Plastic Cones: wholesale price
A typical US business buyer pays a median of $4.50 per unit at small order quantities, falling to $0.20 at volume, on a typical 30-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.
Median price by order quantity
| Order size | Median /unit |
|---|---|
| 500–999 units | $4.50 |
| 1,000–4,999 units | $2.50 |
| 5,000–9,999 units | $1.40 |
| 10,000–24,999 units | $0.75 |
| 25,000–99,999 units | $0.40 |
| 100,000+ units | $0.20 |
What moves the price
For plastic cones, the drivers are foam thickness, cover material, water resistance, attachment method, noise reduction, string material, pulley vs rope style, handle design — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For mid-range custom-printed plastic agility/marker cones, the biggest price drivers are cone size and weight, whether the cone is injection-molded versus lighter PVC/PE, and the print method/number of colors; packaging and palletized freight also matter at low volumes. Realistic supplier routes are US traffic-safety wholesalers for plain or lightly branded cones, and China/OEM marketplaces for custom-printed bulk runs with landed-equivalent pricing; published wholesale examples show about $5.25-$32.50 per cone for traffic-safety cones in small-to-pallet quantities, while factory marketplaces list much lower piece prices at very high MOQs. The ladder above is an extrapolated mid-range custom configuration anchored to those published wholesale and factory quotes, so confidence is limited.
