ABSTRACT:
A reusable container system comprising a container for holding a bulk quantity of liquid or other fluent material. The container has top, bottom and side walls, a port in the top wall of the container, a closure for the port having a tamper-evident connection with the container for indicating removal of the closure from the container, and a suction tube assembly attached to the closure and extending down into the container. A one-way check valve in the suction tube assembly permits flow of liquid out of the container but prevents flow into the container through the suction tube. The closure on the port is formed for releasable connection of a pump thereto whereby, after arrival of the container at a location where the contents of the container are to be dispensed, a pump may be releasably connected to the closure and then actuated to pump liquid from the container via the suction tube assembly. When the container is emptied the pump may be disconnected from the closure for transport of the container to another location for refilling. A method of using the system is also disclosed.
