What moves the price
For plastic dairy jug, the drivers are capacity, material, handle type, UN rating — the same item can land at either end of the band depending on how those are specified.
For plastic dairy jugs, the biggest price drivers are capacity (32 oz, 64 oz, 1 gal), wall weight/grams, neck finish/closure type, and whether the jug is a standard stock item or a custom printed or custom-colored run. US-facing distributors quote roughly $0.63-$1.29 at smaller bulk tiers for standard natural HDPE milk jugs, while Alibaba-style import listings show roughly $0.44-$0.86 for 10,000+ units and custom-mold/manufacturer routes can go lower at very large volumes. UN-rated or heavier industrial variants, plus custom printing and handle or cap changes, generally move pricing upward; the most realistic routes are US distributors for 500-10,000 units and direct OEM/import sourcing for 10,000+.
