5th Street, then turn left onto Bluxome Street. Our facility is on the right side, approximately two blocks east. Look for the loading dock entrance with IBC signage.

From US-101 (South Bay / Peninsula)

Follow US-101 North into San Francisco. Take the 4th Street exit and continue north. Turn right onto Bluxome Street. Our facility is about three blocks east on the left side of the street. The loading dock faces Bluxome.

Via BART

The nearest BART station is Powell Street, approximately a 15-minute walk south to our location. Alternatively, take Muni bus lines 30 or 45 from the station area. The 4th & King Caltrain station is also within walking distance at roughly 10 minutes.

Parking Information

Street parking is available on Bluxome Street and surrounding blocks (metered, 2-hour limit during business hours). For deliveries and pickups, use our designated loading zone directly in front of the facility entrance — no meter required for active loading. A public parking garage is also available at 5th & Howard, two blocks north.

Our Facility

The IBC San Francisco SoMa Hub

Our SoMa facility serves as the operational heart of IBC San Francisco. Located at 157 Bluxome Street in San Francisco's historic South of Market district, the facility houses our full reconditioning line, inspection stations, and ready-to-ship inventory.

The ground-floor layout features a street-level loading dock that accommodates flatbed trucks, box trucks, and personal vehicles for will-call pickups. Inside, our reconditioning area includes triple-wash stations with closed-loop water recovery, pressure testing bays, and a dedicated valve and gasket replacement workbench.

We maintain an on-site inventory of 200+ IBCs across all grades and conditions, meaning most orders can be fulfilled the same day you place them. Visitors are welcome during business hours — we're happy to walk you through our process and help you select the right containers for your needs.
